What is Your Favorite PD Product? Hi, I’m Emily and I’m a Panna Dolce-holic. *Hi Emily* I am officially obsessed with Almond Butter and Jelly macarons. It’s like a gourmet twist on my favorite childhood memory.
How has PD changed your life? Mostly I’ve had to buy new pants. And not because I’ve outgrown my old pants. But I needed those side pockets to carry around say a 16-pack, a la Napoleon Dynamite. Although on that note, I do still have a Caboodle…
What was the best part about your PD experience? I love the customer service. They provide so many options online, but I’ve also spoken with the owner who was able to customize a special order for me when I recently needed a last-minute gift for a client.
What do people say when you give them Panna Dolce? I have sent the phenomenal macarons, cookies and brownies to my favorite friends, family and clients. With every order, the lucky recipient is wowed by the latest trend in snacking goodness. Panna Dolce has absolutely mastered the art of creating a light, delicate, flavorful French macaron. Julia Child would be so proud of the chefs at Panna Dolce for mastering the art of French pastry making (I just watched Julie and Julie, so felt the need to include a reference!).
What is your next PD order? In lieu of sending myself a dozen roses from a pretend secret admirer, I think I’ll switch it up and opt for a 16-pack of Vanilla Rose macarons from Panna Dolce.
How does PD compare to other macarons you have tried? Since reading anywhere and everywhere that French Macarons are the new black, I’ve assigned myself the task of finding the perfect mac. I have to say that Panna Dolce is the ideal blend of perfectly delicate cookies with light, flavorful filling…the absolute best!
Do you have any crazy flavor recommendations? Tiramisu? Eggs and Bacon (for my morning macaron cravings)? Baklava?
What do you say to people who have never tried PD? Once you go Mac, you never go back.
There’s a bun in the oven! I gave Panna Dolce’s Macarons as favors for my sister’s baby shower and they were a huge hit. They put 2 macarons in cute little blue take away box (the oven) garnished with tissue and a ribbon- super cute presentation . I highly recommend the chocolate buttercream – it is AMAZING. Really cute, delicious and unique favor.
