History
Macaroons are thought to have originated in an Italian monastery; the
name comes from the Italian word macarone or maccherone meaning 'fine paste'.
Later the chefs of Catherine de' Medici took the recipe to France in 1533
at the time of her marriage to Henri II.
In Switzerland
the macaroon is known as the Luxemburgerli and in Japan they are known as
makarons. They are particularly fashionable in cities such as New York and
Singapore.
