Today, in honor of Bastille Day, Glitter City Sweets introduces a new line of French pastries.


French macarons - a crispy almond meringue shell that yields to a chewy interior and sandwiched with rich, flavorful buttercream. So yummy. Available in Vanilla, Chocolate, Pomegranate and Rose - yes, rose, and trust me the incredible texture of the macaron combined with the unique flavor or roses is INCREDIBLE!


Madeleines - Proust's favorite cookie is actually a little tea cake. It's distincive scalloped shape is the reason for the crispy edges and light cake center. Buttery, luxurious and delicious. These scream for a lovely afternoon with a cup of tea and a good book. Available in the Traditional flavor (vanilla with just a hint of fresh lemon zest), an out of this world Orange and Spice (perfect with a cup of orange pekoe perhaps?) and Lavender, which has a wonderful fragrance and taste.


Sablés - These are a distinctive French butter cookie. Different from shortbread in that they are enriched with fresh eggs, they are a lovely crisp cookie that crumbles in your mouth. Sablé means sand in french and that sandy texture is what makes this cookie so delightful. Claim to this cookie varies up and down the French coast, but all we know is that the lovely combination of butter, eggs and sea salt is brilliant. We make ours in three flavors, Vanilla Bean, Ginger and Pistachio.

These cookies have been in development for several months, perfecting our recipes so that when you bite one of our French cookies, you truly get a taste of Paris! Here is what our French cookie fans said about our macarons:

"The beauty of French macaroons is their texture. A perfect one brings pure joy in biting into it. These French macaroons do exactly that! Beware, though: they're not just addicting, they become a religion." Tina Y., Las Vegas, NV

"Best macarons in the West! Biting into the thin, crisp shell and finding the gooey goodness brought me right back to the streets of Paris. As good, if not better, than any Parisian macaron I've had." Lauren P., Las Vegas, NV

We hope that all of our fans enjoy them as well!

For the cold December and January months, we had our famous marshmallows in Peppermint and we even had them available in mini mallow size to pair with gourmet hot chocolate. it was a tasty way to warm up!

Moving forward in December, here is the platter of sweet goodness we created for our customers to bring to holiday parties and soirées. It's full of cookies, cupcakes, handmade fudge and praline candies.

We can create custom platters for any occasion from breakfast meetings to brunch to birthdays. Just ask us and we can make your event even sweeter!

Yes, I said it, despite my best intentions to blog every day (or at least every week) we've been so busy making stuff that I haven't gotten a chance to actually write about the stuff we are doing. Ugh!

So I'll try to be better. Here is sort of what we've been up to. I'm going back to December since that's where this train jumped it's track.

These are some custom cookies we designed for Lauren, who had them made for a Vegas bachelorette party. And what's a bachelorette party without a stripper? This guy is sweet! From his hand painted abs to his custom printed thong, he is one hunky cookie! We even tucked a few (fake) bills in with him to get the party started.

Thanks for the challenge Lauren and congratulations Dawn!
