    These Macarons Will Make You Forget You're on a Diet!

    (COSMO) - If you’re like me, you have quite the sweet tooth! I especially love macarons!

    So, I’m always looking for the best macarons in my town. But seeing I live in a smaller town (Hello Morris, Illinois!) It’s hard to find yummy treats all the time.

    Thankfully, many bakeries have been offering their macarons online (wahoo!), making ordering some of the best-tasting pastries easier and having them delivered straight to your door. The only problem now is that there are so many macaron companies to order from; how do you know which ones will be worth it?

    That’s where TikTok comes in. (muahaha!)

    TikTok is the best way to find fantastic recipes, excellent shops, and -you guessed it- Macarons! Influencers and food lovers post their favorite macarons they order online, and I reap the benefits!

    But, as I’m a giving person, I had my team of food reviewers find their favorite macarons from TikTok and rank the 5 best macarons you can order online RIGHT NOW. 

    We ranked the companies by the freshness upon delivery, their unique take on flavors, and the price. Let’s get started!

    1. OVERALL BEST: ROYALS MACARONS

    Freshness: 99%

    Unique Taste: 95%

    Price: $

    Overall: A+

    Royals is our favorite choice if you’re looking for freshly baked macarons that are INSANELY delicious.

    We hadn’t heard of Royals before, but we’re glad TikTok recommended them. Baked to order within two days, these were the freshest tasting macarons we’ve ordered online. They send in 6, 12, or 18-pack bundles, adding more flavors to each box. Ordering more than six is worth it as it includes some of the best flavors, including Cookies N Cream, B-Day Cake, and Tiramisu. And best of all, because they’rerelatively new, they’re offered a 50% discount for all new orders, which makes Royals the most affordable macarons on our list. You must try them!

    By far, Royals is the best tasting macaron you can order online right now!

    2. MADEMOISELLE MACARON

    Freshness: 90%

    Unique Taste: 85%

    Price: $$$

    Overall: B

    Mademoiselle makes a fantastic variety pack of unique macarons that are super delicious. They’re on the crisp side, which some people like, but filled with flavor. Our favorite was the Salted Caramel. The only issue we had with Mademoiselle was the price. Their variety pack is undoubtedly pricier, even if you get a lot of macarons and flavors for the price. If you’re looking for your new favorite, dropping that much money for a first try may be hard.

    3. PASTREEZ MACARONS

    Freshness: 85%

    Unique Taste: 80%

    Price: $$

    Overall: B

    Pastreez does a great job of offering variety at a great price. We love their variety of flavors and were very excited to try them all. They weren’t as fresh as we would have liked them, and the unique taste wasn’t exceptional. I enjoy being able to differentiate one macaron company from the other. After tasting Royals, I’ll always be able to tell their macarons from another company. Sugarwish didn’t do that for us. That said, it’s still a top contender for the price and variety

    4. WOOPS MACARONS

    Freshness: 80%

    Unique Taste: 75%

    Price: $

    Overall: B- 

    WOOPS Macarons were some of the first macarons I ordered online. I can’t lie, I love their cheeky little packaging. They also have a lot of options for gift-giving, which I like. In terms of variety, they’re in the center. We didn’t find any of the macaron flavors to blow us away. For the most part, they’re a solid macaron that won’t disappoint but also won’t send you to the moon. 

    5. MACARON QUEEN

    Freshness: 85%

    Unique Taste: 90%

    Price: $$

    Overall: B+

    TikTok gave us a great find for vegan and gluten-free macarons. Macaron Queen has a lot of great varieties and gives you great options when choosing your favorite flavors..The vegan options include almond flour and low-sugar to help keep the calories low. This is definitely the healthy option if the ranking. 

    WHY WE CHOSE ROYALS AS THE BEST OVERALL MACARONS

    With so many amazing pastry and macaron companies out there, we wanted to tell you more about why we chose Royals as our number one. We asked our top pastry critic Stephanie Marriane to explain why she put Royals at the top of the list. Here’s what she had to say. 

    I’ve been a pastry chef for almost 15 years, so I’ve had just about every dessert, macaron, cake, and pie imaginable from some of the top-rated restaurants and bakeries in the world. That is to say, I have quite a discerning taste. So when I was asked to taste dozens of macarons that had been ordered online and delivered to my home, I’ll admit I wasn’t entirely excited. 

    But I took on the challenge and started receiving box after box of macarons. After a quick anxiety attack about the amount of sugar I was about to intake, I started tasting. 

    But I took on the challenge and started receiving box after box of macarons. After a quick anxiety attack about the amount of sugar I was about to intake, I started tasting. 

    Then, I talked to another pastry chef, a friend of mine who I trust to give me the best recommendations and she said she SWORE by Royals. I hadn’t heard of Royals yet and was intrigued.

    She told me Royals bakes your order fresh and sends that day, so you’re getting the highest quality macaron to your door. When I went over to house the next day she popped the tiramisu macaron in my mouth and I literally melted. It was so soft and fresh, I was almost impossible to describe. Like a cloud of flavor that makes your whole body shiver. And then she told me she ordered that macaron a WEEK AGO. I couldn’t believe it. I had to order my own. 

    AN AMAZING BUNDLE OF FLAVORS!

    I was happy to see Royals offering 50% off their macarons right now, so I ordered their full the 12-pack! A day later I received a beautifully wrapped box, and once I opened it, I was OBSESSED. The smell alone was mouth-watering. 

    After a week of tastiong every flavor. Sorry, I had to go slow, I couldni’t let my love handles win, I picked my top 4 flavors:

    TIRAMISU

    Absolutely amazing flavor. When you bite, a small pop and then a soft center. I’ve never tasted something so close to tiramisu without it being tiramisu! A must-try!

    BIRTHDAY CAKE

    I couldn’t understand what would be different from a Birthday Cake macaron and a Vanilla or Chocolate. But this macaron is UNBELIEVABLE. You’ll feel transported back to your childfood with the perfect mix of sugar, soft cake center, and vanilla cream.

    MANGO

    If you’re a fruit lover, the Mango macaron is a real treat. It has the sweetness and subtle juice sparkle of a mango while still keeping it’s soft cake-like interior. 

    PB & J

    This was the most surprising of flavors. The subtle peanut butter and jam flavor is perfect. It’s sweet yet salty without overpowering your taste buds. What a wonderful daytime treat. 

    TRUE ROYALTY

    After trying a 12 pack of macarons, I can honestly say Royals is one of the best macaron companies on the market today. I’ve been converted to True Royalty, and your should, too!
