    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.

    6 and 12 macarons

    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.
