PIKE CREEK COFFEE CO - Newark, DE

Basic Rating

Shell Texture - Noticeable Lumps- Meaning Almond Flour was not ground enough
Size - Uniform, Top and Bottom Shells Matched - Macarons were larger than usual, almost double the size of most macarons
Flavor Variety - Awesome Flavor Variety, along with classic macaron flavors. Passion Fruit, Rose Lychee, Cassis, Earl Grey, Lemon, Vanilla, Coconut, Chocolate Coconut, Jasmine, Black Raspberry Chocolate, Pistachio, Wedding Almond, Honey Lavender
Filling was a wonderful creamy light texture. It was light and had delicate flavor and a perfect pairing with the extreme flavors.
Availability - We went on a Sunday afternoon around 2 p.m and they still had a lot in stock, we were able to get at least 1 of each flavor. Still, I recommend calling ahead of time, especially if coming from out of town.
Flavors were very very potent!! You could definitely tell what they were suposed to taste like. Very rich, especially the floral ones like Rose Lychee and Lavender. I could only eat about 1/4 of one.
FRESHNESS - Since they are shipped in, I assume they come frozen then are stored in a refrigerator. Which I have found, freezing macarons does not compromise their taste at all. They freeze very well and thaw perfectly to room temperature.
PRICE - EXPENSIVE $2.60 each, but this is because they are made at Macaron Cafe NYC and brought down to the Pike Creek Coffee Co stand inside Zingo's Market in Newark , DE
PACKAGING - Very fancy box with cute gold ribbon

WOULD I GET THEM AGAIN? I would not go out of my way, but if I was passing, I may stop.
