I have a riddle for you. What’s crispy on the outside, chewy and moist on the inside, and resembles cute little buns?

Here, I’ll give you a hint: they come in a plethora of irresistible colors and flavors!

Okay, just one last clue. They are French!

If macaron is the first thing that pops in your mind, my, you must have a sweet tooth!

When I first laid my eyes on the macarons at Bakerzin, I fell in love with these sweet pastries. Just toss in a cup of joe and you’re all set for a delightful teatime snack!

Macarons (not to be confused with macaroon or macaroni) are made with egg white, almond powder and icing sugar, with creamy butter cream and ganache.

Macarons (assorted flavors)
~~$1.60~~ $1 each for February ’09

On first impression, I would have thought that the green one is matcha (green tea), but it’s actually pistachio with white chocolate! The pretty one with speckles of pink is “scarlet”, a mixture of vanilla and strawberry. It’s heavenly! But my favorites are, hands down, the chocolate ones.

The bakers here really know their chocolate. You get your chocolate macarons with a touch of lemon, brandied cherry, whiskey, coffee butter cream and even banana! The chocolate ones are really the best of the lot.

After whetting your appetite, I feel it’s only right to share with you this: Bakerzin has slashed the price of these babies from $1.60 to a dollar each. The promotion is valid only in the month of February. So hurry!

Bakerzin's macaron promotion

(last month, they slashed the price of their phenomenal warm chocolate cake to $4.80. I’m looking forward to another great promotion next month!)

  Every flavor! You would probably need a few “helpers” to finish the food for you. Haha! It’d be awesome if you come back and tell us which of those is the best! Okay??

Here’s a handy tip: If you buy 6 in a pre-pack (flavours non-selectable, alas), it’s $5 SGD, which is still a great deal! Got some the other day at Suntec, was a hit with my younger cousins.

  Oh yeah the macarons are a permanent fixture on their menu. It’s just that after this month the promotional price of $1 may no longer apply.

I love the chocolate & pistachio (thou my friend say that it tastes like almond?!?!?!). The rose (in pink) has a sweet smell thou.

Too bad, today is the last day of promotion!

Hi,
Just wanted to share… if u are a real macaron lover, bakerinz is really terrible. I saw the promotion and went to try it and the texture of the macaron is just not right… if u really want to try good macarons, try Cedele. Its at wheelock, raffles city etc… their price is more expensive of coz… 6 for about $15. but packaging is nice. makes nice gifts too.. buy one from bakerinz and one from cedele and eat it one after another… u will know the difference. =) Bakerzin cakes are nice but their macarons just cannot make it. =) Try the lemon, dark chocolate, coffee ones from cedele.

haha, yea i agree, bakerzin is not the best, seriously!

i think you mean canele? their macarons are lovely but overpriced. I personally adore macarons! The best macaron i ever ate was my first, it was a huge chocolate macaron ( burger size i am serious) in france at a petrol kiosk, believe it or not xD

I’ve been seeing Bakezin all over the place. From Boon Lay to Tampines.
I’ve seen their macaron.
After reading all the comments I want some of what they have and I want some more. My wedding anniversary is around the corner. I think Bakezin will be a nice quiet place to spend a quiet dinner with the significant other. Beside the pasta, any other recommendation, steak perhaps. The hot chocolate cake without doubt will be a must. I think I will get the macaron this evening at Tampines 1. Is there any promotion on?
