Kelly has been in the boutique bakery business since 2008. She is an award winning cake designer, previous owner of A Piece O’ Cake in East Lansing and the founder of Le Bon Macaron in Ann Arbor, East Lansing and Grand Rapids. Kelly has degrees in French and Art from Albion College and is a self-taught sugar artist. While her cakes have brought her many awards throughout the years, her proudest accomplishment is her daughter, Charlotte. Kelly stepped away from cakes with the sale of A Piece O’ Cake in 2014 in order to stay home with her daughter. More than Macaron has been a dream of hers for years as she has always wanted to share her cake designs and knowledge with the world.
