How to keep macarons as long as a month and still taste good?

The key lies in the filling. Never fill your macaron shells when you know you can't finish them in a couple of days. Place the shells in an airtight container in a freezer. Fillings made especially from fresh fruits, goes bland when the macarons are filled and chilled for more than 3-4 days. Macarons are best consumed 1-2 days after being filled.

Remember, when you are ready to consume them, place the frozen shells out and leave them to dry for at least 20 minutes. The shells would be slightly softer than when they were freshly baked. Hence, handle them with care when you fill them. They are delicate creatures.
