And about the maroon (still not sure if that's English name) they are a kind of chestnut. They are a bit bigger and darker than chestnuts with a slightly different shape. They are used to make a kind of candy (I guess French) called Marron Glasse'.
I think you may be talking about a macaroon and not maroon. I'm not familiar with the nut, but I've heard of it. Maroon is a shade of purple. It could be a maroon, but I've just never heard of a nut named maroon.
