    Macarons in Japan are a popular confection known as ‘makaron’.There is also a version of the same name which substitutes peanut flour for almond and is flavored in wagashi style, widely available in Japan.

      That’s great to know, thanks for sharing! However, macarons can be made with other flours too – not just almond meal. 🙂 Thanks for visiting!
