Laduree Malaysia plans to open in Pavilion KL

With their ganache filling, Laduree macarons come in a variety of flavours, ranging from classics (chocolate, vanilla, lemon, coffee, salted butter caramel and rose petal) to seasonal (chestnut, Morello cherry, lime coconut and matcha).

The brands beginnings go back to 1862 when Louis Ernest Ladurée, a miller from southwest France, opened a small bakery in Paris. In 1930, his grandson Pierre Desfontaines came up with the original idea of double-decker macaroons by sticking two shells together with a ganache filling. Since then, Ladurée has been selling around 20,000 macaroons every day all over the world.

International expansion began in 2005 with London. Today, the brand has stores in 17 countries including Thailand, Hong Kong, Japan, the Philippines, Singapore, South Korea and Taiwan.
