We first discovered BonBonBon at a hip Valentine's craft fair at the Majestic Theater in 2019 and…read morewe've been hooked ever since. Their chocolate creations are not only delicious, but creative and unlike any other treats out there. Back in the day, it was not unusual for us to make a 40 minute drive into Hamtramck or Detroit to get a Bon fix, so you can imagine how excited we were as they opened more storefronts across Metro Detroit. The Ann Arbor store is my favorite because it's just a short lunchtime walk from work! This is a business that you can feel really good about supporting. Not only is their product top notch, but their practices prioritize quality, sustainability ,community and inclusion. It has been fun watching their tremendous growth over the last seven years and cheering them on from the sidelines!

We were visiting friends in AnnArbor and were downtown and wanted a treat after some shopping…read more They took us here which is a fave of theirs it's a really cute little shop with nice seating, French themed decor and a welcoming staff. The case of macarons was beautiful , multicolored rows of well labelled flavors. We each made some selections and ordered some drinks. Our hosts ordered a large French press pot to share. I had time to speak with staff about the last k of space for baking and how they arrived at so many flavors. They do not bake onsite but receive frozen shipments from the main bakery in Grand Rapids as handiest the Holland, Michigan store. They defrost enough each for each day so they never run out of flavors. They were some of best I have ever had. Nothing like what you might find in the bakery section of a grocer. This is an historic residential building retrofit with a nice conversion to retail without losing its charming brickwork. I will definitely return when next in Ann Arbor.

I've wanted to stop by but always had planned activities elsewhere. Until today…read more The shop is beautiful: exposed brick walls, small marble-topped tables, petite vases filled with flowers, sparkly chandeliers, and a garland of pink and white flowers. It's so appealing. The macarons displayed in the case were equally appealing. I don't recall all the flavors, but I had a tough time picking out flavors for my friend and, of course, something for me. I chose three macarons to enjoy at the shop: blueberry, coconut, and strawberry cheesecake. I liked the delicate crack of the macaron shells and the creamy, flavorful centers. Each sported a design to distinguish itself from the others further. I also had a piping hot Earl Gray tea along with these treats. Espresso, French and Italian sodas, and lattes are also available. Customers stopped in throughout my visit for a quick purchase or to savor their macarons at nearby tables. Service was disappointing.

I consider myself to be pretty picky when it comes to French macaron. Yeah, I've been to Paris a…read morecouple of times. I've been to the big world famous places and had them from the source, not just in their U.S. expansion locations. Let me tell you this. The macaron at The Blu Kitchen, this tiny little place with barely any operating hours at all, from a quality of product perspective is making delicious little morsels that compare favorably with the world's best. Some of the flavors, I'm looking at you salted caramel, are even better than what I had abroad. Of course, there are others that fall short. Notably the ones with sprinkles. However, I am told by Adina they are big sellers with the local crowd. Mon dieu. Arrive early on Saturday for the best selection. Things will sell out. But this is the cost of great food. Comparing the macaron here to others available locally, these are better than that preciously cute store in downtown Ann Arbor. The flavors are true. The textures are perfect. And they far surpass that Detroit pastry chef guy who makes other great things but whose macaron leave me disheartened. Macaron are pretty pricey for a little cookie. But when they are good, they are worth every penny. Why? Because they encapsulate a pursuit of perfection. As a small bite, they need to pack a flavorful punch. That flavor comes from the center. But here's the trick, that center cannot overshadow the rest of the confection. It has to blend seamlessly into the textures of the crisp outer shell, which coalesces into a tender almond flour interior, and that dense creamy middle. At one of the famous places in Paris, the filling was just far too stiff and produced a jarring effect. This can happen on occasion to the best macaron bakers and Adina is no exception. But her pursuit of perfection and attention to detail in every element of production are extraordinary. This review has been a long time coming and serves as a reminder to me that I need to get back to Plymouth for another fix. It's been far too long, and I saw on the gram I just missed coconut caramel. Dang it. If you are a macaron fan, you owe it to yourself to get some of these in your mouth. You can thank me later. Just skip the ones with the sprinkles, and maybe if enough of us buy the better unadorned versions, Adina will stop pandering to the crowd and make the world class treats I know she can.

