Of course, until last night, I'd also never heard anyone declare the following about Martell Cordon Bleu: "Even if you're dead, you won't have a hangover."
More accurately, until last night, the three words "Martell Cordon Bleu" had never entered my hearing in that sequence before.
I didn't have any, anyway. The word "Martell" gives me the heebie-jeebies.

BUT WHAT ABOUT THE CAKE ?????
I don't know, actually. I don't speak enough fancy food language to know.
Okay, I can try to describe it: Those pink things are soft light pastry things with fillings, some chocolate, some strawberry, some other things. And they were all stuck to the outside of a pyramid, which we couldn't eat except for the chocolate exterior layer.
Does any of that make sense?
i think they're called macaroons. reminds me of something bakerzin came up with for christmas - stacked the macaroons in similar fashion resembling a christmas tree.

I know macaroons exist, I'm not sure what they are --- I assume they're what's pictured on the Canele website? :)
Anyway, the pink things were more mini-eclair-shaped rather than the more rounded shapes on the Canele website --- so I guess the question is whether macaroons are by definition always that shape?
