Mademoiselle Macaron
The macarons are loved by celebrities including Paul McCartney and Courtney Love – and they featured in last year’s Barbie movie! Handcrafted by a team of elite pastry chefs in Scotland, they’re the brainchild of Rachel Hanretty, 35, from Edinburgh, who started the brand after learning how to make the French sweet treats in Paris at Michelin-starred chef Alain Ducasse’s cookery school.
Little Crafters
Little Crafters Boxes is a monthly eco-friendly subscription box for kids – it’s the brainchild of former teacher and mother-of-two Radha Borthayre, 41, from Lincolnshire, who set it up during lockdown. It’s now used by thousands across the UK, including local authorities and schools.
