Well our last day is almost here… after 11 beautiful years, tomorrow will be our final day of opening the doors at Marché du Macaron.
We have been so busy since announcing our closure a fortnight ago that we haven’t really had a chance to stop, take a breath, and take it all in. While we never took your support for granted (without it we never would have made it this far!!!), we really didn’t realise until recently how much of a huge impact Marché has had on so many peoples lives. The stories, the tears, the hugs, the laughs and the most heartfelt goodbyes that have been shared in the past week have absolutely blown us away. It has absolutely taken our breath away. So thank you - all of you. We will no doubt share lots of feelings with you over the next 24 hours as we feel all of the emotions so, for now, lets get serious and talk about tomorrow…
With our final day there is both good and bad news. The good news is that we are open tomorrow and we are going to be making sure the coffee machines are on for their last time, the counters are absolutly overflowing with yumminess and we will all be wearing our biggest smiles (and maybe some tears - be warned!)
The bad news is that today, because of your AMAZING and completely unpredictable amount of support we have essentially sold out of most of our macarons. As any of you know who have seen us making our macarons or who have done a macaron class, they are not something that can just be ‘whipped up’ over night. We have made literally thousands and thousands and thousands of them this week - our gorgeous staff have worked literally around the clock to keep the cabinets filled with our beautiful macarons but over the last 24 hours you have absolutely blown us away with your love and support. We quite literally couldn’t keep up… and so we have essentially sold out of macarons!
We will however wake up before anyone else in Brisbane tomorrow to ensure there is a huge and steady supply of your other Marché favourites... but if you visited the stores today you would know that there is lines going around the corner at both stores and we will undoubtably sell out of everything we make… which makes us very happy and feel very loved at this time!
TLDR… so although we may have sold out of some of our wonderful creations for our last day of trade we will still be here creating so much more Marche magic and we would SO LOVE to see you - you don’t even have to buy anything - we would love to just see you and give you a final hug before we close the doors for the last time at Marché du Macaron.
Ok now we are crying again. See ya tomorrow. Heck we love you all so much! x
