Just got my first shipment of Rickaroons and had to share my experience with all of my readers! First of all, Rickaroons are basically whole food macaroons with fresh, pronounceable ingredients (all of which can be seen on their website) and no dairy or gluten. Too good to be true? I didn't think so!
I ordered these snacks online at Rickaroons and took the suggestion of ordering the variety pack with 3 of each of the 4 flavors (12 cookies in all). The package arrived within 3 days of ordering and I was even given a tracking order confirmation for my shipment. This was very helpful as I prefer not having food sit out and was able to ensure I knew when my treats were in. When they arrived, each Rickaroon was individually wrapped and perfect for taking on-the-go or putting in lunches for kids or adults on trips or for work.
Onto the important part of my experience, how did they taste? They are more dense than a cookie and very much like a thicker macaroon. The consistency was perfect and very filling (I only got through half and was already full!) which makes them great for post-workout snacking or a meal replacing pick-me-up on a road trip. They are not quite as sweet as a cookie, but are an awesome healthy alternative to mindless snacks and sugary desserts. For those looking for a replacement to unclean and unhealthy desserts, these are a yummy option.
My personal favorite were the Chocolate Blondes. Perfect for a dessert cookie or snack because they are sweet, filling, and have just enough of a mix of light chocolate and coconut. The Megaroons seem to be great as a powerbar or meal replacement as they are slightly less sweet but have chia seeds full of Omega-3s. Though I am usually not crazy about dark chocolate, the dark chocolate espresso and the double dark chocolate were really flavorful and seem perfect for the health-conscious chocolate lover. The only problem that I ran into was that the packages, while transparent so that you can see the Rickaroons, were not labeled and I struggled to tell the difference. Not so much for the Chocolate Blondies or the Megaroons, but the Chocolate and Espresso needed closer inspection.
