This was the first time I've tried them, but it won't be the last! My husband enjoyed them, too--we loved them with tea when he first comes home from work, or fishing (his passion) & these cookies can be packed for a picnic!

Came packed very well. Used for ladies luncheon. Not yet a well known product in some circles. Ladies were unsure of taste combinations. I personally loved the presentation, soft pretty colors, I loved the taste and texture. I believe if I keep buying, they will come around. Lovely for a baby shower.

Did not ship on requested date but arrived before Christmas.

I prefer more subtle flavoring.

RESENT HAVING TO COMMENT ON MORE THAN I WANTED TO!

I ordered these for the holidays and will now use the Macarons as a gift for occasions that require a little something special (which can be anything). The macarons are pretty, well packaged, delicious, and are not the normal go to gift like a bottle of wine. I was very pleased with this product.

I gave this as a gift to a client. It came boxed with dry ice to keep it fresh. The macarons were beautifully made and had a nice assortment of flavors. I have bought Macarons in Paris at a famous pastry shop known for their macarons and these were almost as good. Of course I think Paris had something to do with it too.

Love these cookies! We were only surprised that they were frozen when they arrived.

I was so excited about these macarons; I'd hemmed and hawed over them for weeks. Finally, when I was ordering some items for a holiday party that required next day shipping, I decided to give in and treat my family to something I hoped was extraordinary -- as the reviews seemed to indicate. There's a French bakery near our home, and I've been known to spend entire afternoons scouring the metro area for the best macarons -- a personal passion of mine that I've never been able to perfect at home. Unfortunately, these were underwhelming and not up to par. While the flavors were vivid and engaging and the finishing was excellent these cookies were sorely undercooked, which became even more pronounced after thawing. I'm not sure if this happened because they were essentially frozen while shipped and then thawed out, but my sense (after making many dozens of these myself) is that they were simply not baked long enough. The outsides were perfectly smooth and crispy, and the fillings were delectable! However, the inside of the cookies themselves were mushy and wet (see pic; I know it's not super clear, but you can see how wet and compacted the interior is). This could have also happened because the cookie was in contact with the filling for too long and absorbed too much moisture. I was really disappointed in these and would not recommend them to knowing recipients.

My daughter wanted only 1 thing for her 18th birthday. She is a freshman in college 5 hours away so I wanted the best for her first birthday away from home. She received the package and said Mom, I freaked out--because they were perfect
Never got such a high compliment from this girl since she left elementary school...
