Trader Joe’s is embracing the summer spirit with a festive and flavorful release just in time for Memorial Day. The grocery chain has introduced a new limited-edition dessert: Raspberry, Vanilla & Blueberry Macarons — a red, white, and blue treat perfect for seasonal gatherings.
Spotted by popular Instagram account @traderjoeslist, the colorful confections are already drawing attention. “Red, white & berry delicious,” the post read, calling the new macarons a summer standout. Available for $5.99 per 5.53-ounce box, each pack contains 12 French-made macarons — four in each flavor: Raspberry, Vanilla, and Blueberry.
The Raspberry Macarons are made with real raspberry, Vanilla features vanilla bean specks and natural flavors, and Blueberry includes blueberry purée with a hint of lemon. Naturally colored with fruit and vegetable juices and spirulina extract, they’re as eye-catching as they are flavorful.
Ideal for backyard barbecues or casual coffee hours, these macarons bring a touch of elegance to any table. One shopper even noted they’d be perfect for hosting coffee hour after church near the Fourth of July.
Trader Joe’s advises keeping the macarons frozen and allowing them to thaw for about an hour before serving. They pair well with beverages like Citrus Berry Tea or Sparkling Strawberry Juice. Still, some fans admit to skipping the wait altogether. “I’ve eaten them straight out of the freezer and they are honestly totally fine,” one customer commented online.
As with many of Trader Joe’s seasonal favorites, these macarons won’t be around forever. Shoppers are encouraged to stock up while supplies last — because once they’re gone, there’s no telling when these sweet French treats will return.
