Sweet and savory gourmet macarons inspired by traditional French recipes to be featured in swag bags of 50 nominees and talent staying at the Four Seasons hotel for Oscar Weekend in Beverly Hills this February.
15th February 2019: RepChampion Canada’s gourmet macarons are recognized for their unique flavors, high quality and exquisite taste and texture. Handmade in France, they adhere strictly to the basics and the traditions, something that has led them to win the Trophée de la Gastronomie et des Vins award and take centre stage at prestigious sports events such as Formula 1.
RepChampion Canada was founded by Milton, Ontario resident Kaoutsar Entifi and has been in business for 5 years now. The reason behind its creation was a career in the hospitality industry, a love for fine foods and a passion for French pastries in general and Parisan macarons in particular.
Kaoutsar, who spent around a decade living in Paris has always been enamored with the culture and the cuisine of France. Her favorite Parisian eatery was a restaurant called Ladurée, located on the Champs Elysées. The Ladurée family were the creators of the macaron we love and eat today, and it’s Ladurée standards that Kaoutsar follows and aims to reach. So when she was approached by a French macaron supplier looking to expand into North America, she immediately requested samples because she had to find out whether they were the real deal. Kaoutsar was blown away by the unique sweet and savory flavors, as well as the perfect texture, slightly crunchy outside and softer inside. Those gourmet macarons were perfection. There was no turning back.
The flavors are truly mind-blowing. On top of traditional ones such as vanilla, raspberry, salted butter caramel, pistachio and the like, imagine a burst of unexpected flavors that range from Roquefort, goat cheese, carrot and cumin to porcini, figs and onions and bell pepper and more. These can go on a cheese or charcuterie board, be presented as appetizers or on a grazing table. A creative chef would use them to accompany a salad or even a main dish and tea rooms love to feature them as part of the afternoon tea menus they offer. There is no limit as to how they can be served.
This February, RepChampion’s gourmet macarons will be a part of the swag bags given to 50 Academy Award nominees staying at the Four Seasons hotel in Beverly Hills, California. Not only is it a great moment for RepChampion Canada as it recognizes the hard work that Kaoutsar has put in, but it also has a lot of emotional weight. Being recognized for the food item that inspired the creation of the company is the greatest honor RepChampion Canada could ask for.
