    You really must go to Miette — their candy store is definitely one of my happy places in SF. And it’s a great place to take visitors — close to the Blue Bottle kiosk, across from the park on Octavia, and Hayes Valley itself is pretty charming. Try the macaroons! I go for the apricot or strawberry ones, my boyfriend loves the rose geranium flavor. They are really light but intensely flavored cookies.

    those cupcakes look amazingly delicious-i’m almost too afraid to see the rest of the gallery..it might make me jealous šŸ˜‰

    Hi Emily, love your blog. You have to go to Miette! I’m from Arizona, and I go there every time I visit San Francisco. The Ferry Building store is awesome, but the Hayes Valley shop will make you swoon.

    oh great. apparently they ship macarons (on ice, overnight). as if i needed to know that!

    really though, their caramels look fantastic. i may have to order a few batches before school starts. i can see myself keeping a handful in my bag just in case.

    The confiserie IS great and the penny candy is almost just that! A lot of stuff is .10/piece.
