Sucré Macarons: Giveaway and Review

  
Oh boy!! We were sent these beautiful  macarons from Sucré (French for sugared), a Sweet Boutiques and Confection Studio in New Orleans. They offer a variety of treats from chocolates, caramels, marshmallows, king cakes and more, both at their shops and online. Don't they have the most adorable packaging?

:( though they are shipped with a protective cover, these fragile macarons have breakage
-NEW PHOTOS ARE BELOW-

We received the Sucré Signature Macaron Collection, 15 Piece valued at $30. These very delicate French macaron cookies are filled with luscious mousseline. Flavors include: Pecan, Chocolate, Salted Caramel, Almond, Pistachio, Strawberry, Hazelnut, and Bananas Foster.

Even though a few of ours almost didn't make the trip, they were still delicious and loved no matter what. We all loved them. My favorite flavor was the pecan, the white dark speckled one under the yellow there. These are also gluten free, so yay!

Follow along with Sucre on Facebook and Twitter.

*Sucre was so kind enough to send a new box that happily arrived with less damage to the macarons, here are some prettier photos:

so so pretty!!

Upon arrival, I did chill them for a few to firm up a little more, they are warm and super delicate so I (and they) suggest doing so. It helped with the next photo...

we all tasted a nibble of each flavor

the delicious Pecan Macaron again. Hello!


I missed these pretty pink glittery Strawberry Macarons last time.
