THE REVIEW MOM BLOGS ABOUT KAROLINA MACARONS


I was surprised at the wonderful box these treats came in. They were delivered cold, so I set them on my kitchen table to allow them to come to room temperature. I was told this would be the best way to try them. Before I get to the macarons, let me tell you about the box they came in. It was sturdy, with a reddish-brown color on the outside. My husband now uses it to store his drawing supplies in. I love that it is reusable!




Now, on to the macarons. My first try was with the chocolate. I took a bite and was happily surprised with the way the outside was flaky, the cookie part was soft, and the middle was smooth. Everything worked together perfectly. These macarons are exquisitely delicious. Each flavor was better than the last. Flavors of the Karolina Cacao Macarons are chocolate, pistachio, coffee, raspberry, pecan caramel, and cinnamon.



Highly recommended!
