If you're looking for a Valentine's Day dessert that's a little more creative than a box of chocolates, you might want to consider grabbing a package of Costco's Le Chic Pâtissier Macarons.
The Le Chic Pâtissier Macarons are a creative take on a classic French cookies. Each box features 25 heart-shaped macaron cookies boasting a romantic Valentine's Day hue. There are two flavors in each box, so couples can enjoy strawberry-vanilla or raspberry-flavored macarons made "with only the finest ingredients." But perhaps the biggest selling point is the price, which is less than $13 for the whole box—a steal compared to similar heart-shaped cookies from high-end bakeries.
With consumers increasingly looking for Instagramable Valentine's Day gifts, these sweet, heart-shaped cookies are good for sharing and for the 'gram.
