A Year-Long Collaboration with Maman

June 28, 2025

If you live anywhere near Maman, the American French-inspired chain of bakery-cafés open in several states, Washington, D.C., and Canada, please stop in and try one of the five newest menu items! Maman and I have teamed up for a year-long collaboration that now includes some of my own favorite savory and sweet treats at all their shops!

I'm very excited to partner with Maman. Right now, the limited-edition summer menu includes my red iced tea with citrus & berries, my tomato tart from my 100th book, MARTHA: THE COOKBOOK, my turkey cobb sandwich, my ultimate kitchen sink cookie, and my crème brûlée sugar bun. We recently released the menu items at a launch party at Maman's newest flagship location in New York City. More than 75 influencers, colleagues, friends, and members of the media attended the event, trying every item - sometimes more than once! It was a fun gathering and a great way to introduce my menu items at Maman. Be sure to visit!

: Here I am with Maman co-founders, Elisa Marshall and Benjamin Sormonte, in front of their newest flagship café in downtown New York City.

: This weekend, please stop by any Maman and try the new summer menu items. There are more than 37 Maman shops in the United States and Canada.

: At the launch party, invited influencers, friends, colleagues and members of the media were directed to visit each of five stations to try my menu additions.

: My red iced tea with citrus & berries is made with red zinger iced tea and lots of fresh fruits to bring out the tea flavors. Each glass is garnished with a sprig of mint.

: This station features my rich, savory, vegetarian tomato tart. I often serve this to guests at my home and everyone loves it.

: The recipe is from my 100th book, MARTHA: THE COOKBOOK. It’s made using juicy, ripe slices of tomato arranged in concentric circles with grated fontina cheese in my pâte brisée pastry crust.

: Look how beautiful this is up close. It is a wonderful alternative to traditional quiche.

: Everyone got a slice to try. It’s great for lunch or as a first course at dinner.

: Personal size versions are made for the shop.

: Another station was dedicated to my turkey cobb sandwich – it has everything one loves about the classic cobb salad, but in a sandwich, including oven-roasted turkey, bacon, hard-boiled eggs, sliced avocado, lettuce, fresh basil, and Dijonnaise served on country bread.

: Every station was also very interactive. Guests were able to gather their own herbs to bring home.

: Of course, I had to include a cookie. And for Maman, I selected my delicious ultimate kitchen sink cookies. These cookies are so delicious and so easy to make – one doesn’t even need a mixer. The recipe is from my book, Martha Stewart’s Cookie Perfection. The recipe calls for dried fruits, nuts, chocolate, rolled oats, coconut. It’s all in there – everything but the kitchen sink.

: Guests at the launch event enjoyed mini versions served on shot glasses of cold milk.

: Can’t have cookies without a little milk…

: And this is my crème brûlée sugar bun – a sugar-crusted croissant filled with homemade vanilla pastry cream and a caramelized top.

: There was enough for everyone to taste and enjoy.

: It was so nice to see such an enthusiastic crowd. Here’s Elisa mingling with guests. Everyone had such a good time.

: Elisa and I also exchanged books. I signed a copy MARTHA: THE COOKBOOK and gave her some of my farm fresh eggs. She gifted me with a signed copy of Maman: The Cookbook, All-Day Recipes to Warm Your Heart.

: Each guest was able to bring home a copy of MARTHA: THE COOKBOOK. If you don’t already have it, order one today. I know you’ll want to read it cover to cover and make every recipe.
