My friend just brought us some Laduree macaroons from Paris. You can now get them in the airport.
He got them Sunday and gave them to us Tuesday night.
A few were broken, but they were still good. Not as great as the day that you get them but still yummy.
I put them in a pyrex sealed bowl in the fridge. Three days later they are still tasty.
I think that they are a great present.

Mine didn't make it back home, they were all crumbled and 20 euros wasted. Take back something more tangible that you know will make it - lavendar fragrance, French chocolates or a scarf.
