It's cute and looks close to a real macaron. The texture is smooth and rubbery on the macaron and cream, which oddly feels similar to a certain cream on top of a cupcake. Looks great overall, and is very cute to have. I'm no necklace person, but being a fan of macarons made me want to get this badly. I say it's a perfect gift to give or to get for yourself if you enjoy macarons.
