A city that knows its food
Matcha, Earl Grey and coffee outsell the sweeter flavors in Durham by a clear margin. If you are ordering for a Durham table and do not know the room, those three are a safer bet here than strawberry.
Weddings and events
The converted warehouse venues around downtown host a lot of receptions, and macaron favors travel well in those spaces — no refrigeration, no plates, and they photograph against brick. Venue deliveries run through a custom-order inquiry so timing can be set with your planner.
For people who say they don’t like sweet things
The three flavors Durham orders most — matcha, Earl Grey and coffee — are also the ones that most often change the mind of someone who says macarons are too sweet. The matcha is genuinely grassy and the coffee genuinely roasted. For a mixed room, add one crowd-pleaser such as strawberry or lemon alongside them: one box of each, arriving on the same delivery.
Apartments and converted buildings downtown
Around Brightleaf, American Tobacco and Ninth Street a lot of addresses are apartments and converted warehouse buildings. Put the unit number, any callbox code and a phone number for whoever is receiving the box in the order notes at checkout, so the delivery reaches the right door.
