Frequently Asked Question

Macarons, often confused with macaroons, are delicate French pastries known for their delightful combination of crispy, almond meringue shells and rich, flavorful fillings. These bite-sized treats come in a rainbow of colors and a variety of flavors, making them a popular choice for sweet connoisseurs. One of the main reasons why Macarons are expensive is that the technique/method used to make macarons is very difficult. It requires precise measurements and precise techniques.

To keep your macarons fresh and delicious, store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Ensure the container is sealed well to prevent moisture and odors from affecting their flavor. Macarons can go bad if not stored properly, becoming stale and crunchy and losing their exquisite combination of flavors. You can also freeze macarons for extended storage. Just place them in an airtight container or zip-lock bag, and they'll stay fresh for up to one or two months. Allow them to come to room temperature before enjoying for the best texture and taste.

Macarons have a limited shelf life, typically lasting for about 7 to 14 days when stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator. However, their freshness depends on factors like the filling and the environment. Ganache-filled macarons may last longer due to their lower moisture content, while fruity or cream-filled ones may have a shorter shelf life.

While it's possible to leave macarons at room temperature for short periods, it's not recommended for long extended periods. Room temperature can cause macarons to become too soft or absorb moisture from the air, compromising their texture and taste. To enjoy the best macaron experience, store them in the refrigerator and let them come to room temperature for approximately 10-15 minutes, or as long as you prefer, before indulging.
