The biggest Macaron sandwhich you've ever had!!

 

 

If you’re ever wandering through the charming streets of Kingston, New York, make sure you stop by one of the sweetest hidden gems in the Hudson Valley: Sweet Maresa’s Bake Shop. Tucked into a darling corner of town, this ultra-cute bakery is a haven for those of us who love a good treat — and even more so if you’re gluten-free, vegan, or just looking for something thoughtfully made from scratch.

Everything at Sweet Maresa’s is 100% palm oil free (a rare and wonderful find), and made in-house, right down to their delightful homemade jams and butters. This isn’t just a bakery, it’s a love letter to flavor, integrity, and handmade beauty.

As someone who has spent time in France (this is not a flex, just a fact) and sampled my fair share of authentic Parisian patisserie, I can honestly say: Sweet Maresa’s macarons are right up there with the best of them. Yes, really! Light, chewy, crisp-edged perfection in every bite. They’re the kind of indulgence you dream about after a long week.

And just when I thought it couldn’t get better, I tried their Macaron Ice Cream Sandwich. Imagine this: a creamy scoop of dreamy ice cream nestled between two gloriously oversized macarons. It’s like childhood nostalgia meets elevated French elegance, creating the perfect summer dessert. The one pictured below was a rose macaroon with pistachio ice cream, covered in crushed pistachios. Just reminiscing about all the elevated flavors that were encompassed in this beautiful sandwich is making me tear up as I write this!

“Sweet Maresa’s is proof that desserts can be ethical, elegant, and absolutely divine — all at once.”

Whether you’re treating yourself, bringing a box of goodies to friends, or just peeking in for a quick sweet fix, Sweet Maresa’s brings a sense of joy and intention that’s hard to find anywhere else.
