Le Macaron: An Exciting Bakery Franchise Opportunity
Le Macaron Founders
Rosalie Guillem and Audrey Saba are the founders of Le Macaron French Bakery. Their mission is to capture the French spirit in every delicacy they create, including macarons, coffee, gelato, chocolates & candies, French pastries, and cakes. They spent months collaborating with a French-trained pastry chef to select the finest quality ingredients and craft authentic French macarons—a delightful taste of heaven. Le Macaron also offers an exciting franchise opportunity, allowing others to bring this unique French experience to their own communities.
