MacroTreats - Almond Perfection Cookie (Organic, Vegan) PDF Print E-mail

I must agree with the GoMacro website, the Almond Perfection MacroTreat is “irresistibly delicious”.  I loved this cookie and wished I had more to share.  It had a wonderful texture, somewhat similar to a Nutri-Grain bar, created from the coarsely ground almonds and whole-wheat flours.  This Treat has a strong maple syrup flavor, very tasty, but perhaps a touch more than I would require.  For a giant cookie it is relatively low in sugar (14g), but high in fat (15g), protein (7g), fiber (8g), and calcium (150mg).  The Almond Perfection MacroTreat may not cover my husband’s home-baked chocolate chip cookie cravings, but for me, it was a delightful big cookie / energy bar hybrid that satisfies nicely.

  • Pros:  Vegan; Organic; Free from refined sugars or flours; Compliments the Macrobiotic Diet; Great texture; Good source of calcium
  • Cons:  The maple syrup sweetness may be a touch strong for some, but a pro for others; On the high end of calories for a cookie or snack; high in fat

Recommended For: 

  • Breakfast On-the-go
  • A Mid-day Treat / Refuel
  • Macrobiotic Dieters
  • Maple Syrup and Almond Fans

Overall MacroTreat Review:

Go Macro Treats are truly inspirational cookies, free of refined sugars and flours, dairy, eggs, hydrogenated oils, additives, and preservatives.  High quality is evident right down to the organic grains and sweeteners.  The creators of Macro Treats have strictly adhered to the increasingly popular Macrobiotic Diet (think Madonna and Gwyneth Paltrow) to produce unrefined, whole and natural indulgences.  In fact, even the chocolate chips utilized in some of the Treats are grain sweetened.  These soft, jumbo-sized cookies are each very unique in their taste and texture, which is why we have broken the reviews down by flavor.

Where to Buy:

  • Online – Direct from Go Macro
  • In Store - Select Natural Food Grocers in the U.S.
