"macaron" pronunciation

Posted by cdp1223, July 27, 2009

I'm referring here to French macaron cookies....not the chewy coconutty macaroons most often found around Passover.

How the heck is the French cookie name pronounced? Mah-ca-ROHN?
I have never had to ask for them by name before, I have only baked them at home since we don't have a bakery that makes them in Pittsburgh (to my knowledge).

Sorry for the silly question. I am travelling to Canada soon and plan to ask everyone within earshot where to find them! :)
