    February '23 macarons.
    Paulina F.

    We ordered in January, for my belated birthday celebration, and again this month, leading up to Valentine's Day. We'll definitely order again. I love Anita's customer service, including free delivery within the city @ $50+, and the care she puts into her craft. As the business grows, I hope for more assorted flavors b/c the alternative now is to place a custom order of 18+, which is a lot of the same flavor.

    After trying some macarons from Colette Macaron last year at a Yelp Event, I knew I would want them again for special events in my life. What's more special than a wedding reception?! In lieu of just serving cake, my husband and I set up a dessert table at our reception with macarons from Colette Macaron and mini cupcakes and slices of cake from Nothing Bundt Cake. We also had a boba bar from Gong Cha. We really wanted the food at our reception to shine! It was really easy to email the owner, Anita, to get a quote for macarons. After I told her what we planned to serve for dessert and our color scheme (light purple/pink), she gave me some suggestions for flavors. We ended up going with ube, balsamic strawberry, and Nutella flavors in a light pink/purple/cream design with gold paint decorations. All our guests loved the flavors and we had no macarons left over (we also put out some to-go boxes at the end of the night for people to take things home). Anita was helpful in suggesting times of delivery based on our reception timeline. The macarons were delivered on time to Los Altos from San Francisco and things still tasted great a few hours after delivery. Anita also clarified the ingredients in the macarons so I could put up some allergy notices on my menu signs. Overall I recommend Colette Macaron if you want a unique, delicious, and beautiful dessert for your event.

    These were the perfect snack at our pride picnic! They tasted so great and stayed fresh in the fridge overnight. The delivery was smooth. 10/10 would get again.

    Sorry Anita, this review is long overdue! Her macarons are like no other - full of flavor, creative, beautiful, adorable, colorful, etc. Anita is talented, so very sweet and personable. We love to order from her to enjoy and share her specialties! When you see and eat her creations you will know how amazing she is!

    Custom birthday macarons for a spa-themed party

    Colette made gorgeous custom macarons for my daughter's 7th birthday. The kids were all so excited and couldn't get enough!! The team at Colette was very easy to work with, reliable, flexible, and delivered on time.

    Here's a much-delayed shout-out to Colette Macaron, our family favorite indulgence! Imagine macarons so vibrant and delicious that they delight children and adults alike; that is the magic Anita creates. It's not just about their visual appeal (which is stunning, by the way) but also their delectable taste - that's why my children have become huge fans! I've reached out to Anita for custom-made macarons for various themed birthday parties; her creations were nothing short of impressive each time. The way she brings the party theme to life with these flavorful bites amazes guests, who can't help but praise the taste and design.

    Matcha boba macarons
    Monica C.

    I ordered some matcha boba macarons to use as favors for my storybook themed baby shower in November (paired with the bilingual book "I Love Boba" by Katrina Liu). I reached out online 2-3 weeks before my event. Anita responded quickly and gave clear information about flavors, pricing, etc. Ordering, delivery, and the macarons themselves were great. The matcha flavor was not too sweet and the boba design was so cute. I'm glad I went with Colette Macaron and would order from them in the future.

    You will NOT find a better macaron! I tasted macarons from different specialty bakeries, personal bakers and mass produced establishments...Colette Macarons are THE BEST. The flavors are vibrant, true to taste, have good 'feet', perfect interior chewy-ness. The flavors are also very unique. You also cannot beat the price per unit...and if you are lucky to live in SF, there's curbside delivery at no charge. Packaging is done very well and comes with a personalized card if it's a gift. I've had deliveries to my home and friends houses - delivered on time and as promised.

    My friend had a macarons tower (Nutella, ube, and balsamic strawberry) for dessert at her wedding. I loved the idea compared to traditional cake. So pretty with sprinkle of edible gold, and and melt in your mouth good!

