KELLY
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 co-founder of Le Bon Macaron with locations in Ann Arbor, Holland 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 accomplishments are her daughters. More than Macaron has been a dream of hers for years, as she has always wanted to share her love of cooking, baking, and traveling with the world. Now it’s time to share her expertise with her daughters and inspire others.
Kelly spends her days working for the family business, helping her husband grow his business, Oxi Fresh Carpet Cleaning, trying to learn Italian for upcoming Le Bon Chaperon trips, and caring for her daughters and dogs.
CHELSEA
Chelsea has traveled the world living in both France and Poland, and adventuring around Europe with her Dutchman. Following in her older sister’s francophile shoes, she earned a degree in French Linguistics from Grand Valley State University. From study abroad student, to au pair, to English teacher, to foreign girlfriend, she has her fair share of tips and tales to share.
Chelsea moved back to Michigan in 2015 to join the family business, Le Bon Macaron, and bring it to new heights. Chelsea is married to her Dutchman and spends her days working with the family business, curating social media content for Le Bon Macaron and caring for her daughter, son and cats, and of course her Dutchman, too.
