Cultural Tip
Macarons are a French confection that became a trendy treat in Brazil, especially in upscale cafés of São Paulo and Rio. While the French version is delicate and pastel‑colored, Brazilian bakers often add local flavors like passion fruit, doce de leite, or açaí. Remember that the word ‘macaron’ stays masculine in Portuguese, so adjectives must be masculine plural (perfeitos).
