Macarons from TWG Tea, Pavilion KL
The TWG macarons I tried from the Singapore outlet was pretty decent, so I wanted to see how the ones in KL fared. Priced at RM4 each, there are 8 flavours to choose from - I went for these 6 flavours; napoleon tea and caramel, camelot tea & praline, earl grey fortune & chocolate, bain de roses tea, 1837 black tea &blackcurrant, and grand wedding tea, passion fruit & coconut. All their macarons are infused with their signature teas, and are described as a "crispy almond biscuit with a soft centre".
I like the look of their outlet in Pavilion KL
The macarons here definitely had nicer feet compared to SG, however texture wise, it was not to my liking - some were too crunchy, some were too soft. My favorite flavour was again the bain de roses, followed by passion fruit and caramel.

wow, TWG now has a foothold in Pavilion - one of my favourite malls in KL :) will be there!
ReplyDeleteCOOL, you can dine in the restaurant too.
DeleteI tried their macarons before, and the one I tried was a bit too soft. I rather it is too crunchy than soft. hehehe.
ReplyDeleteHaha I rather it be perfect!
DeleteI think I've grown out of these already - not that excited by them anymore. Would rather eat something else...
ReplyDeleteI wouldn't really go hunting for them anymore, but I wouldn't say no to a good macaron.
Deletenot very consistent macarons but they shore look pretty! Another great reason to visit Pavilion! ;D
ReplyDeleteLove the place though.. nice place to be seen! Haha.
DeleteThis is a great place for tea time. Thank you for sharing!!!
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome!
DeleteYen,
ReplyDeleteLove love the tea infused macaroons : )
mui
The tea flavours are quite mild.
DeleteSure they all look pretty. I love tea infused macarons and I make them myself at home. Gotta try to make passion fruit ones when I get fresh passion fruit next time. Now, I wonderful if there's a TWG store here in the States. I'm going to check it out.
ReplyDeleteIf I'm not mistaken, most of their restaurants are around the Asia region. I can't make macarons so I still have to buy them!!
DeleteWow it looks damn so delicious! It's like my dream to be a Sydney's top class cafe shop with my friends and we would have a gala time there enjoying potato wafers and coffee. Nice article. It made me feel hungry now!

Hi hun, I was wondering where to find good macarons around KL as I stumbled upon your blog. Between TWG Tea's macarons and Nathalie's Gourmet's, do you mind letting me know which is better? :)
ReplyDeletePersonally, I prefer Nathalie's. Babycakes also do a good salted caramel one.
