Costco's Newest Macarons Have All The Fall And Winter Flavors
By JUSTINA HUDDLESTON
Costco usually sells Tipiak French macaron variety packs throughout the year, with different flavors available in different seasons. According to a press release received by Mashed, the new macaron varieties are Chocolate Hazelnut, Peppermint, Salted Caramel, Pistachio, Pumpkin Spice, and Almond White Chocolate.
Macarons are expensive, mostly because the ingredients used to make them can be pricy, and because it takes a lot of skill to bake them properly. A box of macarons from some major companies can set you back almost $90, a 36-pack of Tipiak macarons, though, costs between $15.99 and $17.99 at Costco.
That's a pretty big difference in price, but the macarons still have good reviews online. They've earned a 5-star rating on Influenster, and Costco blogger Cost Contessa said of Tipiak's macarons in general that "this is a great brand, generally beloved by Costco members."
