Special Announcement regarding custom orders for the holidays:
Previous years I have done 2 separate macaron menus during the holiday season: one menu for the artisan market, and the other for the holidays (halloween, thanksgiving, christmas)
This year I am just doing my one menu (3 flavors) for the whole month in order to keep time open for any custom orders for the holidays as well as allowing myself personal time to enjoy the holidays.
If you would like to place an order for macarons, bread, or any other baked goods, I will have a limited amount of time slots available, but please do not wait! They will fill up quick as the holidays approach!
Note:
For custom flavor orders (that is, flavors that are not on the current flavor menu) it is one flavor/dozen

Introductions
Home Baker and Lover of Food: Teri Maisonneuve
Hi! My name is Teri Maisonneuve!
I am a local cottage baker located in Decatur, Indiana specializing in handcrafted French Macarons featuring fun and unique flavors.
I first started my own adventures in food about 15 years ago when I sat in front of the television with my grandfather watching every cooking show that came on. My grandfather and I started a very innovative cooking relationship; he would go out to the grocery and buy ingredients, I would cook whatever out-of-the-box recipe I thought of, and we would both enjoy a meal together.
Since then, I have continued to read, watch and consume any piece of cooking or baking information that catches my attention and try every day to improve my skills.
Why French Macarons?
When I first started baking, I had just begun working with bread and pasta. Upon reading and hearing from several sources in my bread research, macarons were difficult...one of the most difficult pastries to perfect. I wanted to challenge myself and thought they were the perfect canvas for so many fun and different flavor combinations!
Oh, I had to try...and try and try and try again!
Because in truth, I was dedicated to getting it right, but it would take me nearly 5 years to learn from all the mistakes (and there were many). And although I am still learning with every batch I make, I am so happy with my progress!
Whether it be a box of macarons, loaves of bread, or pans of cinnamon rolls, I will always pour my heart into everything I bake and prepare
It is more than just a hobby to me, it is a passion and a deep love
Markets & Events
Serving Decatur and the Surrounding Areas
SHOP LOCAL
While I may venture north and attend Fort Wayne Artisan/Farmer's markets in the future, for now I am staying local and participating in markets in my immediate area.
I love working with local shops in Decatur and the surrounding areas during the holiday season and for special POP-UP markets!
What makes these special events even more fun is that I will usually do
unique and exclusive macaron flavors just for that event!
I just started selling my macarons publicly around August, 2024 at the Decatur Artisan Craft Market at the Riverside Center. That particular market is on-going from the months of Oct-Apr on the Second Saturday of every month from 9am-2pm.
I am still learning what different markets are around my area! If you run/own a market/shop and would love to have me as a vendor, don't hesitate to reach out to me at the Contact Us section below.
I am active on Facebook/Instagram and will always post when/where I will be for that month/event and what flavors of macarons I will have along with any other baked goods I may be selling
Be sure to follow us for all the drool-worthy macaron/bread/dessert pictures and current macaron flavor menu!
