Indulge in the delicate crunch and chewy interior of a raspberry macaron, a delightful French confection featuring a vibrant raspberry filling. These exquisite almond meringue cookies are best enjoyed fresh, but proper storage ensures their delightful texture and flavor are preserved.

Storage Time

Best enjoyed within 2-3 days at room temperature, up to 5-7 days when refrigerated.

Temperature

Store at cool room temperature (18-22°C) or refrigerated at 0-4°C.

Freezing

Raspberry macarons freeze exceptionally well, preserving their delicate texture. To freeze, place unfrosted shells or fully assembled macarons in an airtight container or freezer bag, separating layers with parchment paper. Freeze for up to 2-3 months. Thaw slowly at room temperature for several hours or overnight in the refrigerator to prevent condensation and maintain crispness.

Signs of Spoilage

• A sticky or overly soft texture, indicating moisture absorption.
• A sour or off smell emanating from the filling.
• Visible mold growth on the shells or filling.
