Margaret's French Bakery

In the 1960s, Margaret took her first trip to Paris and fell in love with the sights and sounds that filled the teeming streets. But mostly, she fell in love with the flavors. "I ate my way through that city," she says with a laugh. When she returned to the States, she could not find anything that measured up to what she'd tasted in France, so Margaret, who'd been cooking since the age of 10, began trying her hand at re-creating the flavors and textures that left her enamored with the City of Lights.

When she opened her first shop in 1983, she began crafting croissants, brioches, and tarts. Now, in her appointment-only headquarters, Margaret and her team continue to create those French confections as well as custom cakes, which serve as impressive centerpieces at weddings and natural habitats for tiny, well-dressed couples. Fondant and marzipan from Switzerland shield the towering creations, which are filled with Belgian chocolate and locally grown fresh fruit. Popular creations include a cake steeped in strawberries and Grand Marnier, a chocolate-raspberry mousse torte, and a princess cake, which layers spongy vanilla génoise, raspberry preserves, and Amaretto cream filling.

Margaret especially relishes the challenge of sculpting unusual cakes. In her kitchen, she holds her breath while putting the finishing touches on a batter-based construction sculpted into the shape of a stack of tires, which she is building for the wedding of two Jeep lovers.

The Groupon Guide to: Bold Choices

Einstein once said, "A life half-lived will only experience a half-life," an inspirational quote inspired by his bold addiction to radioactive isotopes. What are some bold choices that could transform your life?

  • Try adding some hot sauce to your food instead of just plain old sauce.
  • Play hooky, or its equally dangerous cousin, hockey.
  • Stand up to your neighborhood bully. If he kills you, the joke’s on him—murder is still illegal in your state!
  • If your name is Ben Kobold, change your name to Ben So-bold.
  • Quit your day job! This will free up time for you to pursue your real dreams: steady employment and financial security.

What are some bold choices that could transform your entire life?
