IMPORTANT COVID-19 SHIPPING INFORMATION

While the majority of our packages have been delivered without incident, PLEASE NOTE THAT UPS HAS SUSPENDED ALL DELIVERY GUARANTEES.  This means that your package may spend an extra day in transit.  (2nd Day Air has occasionally taken 3 days to arrive, Next Day Air has occasionally taken 2 days to arrive). 

Because of this suspension of guarantees, we have no recourse with UPS and this situation is beyond our control.

However, we are taking measures to ensure your shipment arrives as fresh as we intended.

1.  We are packing later in the day, as close to our UPS scheduled pickup as possible so that your order spends as little time packaged as possible.

2. We are adding extra ice packs to help counteract a possible extra transit day. 

3. Please note that the ice packs we pack with your order do not need to be frozen or even still cold upon arrival.  They are there to elongate the shelf life.  Our macarons are able to stay at room temperature for up to five days.  

Please plan your orders accordingly as this is a new situation for all of us. 

We thank you for your patience and understanding as we try to navigate through this unforeseen delivery obstacle. 

_______________________________________________________________

Ludovic Augendre

Executive Pastry Chef/Co-Owner of Mad Mac NYC 

Growing up in Paris, Ludovic Augendre was fascinated with following a culinary path. At the young age of ten, he was already making pastries with his great grandmother. When Ferrandi, one of the best culinary schools in France, opened its doors in search of new talent, Ludovic met Alain Escoffier, author of "Traite de Patisserie Artisanale." It was at this moment that he fell for the magic of pastry arts.

While in school from 1993 to 1998 Ludovic discovered his talents and passion for pastry art. In his free time he also worked for Mr. Demoncy and J.C. Vergne at Patisserie de L'Eglise, which was selected as "Best Pastry Retail Store in Paris" in 1997.

In 1998, after completing his studies, Ludovic knocked on the door at Fauchon Paris. From 1998 to 2001, he worked at Fauchon under Christophe Adam, Sebastien Gaudard and Philippe Givre. While in charge of the decorating station at Fauchon, Ludovic met Florian Bellanger, the Executive pastry chef of Fauchon in New York.  Shortly thereafter, Ludovic moved to New York City where he worked with Florian as his Executive Assistant Pastry Chef at Fauchon.  Ludovic would eventually become the Executive Pastry Chef at Fauchon.

An emerging leader in his generation of pastry chefs, in March 2004, Ludovic won third place in the U.S. Pastry Competition in New York City, with his masterpiece "Birth of Pinocchio." Many members of the press were quite impressed by his modern artistic vision, challenging techniques, and avant-garde style. Ludovic's cakes and pastries have a distinctive flavor and texture, which made him one of the best new-generation pastry chefs in the United States.
