If you’re in Colmar, perhaps consider other bakeries that might offer better value for the quality.

My personal opinion :

I couldn’t resist the buttery aroma that led me straight to this bakery. Once inside, I got a free pistachio macaron to try, and it was tasty, although not as magical as the scent promised. You should definitely give their diverse macaroon flavors a whirl when you visit.