    Anita was AMAZiNG! We were planning our wedding in the Bay Area while living in LA and she made it such an easy and seamless process! She gave quick responses to my emails and gave her professional recommendations based on our vision. All I had to do was tell her what I needed, how I wanted it to look, and send her reference pics and she made it happen! The flavors were SOOO good. We wanted a lot of asian-based flavors and she gave us just that. Not to mention how beautiful our tower and macaron favor boxes were! She even let us send her our own label to print and put on the boxes. She really allowed us to make it our own and she brought our vision to life! She delivered and set up everything and our guests could not stop raving about it! Looking forward to the next time we are in the Bay Area, she'll be the first one we order from. Thank you, Anita!!

    I contacted Anita of Colette Macaron with a pretty specific vision of custom macarons I wanted made for a wedding anniversary gift. Anita got back to me within a day and we were able to go back and forth with more ideas pretty quickly. Anita was very easy to work with and kindly delivered the macarons within the agreed upon timeframe. When I got the macarons today, I was absolutely floored by how they looked. They look even better than I had imagined! Of course, great looking macarons are nice but they should taste good too. The 2 flavors (peppermint brownie and earl grey) tasted so good. I've had other macarons before where I have to really think about what the flavors are, not so with Colette Macaron. I can't wait to try more from Anita in the future!

    We got a box of 4 custom macarons for party favors.

    I strongly recommend Colette Macarons. We worked with Anita for about a dozen boxes of 4 macarons for party favor packs. They were quick to respond and very communicative. Everything went smoothly from the order discussion to the delivery. The macarons were perfect *chefs kiss* with the right amount of bite to them and scrumptious flavors.

    Found Colette Macaron last minute and was able to place an order with Anita last minute for next day delivery through email. Anita was super fast at responding and made the transaction super easy. I just told her what I wanted, the flavors and how many of each and she sent me an invoice to pay through square and that's it! She delivered within the time frame she promised the next day. Loved the packaging and she included a little birthday note for my friend. My friend loved her macarons and said they were really good. I also ordered a few for my daughter and she loved them! Will definitely order from Anita again in the near future!

    The small personal touches (Friends font and dots) made the macarons so much more special.

We came for a factory tour, about an hour long. It was fascinating and educational to learn about the craft of chocolates from fruit to beans to the chocolate bar, and to get to chocolate taste along the way. Their work is inspiring-adding minimal ingredients to their chocolate bars so that the flavors of the cacao beans shine naturally from where they originate. After the tour, we tried the hojicha hot chocolate, the celebration cake, and the matcha cookie. For the hojicha hot chocolate, the tea flavor was subtle, but good chocolate. The celebration cake was what we expected-glad it wasn't overly sweet so that cocoa is more pronounced, but it also wasn't too rich; I felt the chocolate here in some sense lacked depth. The matcha cookie was my favorite-a cake texture matcha exterior encasing a denser brownie-like chocolate core - a delicious combo! Last thoughts to prep for the experience if you tour- 1.) Eat before you go on the tour-sampling chocolate means you do get caffeinated, and you'll likely purchase more chocolate (more caffeine!) after :) 2.) Included with the tour is a complimentary chocolate drink of choice at the end, in case you were pondering whether to buy the hot chocolate or not ;) 3.) Dandelion Chocolate products are pricey but quality. Paying the price feels like it's appreciation of their art. If you love chocolate, it's a wonderful place to visit at least once!

It was topped w/an edible chocolate disc with a kawaii glass of Thai tea. +Thai tea cream was full of flavor & not too sweet. -Thai tea cream was gritty & not smooth. -Unfortunately, the choux shell was soggy and not crispy. Side notes: 1.) Discounts available for bulk purchases 2.) No seating available. Walk up to the register, order, and take your order to go. 3.) Walking distance from MUNI 22 bus stop Verdict: Cute bites with unique flavors, but I was disappointed w/the choux. If I was in the area, I'd try a canelé since they had some interesting flavors.

