These were the best macaroons I've ever had! They were so light and airy, with a perfect balance of sweetness and coconut flavor. I will definitely be making these again and again.

These macaroons were a bit too dry for my taste. I think I would add a little more egg white next time to make them more moist.

These macaroons were a bit too sweet for my taste, but my kids loved them. They were easy to make and turned out beautifully. I would probably cut back on the sugar next time I make them.

Not bad! I've had better macaroons, but these were still pretty good. The texture was a bit too dry for my taste, but the flavor was spot-on.

I'm not usually a fan of macaroons, but these were surprisingly delicious. The texture was perfect and the flavor was well-balanced. I especially liked the hint of saltiness that came through in the finish.

These gluten-free macaroons were a delightful treat! They had a perfectly crisp exterior and a chewy, coconutty interior. I loved the subtle almond flavor as well. I'll definitely be making these again!
