A few of the many reasons I love sourdough.

- It isn’t just a type of bread. For 3,000 years it was the only way to make bread.
- Sourdough starter naturally contains prebiotic and probiotic bacteria. While the probiotics are destroyed by the heat in baking, the prebiotics remain. These nutrients supports a healthy gut.
- Sourdough starter creates a culture of wild yeast which produces lactic acid. This is wait creates that distinct sour flavor.

Caramel Apple: this flavor is adapted from using traditional caramel to give a more delicate taste. I combined browned butter with an artisan green apple extract to create the most delightful Swiss meringue buttercream.

Pumpkin spice: All the right spices combined plus a secret ingredient 😉 makes this flavor irresistible this season. Try it with your morning coffee!

Monochromatic macarons are so appealing.

So excited for this very special delivery to a young lady who just received a new kidney.

I love the vintage vibes these are giving and how the cookies and cream filling coordinates with the design.

Hi friends, it’s been a while! Life has seasons of twist and turns and that is certainly true for a military family. When I opened Little Carousels Macarons just over three years ago I was in a place in my life where I needed something ,something to call my own. Something that I could nurture. Something that allowed me to use my creative talents. Something that could boost our families finances to pay for private school. It did all this and SO much more! I am so thankful for all the doors God held open for me that provided so many opportunities. To be honest, I am not a very good business woman as it goes against all I’m comfortable with. But I proved myself wrong. I am actually quite capable.
Having said all this, I am at a critical point with my business. While I do not want to give up baking fully because I believe in using your talents (and let’s be real,I’ve invested a lot), I am not sure I am going to continue with macarons. I have made a few batches since moving to Alabama and the joy just isn’t there like it was. I really thought after a nice long break that I’d be ready to jump in again but even the thought of piping makes me cringe (so crazy, right)?! Maybe I burnt myself out. Maybe this season is over . I’m not quite sure…

…maybe I’ll explore using my bakers skills to make sourdough bread to share. There’s a quote I love that says “ a sure way to make a new friend is to show up at their home with bread”. Isn’t that just lovely? Don’t we all need 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 friend? I also love interior design so maybe I get back into that in some capacity. I know! I’ll bring you freshly baked bread when you hire me to help refresh your home! The Baking Decorator ,lol! 😉

In all seriousness, if you’ve read this far, thank you! I felt like I owed it to you to give a quick life update. I am well. My family is well. Alabama is full of the most genuinely warm people that I can’t get enough of. I just think the wind may be blowing a different direction for me.

I would love your thoughts and encouragement as I navigate this.

-Your Favorite Baker

For the first time in two years I have empty containers. My last orders in Virginia just went out the door. I wasn’t sure how this moment would feel. It’s like wrapping up a very long work project. There is a great sense of accomplishment and relief but also sadness because it’s closing a chapter and I am unsure what the future of Little Carousels Macarons will hold.
I know I’ve told you all before but please never forget that I owe it all to 𝗬𝗢𝗨.
Next time you eat a macaron, my hope is that you’ll think of me…recalling the porch chats upon pickup, the laughs we had as I taught you to pipe and, most importantly, the memories you created with friends and family at your events. Because after all, those are the moments that matter most!

Baker friends, thank you for your support as well. Continue to lift each other up.

Sending well-wishes to each and everyone of you. 🫶🏻

Sincerely,
𝗬𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗳𝗮𝘃𝗼𝗿𝗶𝘁𝗲 𝗯𝗮𝗸𝗲𝗿

Good morning. With all our family has going on between now and mid June I figured now it’s time to kindly ask you to place your orders before we move. Many of you have asked me “what’s the latest I can place an order”? My best answer to that is : FINAL pickups will be the week of June 1st, no exceptions !
Get your orders in soon as I may not be able to accommodate everyone .

With tears in my eyes, I want you to know that it has been a true pleasure baking for each and everyone of you. I will forever value the new friendships I’ve made , porch pickup chats and being a small part of your special moments. 💗

Things to note:
•macarons freeze well for up to three months
•pickups will be in Great Falls, Va (Pentagon delivery arrangement can be made)
•Full payment is due upon ordering.

Something really amazing is in the works and I’m so excited to share!

I am joining to hopefully spread the word about this incredible new product. It’s an all natural, gluten and dairy free flavored powdered sugar. This just took my macarons to the next level!

Flavor below is orange creamsicle. 🍊

Bakers: please have a look at this business. You will not be disappointed!

If it has seemed quiet lately it’s because I left town quite abruptly for the birth of my best friends 5th child. If you recall from last year, this is the same friend that lost her daughter. I won’t be home for a few more days but I wanted to check in. 💙

I am still responding to questions about classes so decided to open up another date. Please note that this will likely be one of my last group class offerings before our family moves in June so now’s the time to jump in if you’re intrigued by how macarons are made. The class will be on 4/29 at 10am. I have ONLY three spots available. Please message me for more details. Price starts at $150/pp.
