Janette & Co. Macaron and French Pastries

They have the most delicious macaroons I’ve ever tasted! The staff is so friendly and make you feel welcome from the moment you step through their door. This place is so cute and funky. I definitely recommend the pistachio, rose, & ORANGE BLOSSOM!

We were visiting Miami when we happened to stop into this little gem. Slightly hidden on Sunset, this place truly is a delight from the moment you walk in the store. The French owner greets you and is extremely friendly, which is a breath of fresh air in Miami. Each of his macarons are made from scratch with the perfect amount of puff and crispness in each bite. Nothing is too sweet and overbearing and honestly all the flavors were delicious. The owner has so much passion in each of his creations, and this confidence was totally evident in each of his pastries. Please stop here, you will NOT be disappointed. This place made our night!

Honestly, I never understood all the hype about macarons in general. but now I understand why people are obsessed. The macarons at Janette’s are so delicious and perfect, I can’t stop thinking about them :) awesome heavenly flavors. The store is super clean and cute, very glad I found it!

Simply delicious. These macaroons melt in your mouth. The flower flavors are really special, especially the rose and lavender. I have never tried anything like them.

One of the cutest and cleanest macaron places I’ve been to. They have a variety of macaron flavors from cookies and cream to Nutella. The Nutella one has to be the best one out of all the flavors I picked (red velvet, cookies and cream, Venezuelan chocolate, crunchy hazelnut). The inside of the macaron is a bit spongy and they are generous with their Nutella spread, it gives you a nice combination of both the macaron’s external flavor and Nutella combined. The cookies and cream macaron tasted more like cream than cookie but was still good.
They sell boxes with different amounts of macarons or you can choose to have it in a cellophane bag. Both options are elegantly wrapped by the wonderful young lady who was working there. She recommends flavors and patiently attends to each customer. This made the line go a bit slow but the extra detail to customer care is what makes this place so great. It is definitely not one of those mass produced macaron places and it surely shows in each bite of flavor.

So this is one of those rare times that Unilocal has led me wrong.
The shop, is cute but it was pretty dark inside. The girl behind the counter appeared bored and bothered that someone had crossed their threshold. But I wanted to try these highly rated macarons, so I soldiered on.
At first glance, I was not thrilled with the look of the macarons. They are larger than normal, which is not a bad thing. However, the colors are really bright. Almost neon-​y. I chose one pistachio and one orange blossom. My daughter got one salted caramel and one hazelnut. Pistachio did not taste like anything. At all. Zero taste, lots of green color. Orange Blossom tasted like perfume. Not even a hint of orange. The Salted Caramel was bland as well. The only one that was ok was the Hazelnut. Simply because the filling tasted like pure Nutella. I don’t mind paying $ 2+ for a delicious macaron. I do have an issue with paying that price for a tasteless neon cookie.
I have my favorite places for macarons (Atelier Monnier, Mr Ganache, Le Macaron, Ladurée). Sadly, this Janette & Co did not measure up to my expectations.

What a cute little place! We decided to walk around after a meal at my ceviche & found macarons! I only tried the red velvet, but it is soooo rich and delicious! $ 2.25 is a little steep for one tiny macaron, but it’s worth a try.

BEST MACARONS IN MIAMI, and I have tried a LOT of macarons in Miami. They have really interesting and innovative flavours as well as the good old classics. The macarons are a nice size too, not teeny tiny. I just wish they weren’t so expensive :(
My favourite flavors are: orange blossom (tastes sort of like the scent of neroli in the best way possible), Nutella, cookies n cream, passion fruit and chocolate, rose, and raspberry.
Least favourite flavors: mojito, lavender honey (very subtle), basil white chocolate

Recently we went through a macaroon stage and we tried so many places. Janette & Co provides the freshest & tastiest macaroons in south Florida! We go to the one by sunset place. They rotate the flavors so you won’t come across some flavors twice and they run out of some early, but honesty it’s never bothered me because all their options are so delicious. The hours are more than convenient and the staff has always been very welcoming and nice! Looking forward to visiting the coral gables location soon!

I went there on a Wednesday morning around 10:45am. I want to try their macarons and coffee, since I’ve heard there so great. I tried the raspberry, lemon crème & white chocolate coconut. My daughter tried the pear chocolate. They didn’t have any coffee ready. I thought that since its only 10:45, it’s pretty pathetic that there’s no coffee at 10:45AM.
On to the macarons, the raspberry one was AWESOME! It was soft, moist and the raspberry wasn’t too sweet, it was just the right amount! The lemon crème was great as well. The lemon crème’s balance of sweet & tart was perfect! Now the coconut chocolate is where I started to turn my head sideways at the French pastry! When I heard the name WHITE CHOCOLATE coconut, I truly expected to taste some WHITE CHOCOLATE!!! But the only taste I had was coconut, very creamy and sweet BUT NO WHITE CHOCOLATE… just name the thing COCONUT. Overall, would I go there again… ABSOLUTELY! Just hope there’s some coffee and more chocolate in their selection. As far as my daughter trying the pear chocolate, she took one bit and threw the rest away. Not saying it wasn’t good but I don’t think she enjoyed that combination…

I’ve been to both Janette locations, and both produce the product of perfection!
Macarons are not cheap, so yes you should expect to pay, but that’s anywhere you would buy. (Have you ever tried to make these beauties? It’s no wonder they’re so expensive!) Janette’s macarons are bigger than several I’ve had in the past, AND more flavorful. They do not skimp out on the filling either. So I’d say it’s well worth the bucks. These are my favorite!

