Lady Yum: Bellevue’s One-Stop-Shop for Macarons & Decadent Gifts
Lady Yum may be known for its delicious macarons and unique flavors, but beyond the french pastry is a desire to create a place where community can gather. The company believes in the power of human connection and incorporating fresh, local ingredients. Madilyn Bechtel, regional manager at Lady Yum Bellevue said without the support of the neighborhood, they wouldn’t have a shop in Bellevue.
“It’s common for guests to take a walk around the space, especially when they need to unwind after a stressful day,” she said. “We want people to come, sit and enjoy a delicious macaron.”
Last December, the macaron shop made a permanent home in Downtown, welcoming guests into its elegant yet whimsical space in Bellevue Square. A shiny disco ball, pink and blue tassel chairs and fancy treats line the walls at the newest Lady Yum location. With 21 rotating flavors, 15 classic flavors and fun champagne options, it's a great place for a sweet treat. Upcoming Valentine’s Day specials include champagne gift boxes, mix and match macaron packs and holiday gift wrapping.
“Valentine’s Day is such a fun time," Bechtel said. “We enjoy putting together thoughtful gifts even if it's for yourself. We’re so grateful to continue bringing more guests into Lady Yum’s world of magic.”
Flavors We Recommend:
Salted Caramel: This salted goodness just melts on your tongue, made with sweet chewy caramel with the perfect amount of salt and a hard shell crunch to even it all out.
Unicorn: The bright color brings a nostalgic memory to any carnival trip, made with the sweet flavors of cotton candy with glitter and sprinkles for a WOW effect.
Toasted Coconut: Considered one of their best sellers, the toasted coconut macaron has the flavors of coconut cream pie with coconut whipped in the buttercream and toasted on the shell.
Raspberry Chardonnay: Beautiful and delicate, this macaron has a fresh pop of raspberry flavor blended with house-made raspberry jam.
