The national macaron shippers figured out corporate gifting early. Pastreez, a California macaron bakery, has served more than a thousand corporate events for companies like Google, Netflix, and Visa — because a box of jewel-toned French macarons lands differently than another gift basket. Chicago companies are catching on, and SoulMade Desserts bakes every corporate order fresh in Plainfield, IL.
Why macarons win as corporate gifts
Macarons check every box a corporate gift should. They look premium without trying, they photograph beautifully (your clients will post them), and the individual portions make them perfect for office sharing and events. The shells are naturally gluten-free — made with almond flour — so they work across dietary needs, and with eight signature flavors there is something for every palate. A branded box of macarons says “we thought about this” in a way a generic basket never can.
Client gifts that get remembered
Closing gifts, holiday gifts, thank-yous after a big project — macarons turn all of them up a notch. We box them by the dozen in your brand colors with a note card carrying your message, so your gift arrives looking like you. Real estate closings, law firms, financial advisors: if your business runs on relationships, this is the gift clients mention months later.
Employee appreciation & team milestones
Work anniversaries, product launches, hitting the quarterly goal, surviving tax season — teams run on recognition. Bulk macaron boxes for the whole office cost less per person than a catered lunch and feel far more personal. Many Chicago companies now order holiday boxes for every employee; we can box, label, and deliver them ready to hand out.
Event dessert tables in your brand colors
Conferences, grand openings, holiday parties, open houses — a macaron dessert table in your company colors doubles as décor. Pair boxed macarons with a macaron tower as the centerpiece and your event photos basically style themselves. Tell us your brand palette and headcount and we’ll design the spread.
What Chicago companies order most
After plenty of corporate orders, clear favorites have emerged. The dozen gift box in brand colors is the go-to client gift. The two-dozen office box covers most team celebrations. For events, 100-piece dessert platters and macaron towers turn heads at conferences and holiday parties. Not sure what fits? Text us your headcount and occasion — we’ll recommend the format and quantity, and we’ll be honest if a smaller order does the job.
