World Macaron Day March 20th
It's that special time of the year again. We are excited to participate in World Macaron Day on March 20th. It also happens to be International Day of Happiness. It's true; We didn't make that up.
We are joining Macaron makers all over the globe in giving back to local charities within' our community with all proceeds from the sale of our Golden Mini Egg Macaron.

Kaitlin - BC Children's Heart Centre Research BC Children's has been close to my heart for many years. I went there as a kid with a heart condition, and i also unfortunately lost a family member there to a heart condition. The nurses and doctors are so amazing and they deserve all the funding they can get. I can't imagine all the extremely hard work they put in every single day. |

Corry - BC Children's Heart Centre Research Childrens hospital has a special place in my heart for me as a Mother. My daughter is a patient of the Heart Centre there, and has received exceptional support from the Cardiac team to aid in her Dysautonomia disorder. Forever grateful after so many tests and numerous doctors to be led to their door with such care and experience.
The Children’s Heart Centre Cardiology Clinic is a training hub, building expertise in cardiac care for children and adolescents living with all kinds of congenital and acquired heart disease. |
