I haven’t stopped talking about it since and my family and friends were over the moon with their homemade goodies and I can’t wait to make my next batch of Macaroons!!!! I think the set up you have is amazing and not one person left here on Saturday without a smile on their face which must make your job immensely satisfying.” – Sara
