Hamilton East Public Library is promoting library card month. So consider having/getting/renewing…read morea free resident or (with a fee) non-resident library card during September. If you show your library card at listed participating restaurants and other business, you might enjoy something special. Last year was the first time with this concept. This year I think the deals are better; I decided to make sure I participated. After using my library card at Puccini's, I drove west to Le Macaron as their special is 20% off $3 macarons. I again bought lemon cream macarons. While I was there, I sampled a meringue which tasted like dry cotton candy. I will try to return during September for the other limited time special per my pic.

If you are considering it, take the macaron 101 class here! It's totally worth the money. Look for…read morea BOGO deal. I'm not sure how often they run it, but I was able to snag one. My boyfriend and I had the best date night here. The instructor was so knowledgeable and fun to listen to. We loved every minute and brought home about three dozen macarons we made. Yum!

This place touts itself as having the "best macaron this side of the Atlantic" as well as having…read morethe macaron flavors listed on the website in French, so needless to say, expectations were extremely high for Union Baking Co. to have an excellent authentic French macaron. It's worth noting that this isn't a place you just walk in -- you have to place an order online, via Facebook message or by phone first, then set up a time to pick them up. I placed my order via email, which was a fast and easy process. I placed an order for four flavors -- vanille, chocolat, citron and pistache. The pistache was by far my favorite! I couldn't believe that it tasted almost exactly like the pistache macaron I had in France at Laduree! My only complaint would be that, although the texture of the cookie part of this macaron was excellent, the filling was a little runny. It appeared that these may have been freshly made, so giving them an hour or two for the filling to firm up probably would have fixed that very minor issue. Although I didn't think the vanille, chocolat and citron macarons were as close to those same flavors of macarons I sampled in France, they were all good and after sampling them, I wished I had placed an order for all of the flavors they had. It appeared that Union Baking Co. is more of a catering/custom order company, but they were happy to fill my tiny 4-pack order. I am usually more interested in spontaneously stopping in a place and getting macarons immediately than in waiting for an order, but if you're fine with waiting a few days or you need a customized/large order of a variety of macarons, this is the place to order from!

I was so happy to be able to order some Macarons for my spouse on Valentine's day. Ordering via…read moreemail was super easy and they were very kind in getting my order put together by the time I needed it. The Macrons went over extremely well and my wife (and our kids) enjoyed them immensely. They were very high quality, fresh, and flavorful. I'll be looking forward to ordering more in the future.

Sometimes it is not working, not ready, etc. today all I needed was a cup of hot water and that could not be given.

First time back in Fort Wayne in a while visiting family, and I had a great experience at Fortezza…read moreCoffee. I ordered a caramel latte, and it was made to perfection. Smooth, flavorful, and exactly what I was hoping for. The barista was incredibly welcoming and friendly, and even took the time to point me toward a cool used guitar shop nearby, which was a nice personal touch. The atmosphere was relaxed and inviting, making it a great place to sit and enjoy a coffee. I'll definitely be stopping by again the next time I'm back in Fort Wayne!

I always try to stop here when I'm driving from Michigan to visit my friends in Indiana. The coffee…read moreis amazing - on this trip I decided to get an espresso and a pumpkin spice latte. The espresso was perfect and hit the spot (I needed all the caffeine for my drive home), and the latte was really good. It tasted just like pumpkin pie, but was slightly on the sweeter side. I would have probably asked for a little less sweetener, but that's just my taste. It's also very nice inside with lots of seating. I didn't try any pastries this time, but they look delicious.

What a treat to find French Pastries in the heart of Indiana! Let Macaron is a chain that offers…read moremacaroons, meringues, eclairs, gelato and more. All are made by a French trained chef and brought to the location. The shop is lovely decorated like a French cafe, complete with the Eiffel Tower and pink seating. We had meringues and coffee, perfect on a cold day. The meringues were light and sweet. The coffee was bold and hot. The clerk was friendly and offered suggestions. I can't wait to bring my granddaughters it. They will love it.

One step in and you are wowed by the pink theme which is so perfect for intimate gatherings, small get togethers or just celebrating a party. I chose mango and orange macaron and describing them as decadent would fall short of how fresh, crunchy and flavorful in the best possible ways it was. I also ordered a chocolate pate which had exquisite just stellar quality chocolate and was divine! There's coffee and a whole lot of gelato flavors so something for everyone. Note that the place is well priced so that may be a deterrent for some but the quality and fresh taste made up for the price. Highly recommend!

What a hidden gem! This will just be a quick review as it is just an ice cream shop, albeit a GOOD…read moreice cream shop. Located next to the famous Fort Wayne Coney Island in downtown Fort Wayne, Indiana, Sweets on Main is an adorable locally-owned ice cream shop that opened on Main Street just a few years ago. Lots of love and care went into making this a great ice cream experience for customers, including instagram-worthy photo walls, a place for kids to play in, good pricing and hours, and of course - delicious ice cream. After a yummy lunch at the coney dog restaurant, my boyfriend and I still had room in our tummies for dessert and I have had Sweets on Main bookmarked for a bit. We only wanted a little portion of ice cream (we were gonna have lots of birthday cake later that day) and we were happy to see that a small portion of ice cream was only $3! We tried a few flavors - I spent a while debating between getting banana pudding and brown butter bourbon truffle - and then we chose our flavor. I got the brown butter flavor as I love ice cream with texture and my boyfriend got the Michigan Pothole flavor. To our surprise, each scoop also came with a FREEEEE topping of our choice! We both chose to get the biscoff sprinkles. Then we paid, sat down, and enjoyed our yummy treats! There are plenty of seats and the service is great. Overall, I highly recommend Sweets on Main for a fun treat. Great ice cream and great prices!

Getting there - Parking is in the back behind the building and it's free! This is right next to…read moreConey Island. This is my go to ice cream spot and where I take out of state friends/fam! Ice cream flavors are bomb. I recommend getting the macaroon ice cream sandwich or in a waffle cone. I enjoyed the coffee and birthday cake ice cream flavors. Service is always top notch. Ambiance is also laid back.

This is my third experience here. Every time it's been better and better…read more First two times I came in for just one or two pieces of pastry. This third time I was picking up 18 pastries - 3 different types- all delicious and superbly baked AND a cake. WOW! The cake was amazingly beautiful! delicious and decorated exquisitely with huge intricate frosting flowers and leaves. I'm very very happy with my order- they even helped me carry it to the car. This bakery made my special family party a huge success, everyone enjoyed the food and remarked on how delicious it looked and tasted. Thank you SO much for making the event extra special

I don't even know where to begin... I came in for a pastry and left emotionally attached…read more Let's talk about the croissants. I had not one, but TWO -- and I regret absolutely nothing. The raspberry pistachio croissant? Oh. My. God. This thing had me in a chokehold. Flaky, buttery layers with the perfect balance of tart raspberry and rich pistachio. It wasn't just good -- it was write-home-about-it good. The kind of pastry that makes you pause mid-bite and question every other croissant you've ever had. The second was a croissant sandwich (I wish I could remember the name!), but the way those flavors paired together? Let's just say it was a full culinary experience. Savory, balanced, indulgent -- you get the hint. Every bite just made sense. Now here's the part that really says something: I grew up on the East Coast where authentic French bakeries are everywhere and the cultural standard is high. I know a proper croissant. And this? This was better. Yes, I said it. We even had the chance to speak with the owner, who was incredibly warm and genuine. He checked in to make sure we enjoyed everything -- which we clearly did, considering we left with boxes to take home. This place isn't just a pastry shop. It's an experience. And trust me, it will be a topic of discussion in our house for days. Run. Don't walk.
