Whether you're hosting twenty or showing up with something in hand, Thanksgiving is all about the table. This year, skip the store-bought pie and bring something your host will actually remember: a box of handmade French macarons in our cozy fall flavors.
Here are our favorite ways to add macarons to your Thanksgiving, from hostess gifts to dessert-table centerpieces, plus everything you need to know to order on time.
The hostess gift that doesn't need a pie plate back
Our limited-edition Thanksgiving Gift Box is made for this moment. It's filled with four of our favorite fall flavors: Pecan Pie, Cranberry Apple, Pumpkin Spice and Chocolate, packed in our signature black gift box with a ribbon. It looks beautiful on the counter, keeps in the fridge after the guests leave, and pairs perfectly with an after-dinner coffee.
A centerpiece for the dessert table
Hosting a big crowd? Our Thanksgiving Macaron Tower brings together Pumpkin Spice, Red Velvet, Pecan Pie, Salted Caramel and Chocolate in a stunning display that doubles as dessert. Towers ship disassembled in cases of 50 macarons, so you can set it up right before guests arrive, and we include more macarons than the tower holds, so there are extras for the cook.
Build your own fall box
Know exactly what your family loves? Create your own mix with our Build-Your-Own Gift Box. Some of our favorite fall picks:
- Pumpkin Spice: pumpkin cream with cinnamon and nutmeg
- Pecan Pie: rich, buttery and nutty
- Cranberry Apple: homemade cranberry jam with vanilla and white chocolate cream
- Chocolate: rich 58% dark chocolate ganache
Browse all of this season's flavors in our seasonal collection.
Favors for every place setting
A small box of macarons at each seat is a sweet way to say thank you for coming. Our Favor Box Kit includes 15 to 25 favor boxes, a Gift Box of 50 macarons and precut ribbon, so you can assemble your own. For a quicker option, our favor boxes of 6 ship nationwide ready to go.
A dessert most of your guests can enjoy
Holiday tables come with dietary needs. All of our macarons are gluten-free except the Dubai Chocolate box, which makes them an easy dessert for guests avoiding gluten. For dairy-free or vegan family members, our Vegan Macaron Gift Box is 100% plant-based. Please note that all of our macarons contain almonds; see our nutritional information for details.
Can't be there in person? Send it.
Missing Thanksgiving with family this year? We ship fresh macarons nationwide in insulated packaging with ice packs, so a box can arrive at their door before the big day. Thanksgiving boxes start shipping Monday, November 2, so you can send them early or time them for the holiday week.

How to store and serve your macarons
- Keep them cold. Store macarons in the refrigerator in their box for up to 5 days.
- Order ahead and freeze. Ordering early? Macarons can be frozen for up to 3 months. Thaw them in the fridge overnight.
- Serve at room temperature. Take them out about 20 minutes before dessert for the best texture and flavor.
