We recently discovered a charming little bakery that makes cupcakes, cookies and, of course, macarons along with many other sweet treats in Balmain East in NSW. We introduced ourselves to co-owner Rachel Louie to find out more about the little treasure that is Les Soeurs Macarons.
I started Les SÅ“urs Macarons in 2016 with my sister in Brisbane, she began when we asked her about the humble beginnings of the business. I lived in Japan in 2010 and came across a macaron for the first time. It was the most delicate and delicious sweet I've had. Came back to Australia and it wasn't a big hit then.
So, I decided to give it a go making some myself. And that's how my journey started with LSM. It's been an eventful 6 years in Brisbane baking on the side along with my full-time job as a high school teacher. Now I've relocated to Sydney to study Patisserie full time and pursue my baking passion.
We then asked her what she loves about the business. I love that I can create something out of basic ingredients, into something I find pretty, she enthused. I love macarons, cakes and fresh blooms. Working with these components really makes me happy, and even more happy when I see my customers living the outcome - Visually and the taste!
