  • I completely agree with fellow Yelper Stephanie S. I also went to Essence for a sweet tooth fix and was completely disappointed in the dessert/pastry selection. It seemed like the only items were the macaroons. (Yep, I use the English spelling as opposed to the French spelling.) I decided to go with the tiny sampler box for some variety, but at $6.00 I feel as if I was cheated. Most of the cookies and pastries were "meh, I've experienced better." The macaroon (just one) was by far the best item, but still not worth the price tag. I also got a lemonade and ginger ale to go. The lemonade was good. Not the best lemonade I have ever had, but it did taste better than a lemonade powder mix. The ginger ale is from the Grown Up Soda line... so it's a little weak, ginger-flavor-wise. I do have to say that I like the eco-friendliness of Essence. I really, really want to support any business that uses eco-friendly products and local produse, recycles, and composts waste. However, I think charging extra for an eco-friendly to go cup is lame. Since the biodegradable cup is an extra 50 cents, do I get a 50 cent discount if I bring my own reusable cup? I understand the economics of charging customers for more expensive (biodegradable) products, but a ton of restaurants and shops use those same products with no significant markup to the consumer. Whole Foods uses biodegradable products, recycles, and composts and they offer a discount to their customers for using reusable grocery bags. This business model works. Check out most places in Austin, TX. (Sorry, I will get off my soapbox now) Anyway, Essences looks really cute, so I will go back to try those great looking salads and eat more macaroons.
