This is the sample of my French Macaron Box for Halloween for my bakery, Tart. I'm making a limited amount, and I'm selling the boxes as a package deal for $26.00 for 16 macarons.If ur gonna be in the Houston area, send me a e-mail, and I'll set aside one for you, my bloggy jelly beans!
Sorry you can't see the box-I'll have more pics up by Friday. It's a black heart shaped box with inspiration from the Nirvana song, Heart Shaped Box. and the book by Stephen King's son-Joe Hill(alias).
The lyrics below are from the song will be on the inside cover as well, I just don't have it on this sample. I've always thought of the song as a kind of "anti-valentine", or a Jack the Pumpkin King's theme music for taking over Valentine's Day. There's also a guide on the inside cover like those in a Valentine's day chocolate box labeling the flavors. The 'Tart' name is written across the lid top in red paint that's dripping-it's morbidly fabulous. I tie each with a sheer red ribbon, and the inside has red cellophane, and a small info booklet with info on each flavor(I'll take some pics).The flavors are: Fleur De Sel Caramel, Fudge, Candy Corn(white cookie top-orange filling-yellow cookie on bottom-the colorings of actual Candy Corns) , Cotton Candy, Absinthe, Pumpkin Spice, Vanilla Bean, Reese's Peanut Butter Cup, and Red Velvet.
The Absinthe one is made with real Absinthe that has had the alcohol cooked away, and I found a decorative pastry cream liquid that I put on them that actually glows in the dark-FANtasmic!

There will be some really incredible pics up on Friday here and on my Tart Bakery site, so come back to see!Is anybody gonna dress up for Halloween?
XOXO Penny
