I love macaroons as much as the next person who enjoys sweets and coconut-flavored things. But you know what’s even better than macaroons? Custaroons! Specifically, Gigi’s custaroons. You will probably see a lot of Gigi’s Custaroons in food blogs. Gigi Gaerlan herself, surfed for food blogs offering food bloggers a chance to taste her Custaroons. Gigi claims to have invented the recipe and coined word Custaroons but you might ask….
What are custaroons? They’re essentially macaroons – tiny cupcakes made out of dessicated coconut – but instead of a milk, egg, and butter base, they’re made out of a soft and creamy custard and topped with a chewy buttery crust. Because the custard is rich and thick, one custaroon is enough for a satisfying dessert – or breakfast, if you like eating sweets first thing in the morning. Custaroons come in two flavors: original and cheese.
I don’t really think Custaroons is an invention. More of an innovation of the macaroons with a softer texture and less sweet taste. I must applaud Gigi for going out of her way to make her Custaroons be known to foodies.
