DESSERT SHOULD TASTE LIKE SOMETHING
FLAVOR-FIRST MACARONS & MERINGUES, MADE IN VERMONT
At Small Oven Pastries, everything starts with flavor.
Every macaron and meringue is built from real ingredients—local butter, real fruit, high-quality chocolate, and natural flavors that actually come through.
No shortcuts. No artificial fillers. Nothing you have to guess at.

When will my order ship?
Orders ship on Mondays and Tuesdays to avoid delays over the weekend and ensure they arrive as fresh as possible.
Will my macarons arrive safely?
We carefully package all orders to protect the shells and maintain quality during shipping.
Because macarons are delicate, minor imperfections can happen—but we pack every order with care to ensure it arrives in great condition.
What happens during warm weather shipping?
Macarons are sensitive to heat.
When temperatures are above 70°F, a $2.95 warm-weather handling fee is automatically added to include an ice pack and help protect your order in transit.
We strongly recommend selecting 2-Day or Priority Shipping during warmer months.
By placing an order, you acknowledge that shipping conditions are outside our control and that heat exposure during transit may affect the product.

What if my package is delayed in transit?
Once an order has shipped, it is in the hands of the carrier and delays can occasionally happen.
We ship early in the week to reduce the risk of packages sitting over the weekend, but transit times are not guaranteed.
Do you guarantee delivery dates?
We do not guarantee delivery dates, as shipping timelines depend on the carrier.
If you need your order for a specific event, we recommend selecting expedited shipping and ordering in advance.
Can I change or cancel my order?
Because we work in small batches, we may not be able to make changes once an order is in production.
If you need to request a change, reach out as soon as possible and we’ll do our best to accommodate.