I received these macarons as a gift and needless to say, I devoured all 10 of them in less than a day. I couldn’t decide on one favorite flavor but have to say the coffee, salted caramel, and coconut ones were tops. All of them were divine! The outside was crisp and inside was moist. The cream filling was not too sweet and the flavoring was true, not overly sweet and lacking natural flavor. I am looking forward to more of these delectable treats!

Just came here a little while ago to try out their macarons. I was definitely looking forward to trying them out because it seems like they are really popular around the Miami area.
There was good flavor selection, but I got black currant & Nutella. The Nutella one was on point! But the black currant flavor was kind of subtle, I was expecting a kick of the black currant flavor. But the texture was still great.
I definitely would recommend the baker to grind their almonds more so that the top of their shells are smooth. The shell tops were kind of «patchy» and it didn’t look that appetizing.
But like they say, don’t judge a book by its cover. These macarons were damn good.

I LOVE Janette’s macarons. I think they are the best I have ever had in the U.S. Even my own come in second to Janette’s and I think I make a pretty kick ass macaron if I do say so myself! :D Ok enough of the snobbery. Janette’s macarons are always fresh tasting, soft with a bit of a crunch and flavorful.
For those who don’t know, macarons are made with fine almond flour, whipped egg whites and sugar, making them naturally gluten-​free. Flavored extracts and colors are optional. Two cookies are sandwiched with chocolate ganache, jelly or buttercream.
Macarons are expensive because of the almond flour and how temperamental they can be when baking. Truthfully, Janette makes hers the perfect size and the price is understandable. ($ 2.25/ea) I hope neither of those change.
If you can’t make it to this location, she has another spot on Miracle Mile in Coral Gables.
I really like the Vanilla, Hazelnut, Red Velvet but my favorites here are the Black Currant, Chocolate Pear and Coffee. You can keep them in an airtight container and they’ll stay fresh for a few days but they really taste their best just stuffed in your mouth as you walk out the store. :D

This cute little macaroon shop probably has the best macarons I’ve ever tried for the best prices !!!
So much flavor in each bite!!! The place is adorably decorated ! And their staff is beyond amazing, I can honestly say it’s one of the best costumer services I’ve witnessed.
I will definitely be back and probably VERY soon !!! I recommend you guys take care of your staff and do anything possible to keep them around because they’re as good as they get !!!

Family owned macaroons and chocolate bakery shop.
Delicious macaron with plenty of original flavors. Today, I tried the basil and gingerbread ones and I also enjoyed two more classic flavors, pistachio and coffee. Delicious as always.
Amazing service.
Lovely place. Try it

I’ve had a few test trials of macarons and never did I care for them. However, my cousin and his girlfriend absolutely love Janette & Co. so I had to give macarons another try and I’m so glad I did. These light, fluffy, crispy delicacies are delicious! My favorite was the vanilla bean. I must admit I might like these little french pastries more than I realize and it definitely helps eating them at the right bakery.

If clouds were edible they’d be these crispy on the outside, cakey on the inside, chewy sandwich cookies of French extraction. Not to be confused with Macroons, a creation of almonds, coconut shavings and condensed-​milk dipped in dark chocolate. French Macarons use only six ingredients including; almond meal, egg whites, powdered sugar, flavoring, food coloring, and fillings that can include anything from fruit preserves to buttercream frosting to ganache. It makes one wonder why everyone’s fussing about something so seemingly unassuming and the answer is – labor. An intensive labor of love, as there are more than twenty time-​measured steps that if ignored means certain doom for both chef and enthusiast alike. Janette & Co. is Miami’s finest specialty shop devoted to the petite pastry.
Inside is decorated like a house of high fashion with a pastel color scheme, and plenty of soft lighting. The gelato gallery boasts works by Stracciatella, Zabaione and Fleur de Latte, and the artisanal chocolate display is bursting with hand-​painted masterpieces. If you think you’d be the first person to devise a Cold Stone-​esque concoction of gelato, macarons and chocolate mix-ins…you’d be wrong, but by all means don’t let me dissuade you. If fortune favors the bold then Basil-​White Chocolate, Chocolate-​Pear and Salted Caramel are their treasure troves. As a gift, as an apology, or when raindrops keep falling on your head, these little luxuries are always welcome.

I know I’ve said it before, but I’m not a huge sweet person. That all changes when I walk in the door of this little gem. This place is amazing! The modern, bright and cheery atmosphere, the beautifully crafted chocolates and the irresistible macaroons make this place a shining star.
Every time I find myself in South Miami I have to make a quick stop. I mean really this is the type of place you dream about. To be honest I have never had a macaroon disappoint me from here but I have to say my favorite is the pistachio. The amazing baker/​owner is always coming up with new inventive flavors that are as a colorful and beautiful ass they are tasty.
The attention to detail also adds to the experience. Every purchase is wrapped up and made to look beautiful. Regardless of if you are picking up a few for a snack or a platter for a party, you will not be disappointed. They also have a delicious coffee menu (thanks nespresso) and now are also selling a variety of teas. I know I’m ranting and raving but this is really special, and there’s not really anything else like it in the area. Oh and did I mention the service is always spot on. Many times the owners are working the front, greeting customers and really take interest in their customers.
I almost forgot, they now have an additional location on Miracle Mile and are serving a few more things, including croissants. Enjoy!

These little piece of France come at a cost but they are so worth it! Absolutely delicious and they have a great variety and selection of flavors.
Try the red velvet and coconut!!!