It was later of the day cause when I arrived only 2 cupcakes were left, BooHoo. SO I got the remaining chocolate cupcakes with strawberry butter cream. I was w/my daughter and we were getting candy bags as well. Got home tried the cupcakes. It was really good! The chocolate cake is soo moist. I love butter cream frosting but never had strawberry buttercream so I was skeptical! But yes it was really good as well!! The combination of both really satisfied my sweet tooth. I totally recommend and I also would love to visit the other location, ferry building. More cupcakes to feast! (I love the pink bag)

    Wow I am impressed with their macaroons and the old fashion cupcake…read more The macaroons are different from others that I tried. They are made with coarsely ground almonds with the skins intact. They do not add any food coloring or processed flavorings, so they are distinctly rustic and natural. It is not sticky, gooey or has too much sugar stuck on them. I like the hazelnut flavor. The cupcakes are decorated nicely. Their Italian Meringue Cupcake is a rich Double-Chocolate cake with a light and fluffy marshmallow-like texture makes me think of a hostess cupcake. I had two yellow cream cheese frosting gingerbread cupcakes, raspberry chocolate and strawberry vanilla cupcake. I am happy with the selection I received which is a great way to try and determine if this bakery knows how to make a good cupcake. I enjoyed their carrot cake cupcake. All cupcakes were nice and moist, the frosting is always the key to a good cupcake. Thank you and I hope to stop by again and try a cake.

Even so, they were refreshing that pastry case so that I was not without options. So many amazing-looking things, so I got 3 things just for myself: Chocolate Banana Almond Croissant $5.25: The classic, I had to try. And it was so good!! I thought it might be too rich, but I actually found it to be quite balanced. I loved the fresh mashed banana/banana purée inside, and it went really well with the chocolate. I didn't get a ton of almond flavor comparatively, but I appreciated the coating on the top for a heartier crunch in addition to the croissant flakiness. Like everyone else, I would definitely recommend this one! Passionfruit Bostock $4.25: The staff person helping me told me this was a good option, so I was happy about that. I would agree! It has a beautiful crisp on the outside and a moist crumb inside. The passionfruit flavor was really nice and not too strong. I believe they rotate different flavors of this one, so I'd definitely want to try more. Bostocks on the whole are underrated, and I think they have just the loveliest texture. All-in-One Cake: This is so creative. I was going to stop at the above two pastries, but when the staff person said that this cake was quite literally made up of all the other cakes seen in the case, I was already sold. How cool and creative and reduce-reuse-recycle is that!!!?? I love! And it was such a fun eat! I love how they added crust at the bottom and a gorgeous chocolate layer on top to tie everything together. And every bite was a little different: some fruity, some nutty, some crunchier. Super cool. I was able to nab a table and work a little bit, which was nice. It's a good vibe inside with a little hustle and bustle, but still cozy overall. I'll be back!

    Liked this place a lot, also appreciated the extreme variety of things available (especially…read morecompared to some of my other favorite bakeries like Arsicault). Definitely go early to get everything fresh, but you probably won't run into a line if you don't. Highlight of the menu was absolutely the kouign amann - it was so buttery and flaky with this caramelized sticky sweet inside, rivaled in my eyes only by the Arsicault one. We also got the seasonal one (raspberry and guava) which was also really good. The passion fruit bostock was also interesting with this spongy cakey texture with an almond topping. The banana chocolate almond croissant was another favorite of mine, it's also such a unique item and definitely a must order. We sat inside at a table so we could eat some of the pastries right away which I highly recommend - everything lost freshness after a few hours and I probably wouldn't get anything from here again with the intention of eating it later. They have a ton of cakes too, tried the chocolate mousse cake, the berry cake, and the passionfruit orange and guava cake. The chocolate mousse was my favorite and runs on the sweeter side compared to other chocolate mousse's I've had. The other two are also amazing and have a bunch of different layers. I also tried the prosciutto burrata and cherry tomato tartine - an open faced sandwich basically - which tasted good but was kind of difficult to eat, either with hands or fork and knife. Would definitely come here again both because what I tried was so good and there are so many other things there I'd want to try.
