The tunkaron – meaning ‘fat macaron’ – has really taken off in South Korea. Bigger than the typical dainty French ones, these macarons are stuffed with cream and beautifully garnished. The best place to try them in Tokyo is Macapresso.
Every season, the café offers new tunkaron flavours, such as Oreo; milk, which uses homemade milk jam; and grape cream cheese – the fresh grapes really pop in your mouth.
But the Jogeron, a shell-shaped macaron ornamented with edible pearls and other sweet decorations, is the most popular of all. It comes in two flavours: chocolate banana and strawberry. If you’re looking for a highly Instagrammable sweet treat, Macapresso won’t let you down.
