Pastreez is a monthly subscription box that sends freshly baked macarons to your door! Pastreez was created by a husband-wife duo who were chefs from Le Cordon Bleu Paris. All their treats are handmade in California by French chefs.
Cost: $29.25/month or $39/one-time purchase
Shipping: $6.90 - US only
The custom box comes with 20 macarons in the flavours of your choice. There are 13 flavours to choose from.
The packaging is fantastic! The treats are packaged in a custom gift box. It keeps them safe and fresh for up to two weeks when stored in the fridge. The colours are beautiful!
We received 20 macarons in 4 different flavours - Raspberry, Passion Fruit, Chocolate Pear, and Lychee Rose.
The macarons are shipped are freshly baked and come straight from their kitchen to your door. All the ingredients are gluten-free and dairy-free. They do NOT use any fat like classic bakery macaron. No cream or butter. They're healthier than other macarons you can find out there. Each macaron is under 50 calories each.
Pastreez recommends putting your macarons in the fridge for a least an hour once you receive them. Take your macarons out of fridge 10 - 20 minutes prior to serving. The shells of macarons are delicate, eggshell-like crust with a delicious meringue inner texture. French macarons are not very crumbly so they're easy and clean to eat. At Pastreez, they use local jam to fill their macarons, not cream or ganache. They also last longer than the classic macarons. You can keep them up to ten days in or out of the fridge. As there is no dairy in it, it is not necessary to refrigerate it.
We thoroughly enjoyed trying Pastreez macarons! From the packaging to the quality of the macarons, it was a real treat for us! It was hard to pick a favourite flavour but you could really taste the fruitiness in them. I would love the sample all their flavours to see which ones we like best. Pastreez also has an online shop where you can purchase a variety of boxes which would be excellent for gift-giving!
