Cecilia's Pastries of Ann Arbor

Just a quick note to let you know that you should definitely check out Cecilia's pastries of Ann Arbor. Her products, consistently french macaroons, sometimes other pastries, are for sale at New Chelsea Market out in Chelsea, MI. Cecilia used to sell at Eastern Market in Detroit, but lucky for us now sells at the Ann Arbor Farmer's market. Although this classically trained pastry chef sells to Eve, she does not have her own storefront. According to her website, she never had a desire to have her own shop because of her desire to have her customers consume her products within a few hours. Obviously this speaks to her passion for quality control. I can attest to this from only enjoying her classic french macaroons. This evening my family got the chance to sample five different flavors: vanilla, raspberry, chocolate, almond, & coffee. They were excellent, and quickly devoured. The flavors were clean; the textures of the macaroon were perfect. Crispy on the outside, soft in the middle; each macaroon filled with a complimentary cream center.

Cecilia plans to return to selling at the A2 farmers' market in March when the weather improves. This is something we all have to look forward to.
