During Woops’! hours of operation, the shop will be hosting macaroon decorating with edible markers, blind taste-testing and raffles. These events are meant to be fun activities for community members and UA parents while also aiding an important cause. 

“We wanted to do something creative and eye catching to get people interested in the event. It will be really fun and hopefully a memorable time,” said Naomi Lippel, co-owner of Woops! BakeShop.
