    Does anyone know a cork shop that does macaroons?

    Looking for a few for on top of a christmas dessert. I could make them, but I only want about 3 or 4, and my normal batch is around 30.

    There used to be a shop in the market, but they closed a while ago. I think the place on washington street... petit fours, also did them. Also closed.

    Anywhere else?

    Was that the place in by the entrance on Princes Street? Sad to hear it closed, it always looked so pretty. But I didn't think there was enough of a market to sustain it :(.

    They have them in the dessert section of marks & spencer at the moment, I think it's a packet of 8 with vanilla, raspberry & chocolate, they are around 8e for the box though and they are quite small. Must check out the place in Douglas, didn't even know about it.

    The cafe La Croissanterie in Merchant's Quay has them, think they're 3 for 2.50 or something similar. They do take away ;)

    The shop that was in the English market has taken a stall in the Christmas market on the grand parade.
    Seems expensive to me for what they are but I'm not an expert
