3. Pick your favourite flavour

Macarons are the two almond flour cookies that have a filling in between (like a sandwich). You can get it in flavours like chocolate, raspberry, nutty flavours and many more.

4. Count the number of people who will enjoy this treat

So, before you make an official order you need to know the number of people who will enjoy this treat. So, for corporate gifting, you will be ordering a large gift box that has plenty of options. Similarly, if you are ordering a box for a birthday party then you might have an intimate box of macrons.

5. Keep in mind the special occasion

The occasion will help the seller to determine what he needs to pack in this macaron box. For example, if there is a baby shower then you might need some mini macarons while for a larger wedding, you might require larger or more elaborate macarons. This will also help you to determine the shipping date and what kind of seasonal flavours you may like.

6.     Make sure that everything is fresh and tasty

If you are ordering food for someone else then it becomes your priority to keep everything fresh and delicious. In such a case, make sure that you get the delivery done on the special day itself. If you are getting it delivered one day in advance, keep it refrigerated or with an ice pack depending on the style and the flavour that you have ordered.

For any first-time macaron buyer, the most important thing to do is to find the right bakery for you. Especially if you have to worry about getting something like guilt-free, gluten-free or any other kind.
