FAQs
Please read our FAQs page to find out more.
What is the required lead time, and how do I secure my event date?
To guarantee the bespoke quality and assembly, we require a minimum one-week (7 days) lead time. For weddings and large events, we strongly recommend booking your party favors 4–8 weeks in advance to ensure availability on your specific date, especially during peak season.
What does ‘high quality ingredients’ mean?
At Rêve, quality is the foundation of every shell and ganache we create. We believe that a gourmet macaron is only as good as its components, which is why we source only the finest:
- Local & Organic: We use super-fine, non-GMO California almond flour and organic eggs for a naturally gluten-free base with a superior texture.
- Premium Fats: Our recipes feature high-fat European-style butter, essential for that rich, melt-in-your-mouth texture.
- World-Class Chocolate: We exclusively use chocolate from premier producers Cacao Adventures and Cacao Barry to ensure a sophisticated, deep cocoa profile.
- Real Flavors: Our fillings are crafted with Tahitian vanilla beans and real fruit purées rather than artificial extracts or shelf-stable shortcuts.
When you choose Rêve, you are choosing a clean, vibrant flavor profile that only comes from the world’s best ingredients.
Are the macarons authentic?
Absolutely. We honor the heritage of French pastry by following the traditional French Méthode using a stable Italian meringue base. This process requires a precise and masterful macaronnage (folding technique) to achieve the hallmark of a true artisan macaron: a perfectly smooth, domed shell and dainty, ruffled "feet."
Our macarons offer the classic, sought-after contrast that defines the authentic French macaron experience: a delicate, slightly crisp exterior that yields to a soft, chewy, and flavor-dense center. We never take shortcuts or use pre-made mixes; we are dedicated to the slow, meticulous craft of the traditional patisserie.
Are your French Macarons gluten-free, and what allergens should I be aware of?
Macarons are naturally made with almond flour and are gluten-free. However, our kitchen processes nuts, dairy, and eggs. Fillings are typically based on rich chocolate ganache, seasonal fruit purées, or homemade fruit jams. Because every filling is customized to your menu, a complete list of ingredients and allergens can be shared with you immediately after your flavor selections are finalized.
What if I want my macarons in custom packaging that is specific colors and/or includes my branding?
We love bringing your brand’s vision to life. For a truly personalized experience, you can select our Custom Packaging option directly on the product page. This allows you to choose a signature ribbon color and provides the option to use your own branded stickers or labels.
Have a more specific vision? For custom-sourced boxes or intricate branding requests, please leave a note in the 'Special Instructions' at checkout, or contact us directly. We’re happy to consult with you to ensure your favors perfectly reflect your event’s aesthetic.
How do they ship if not local to Santa Barbara, CA?
We offer nationwide macaron shipping across the United States. To ensure your treats arrive in pristine condition, we use Express Shipping exclusively. We ship every Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday to prevent packages from sitting in transit over a weekend, ensuring your luxury gift box arrives bakery-fresh.
How can you ensure my macarons are fresh and intact when shipped?
We’ve engineered a "macaron suit of armor" to protect your order. Each box is nestled into custom-fit, recessed trays to prevent movement and breakage. For transit, we use insulated liners and frozen gel packs to maintain a temperature-controlled environment, protecting the delicate ganache and shells from the elements.
What is the shelf-life of macarons?
Our macarons are made fresh with no preservatives. For the best experience, we recommend enjoying them within 5 to 7 days of arrival.
- Storage: Keep them refrigerated in an airtight container.
Pro-Tip: For the best texture, take them out of the fridge 15–20 minutes before serving to let the flavors mature at room temperature.
Do I need to be home to receive the delivery?
Because our macarons are shipped with cooling packs, we recommend retrieving the package as soon as possible after delivery. If you are sending this as a gift, it is a great idea to let the recipient know a "perishable luxury" is on the way so they can tuck them into the fridge!

Meet the Chef
While Julie Hutton spent her weekends growing up in Bordeaux, France, baking alongside her mother, it was her enduring sweet tooth that led her to discover the uncompromising, perfection-demanding challenge of the French macaron. This luxurious, delicate French pastry requires not only precision, but also a profound respect for the craft. Julie has carried her commitment to excellence through her self-taught baking journey, fusing her worlds — the rigorous technique of French baking and the discerning taste of Southern California — into the iconic centerpiece that is a macaron tower. Rêve Patisserie’s macarons are more than a dessert — they’re edible art. More than Julie’s meticulous execution, what Rêve is really known for is her ability to create a bespoke addition to your event experience, in Santa Barbara and beyond.