Cutest little store ever! This is only a to-go shop, so…read moreworth it! I follow them on FB so i knew the flavors of the day! also, if you call that same day, they will set them a side for you! I love their creme brulee macaroons $2.50! soft and just perfect! they are pink in the outside and they have pieces of burnt sugar on the inside! i tried a pistachio and that was good but the other ones blew me away. They have special marshmallows, bars(i had a smores bar, she torch the marshmallow and it was amazing i wanted seconds.,..) and ice cream macaroons-( cant wait to try those). different goodies= different days great customer service clean place excited to go back for more!!!

I've never actually had any of Zingerman's candy bars so I bought two full size bars, plus a small version of the Cashew Cow. I think both the Zzang and Peanut Butter Crush were equally good. The store also has non-Zingerman's brand candies, such as Venchi, which is also a high-end brand. The shop doubles as a coffee shop, as well, and I think may have also had some small food items, but don't quote me on that. Overall, I would return the next time I'm in town.

I got to try Marupo Eats today at a pop up hosted by Argus Farm Stop Cafe (on Packard)! The menu…read morethey had for today was so fun, with sweet and savory treats as well as drinks. We ordered a few things to go: - Veggie Spring Roll & Pork Spring Roll; We ate these right away and loved! So crispy and flavorful. - 2 HK style egg tarts and 2 pastel de nata egg tarts; The HK one was good but maybe not the best batch? They tasted very dough-y. However, the Portuguese style tarts were delicious! The pastry is delightfully flaky. - Pineapple Bun w/Coconut Filling; Fantastic flavor, texture was a little dry. Overall I think everything might've benefited more from being eaten right away instead of hours later / next day, but that said, I'm looking forward to getting more Marupo Eats in the future! Heard they might be looking into options for being more available on an ongoing basis, so looking out for that and look forward to supporting. I believe you can also currently order direct from them which is a cool option! Updating to 5 stars after Bennett's (super speedy!) response - I feel confident that this is typically an amazing product and am very excited to have egg tarts available in Ann Arbor!

It's been years since I last visited Hong Kong and Macau and had a good egg tart. You really can't…read morebeat a freshly baked one directly from the oven from Lord Stow's after eating a pork chop bun, or from King Bakery while waiting for your flight at HKG. When I saw that Marupo Eats made authentic egg tarts every Saturday at the Ann Arbor Farmers Market (and in popups all over Ann Arbor), I had to visit. This weekend, they were out of the HK Cookie Crust ones, but they had the Pastel de Nata and some other delicious looking treats in the hot box. Pastel de Nata ($4) - This seem to be more of a Macau-style Portuguese egg tart than Hong Kong Style, with a flaky pastry shell and a nicely browned custard. The first thing I noticed was the size - these are around 2.5inch diameter on the top which seems a bit on the smaller side (although I could be misremembering how big they normally are). We ordered three in total and found these to be a little inconsistent. The first we ate had a very nice, delicately crisp crust, with a sweet and decadent filling. The second one had a very hard and overbaked crust that was hard to chew. I would have thought they were all made in the same batch so it was kind of strange. The guy manning the booth mentioned that they hand make the puff pastry and that they're in the process of moving commercial kitchens, so maybe that could explain the inconsistency? (4/5) Pineapple Bun ($5) - These are a bit smaller than a typical pineapple bun, maybe about half to 2/3 the volume. As I lifted it up, I noticed that it felt very dense for the size. I loved the scored cookie topping - it's well baked with a very nice and rich crunch in addition to having great aesthetics. The construction is pretty unique - in a usual pineapple bun, the crust is in a nice layer right on top of the bun, but this one goes all the way to the bottom and even underneath the bun. As a special twist, there's a bit of coconut paste baked in, which adds a nice coconutty fruitiness. The sweetness overall is very well balanced, not too sweet, which is perfect. The crust on top is delicious, but I think the bun itself might need a bit of work. I found it to be too dense with only very small air pockets, making the bun not fluffy at all (see pictures). I wonder if it's because the thicker and heavier cookie crust layer that surrounds the entire bun isn't allowing the dough to rise? It's still a good pineapple bun but could be better with a fluffier interior. (4/5) We also got a small sample of the hot HK-style milk tea, which I thought balanced the creaminess of the milk and the sweetness well. I'm not an expert, but I'm used to HK-style milk tea that's extremely strong and potent. I found the tea to be a little on the weaker side, but overall the drink was quite pleasant tasting. Marupo Eats has some of the most authentic HK/Macau-style egg tarts and other treats in Michigan. I'd gladly buy from them again whenever I'm at the farmers market and I recommend giving them a try.
