It’s time to breakup, KS/MO 💔

It’s not you, it’s… well, it’s definitely us. July 18th in Atchison is your literal LAST SHOT at Paradox macarons in the KS/MO area.

We’re bringing 12 flavors to the Amelia Earhart Festival. Tell us what they should be in the comments so we can stop arguing about it in the kitchen.

P.S. Buy extra. They freeze for 3 months. Don’t say we didn’t warn you when you’re crying over an empty box in August. ✌️

Well… that was a plot twist.

About a year ago we moved Paradox to Atchison with only a mixer, a macaron obsession, and a complete lack of interest in doing anything quietly.

And somehow you all showed up for us in the best way. Orders, messages, market visits, flavor suggestions, and general macaron chaos. We are so grateful for the support this past year. Truly.

But life has decided to throw us another curveball and we are moving out of state, which means we are no longer taking any orders.

HOWEVER… one final paradox.

We already secured a spot at the Amelia Earhart Festival, so we will be rolling back into town July 18th with macarons one last time.

Yes, this will be your final chance to grab Paradox macarons.

One year. A lot of buttercream. Probably too much almond flour. Zero regrets.

Thank you, Atchison, for making our little pastry experiment such a fun ride. ❤️

We will be unavailable for the next several days. Sorry for any inconvenience. We will post when we are available again.

✨ not accepting orders at this time.

🚨 Out of office! Touch grass! 🚨

Paradox is officially OOO until 3/9.

✨ Pickups resume 3/14
✨ New menu drops soon (and if you’re expecting demure… you’re new here)

(Custom + large orders (2+ dozen) will still be delivered upon request IF we have availability because we’re dramatic, not unreasonable. There’s a difference.)

🚨 PARADOX IS ON PAUSE (because balance > burnout) 🚨

Life has been life-ing.
We’ve had some curveballs.
We’re adjusting before we hit full chaos mode.

So here’s what’s changing:

✨ PREORDERS? RETIRED. We’ll bake first.
Post what’s available. You claim it. Less pressure. More peace. Still elite macarons.

🎉 EVENTS STILL GET VIP STATUS. Weddings, showers, parties… yes. Minimum 2 weeks’ notice required. If you message me 4 days before your event… I love you… but no.

📍 SAINT JOSEPH UPDATE! No more weekly deliveries to Saint Joseph. We’ll come biweekly or monthly, but you’ll meet us at our set time & location. We can’t keep running a cross-state macaron taxi service.

📦 ATCHISON ORDERS… If you’re in Atchison, pickup only moving forward.

🚗 LARGE ORDER DELIVERY… 2+ dozen macarons can still be delivered within 40 minutes of Atchison.
$5 delivery fee if outside Atchison… (fuel isn’t free, unfortunately). Pickup is always free.

🛑 CONTACTLESS PICKUPS… We’re keeping pickups as contactless as possible. If paying cash, there will be a secure lockbox for drop-off. Area is monitored 24/7… let’s all stay civilized.

Paradox Passport Boxes ✈️ finally… our Passport Boxes are officially discontinued. The custom passports we outsourced? Yeah… we never actually received them. Love that for us. 🫠 Between that plot twist and the fact that orders for them have been basically nonexistent, we’re retiring the concept. To our one loyal Passport Box queen, you know who you are, we adore you. You get 10% off any order for the rest of the year because loyalty like that deserves rewards.

We do have exciting news about a market we’ll be joining this year 👀 If you prefer shopping in person, you’re going to like this.

Paradox isn’t going anywhere. We’re just choosing sustainable over spiraling. 🌀

✨ LET’S TALK GIRL SCOUT COOKIES AND SUPPORT A LOCAL TROOP

These are the ONLY cookies we buy. Period. End of discussion. 🍪💚

Yes, we support them because the Girl Scouts of the USA teaches girls how to run a business, set goals, manage money, speak confidently, lead boldly, and serve their community.

Our owner’s personal favorite? THIN MINTS. 🖤

When you buy a box, you’re helping fund:
✨ Field trips
✨ Community service projects
✨ Outdoor adventures
✨ STEM activities
✨ Confidence that lasts way longer than a sleeve of Samoas

📍 Catch a wonderful local troop in person:
• Walmart tonight till 8 PM
• Servaes Brewery tomorrow from 2-4 PM

Can’t make it? No worries. Click, order, and have them shipped straight to your house (aka the fastest route to happiness):

Support local girls. Teach them business.
Stock your pantry.
Hide them from your kids.

Everybody wins.

That's right! You can order your favorite Girl Scout Cookies from me online, all while helping my troop and I do great things in our community and beyond! Check it out.
