They explained to me how it happens that certain baby names become fashionable and then disappear. In summary, the names begin to spread in the upper class and within a few years are adopted en masse by members of the lower classes, which creates a boom followed by a period of obscurity (this applies to the United States, I would say, because my friends' daughters have resolutely continued to call themselves Giulia and Emma for at least ten years).
This dynamic came back to my mind when I discovered the existence of Prepared for Macaron Cameor, just landed on the market - so "barely" that not even the official Cameo website contains any news about it.
Macarons, but you all know by now, are sweets of French origin made up of two meringomorphic wafers, held together by a ganache. Variously colored and flavored, they are very beautiful and can be very good. I am a great advocate, in particular I love those of the sublime pastry chef Pierre Hermé, to eat in Paris or to have you sent home by air if you want to invest a prohibitive amount and if you have contempt for your environmental impact.
For some time now, macarons have been experiencing a phase of overwhelming popularity. Although popular in the sense of famous, they seemed destined never to become popular in the sense of "widespread among the common people" (do you like this expression, yes? execution, which seemed to protect their aristocratic character.
I know this because I've tried too. I kept the egg whites in the fridge for two days, as usual. And I also bought the silicone mat, the only bed that macaroons like. Nonetheless, I failed dramatically and threw everything in the garbage while singing Édith Piaf with longing.
In any case: despite the initial, sensational success of the Ladurée branch opened in Milan, few pastry shops dared to offer them.
Then, something started to change.
One day I went back to my parents, in that deep Brianza that embraces gastronomic trends with years of delay and in general only the poor ones (all-you-can-eat Chinese-Japanese has filled the whole provincial road between Lentate sul Seveso and Figino Serenza) and I went to the baker next to the station. There, right next to the commuter's tongues of pizza, there were macarons.
Bizarre, I thought.
Then one day I ran into the creepy illegitimate child of the cupcake and macaron - plus Hello Kitty.
Bad sign, I told myself.
Finally, the last of the seven signs of the Apocalypse: the Cameo preparation for macaroons - as described in the report made by the blog A taste of my world:
"The bag contained the preparation for the filling chocolate cream, to which I only added 100 ml of milk and in the other bag there was the preparation for the waffles to which I added two egg whites whipped with a spoon of sugar. In the box there was even baking paper with circles that indicated where to put the mixture ".
The circles on the baking paper (THE CIRCLES ON THE BAKING PAPER!), New crop circles, are the last omen I needed to mark that the prophecy has been fulfilled: the macarons have become so mass that they have marked the their end.

A sage once said that to be successful at work, you have to do something that is beautiful, valuable and rewarding at the same time.

Tomorrow I cannot die because: last supper before the Mayan prophecy is fulfilled
The only ones who give a damn about the Mayan prophecy about the end of the world scheduled for December 21 are journalists. They have been talking about it for some time with insistence worthy of a better cause despite us, insensitive intrigued by the idea of an imminent apocalypse just to smash the VAT advance on the 27th. Nonetheless, however, the possibility that in a few hours the world will end […]

God is dead, Marx is dead and Chef Rubio writes a book on diet. Obviously, like Woody Allen, I don't feel very good either. From the series, read and reread the news. And don't get over it. It matters little that the diet in question is not the Dukan or the tisanoreica, but the Mediterranean diet, […]
