Macarons and biscuits home delivered

Product Review

 

Macarons are one of my favourite things, and no matter how much time goes by I always seem to crave them. I’m happy to go out and pick some up now and then, but it’s an extra little luxury to have them delivered. The Biscuiterie is an online shop which specialises in delivering macarons and decorated biscuits,  and both are lovely.

The naturally gluten free macarons are made using the French meringue method and are filled with either ganache, buttercream or curd. Lemon macarons are great at giving some balance to all the sugar, and the raspberry and chocolate peppermint macarons are also fab. Although some of the macarons do not quite make the journey from bakery to front door without breaking a little, they all still taste great. They have a good texture too, with well risen feet, smooth shells and just the right amount of bite.

The Biscuiterie also has a range of prettily decorated biscuits: the ‘Brush Embroidery Flower Biscuits’ are piped with English roses and carnations, and have a crumbly texture that goes exceedingly well with a chamomile tea. 

The selection of 16 macarons (with a maximum of three flavours per box) is £17.95, the floral decorated biscuits cost £15.95 for six, and the cost of delivery to London addresses starts at £4.80.

  • Those floral decorated biscuits have to be the prettiest that I have seen! Can they personalize their biscuits?

      They’re so lovely aren’t they! The Biscuiterie do custom make biscuits, all decorated by hand :)

  • Beautiful and tasty!

    This is BEYOND fabulous! I had no idea such a service existed and such a well-presented one too :) The macaroons look delicious and I adore the iced biscuits :)

    How wonderful! I love your product reviews. You never know when you’re ordering things online what the actual quality will be and you can’t return perishables so its great to find reliable brands through you xxx

      I know that feeling exactly so glad I could help! If you like biscuits then you’ll like these x

  • Mehreen, these look sooo good! The bakers are truly talented, especially the decorated biscuits! They look far too pretty to eat! Totally with you on macarons, divine! If only I lived nearer to London!

      They are really well done and the royal icing decorations are quite intricate, especially with the gradual shading on the flower petals x

    Beautiful. Thinking of using them maybe as wedding favours as I’m having a garden party… if they can do roses though..

      That would be a lovely idea! The Biscuiterie can custom decorate the cookies exactly as you’d like them, and I’m sure roses wouldn’t be a problem at all.

    They’re delivering macarons now?! Oh god, the world is conspiring to make me sit at home all day eating. And I’ll do it too, in the blink of an eye…

      Apparently they’ve been doing it for a while. Why did I ever leave the house? Netflix and salted caramel everything, pretty please.
