We go through literally millions of our 'jellybean' 10uF caps - more specifically 10uF 16V 0805 X5R 10% ceramic capacitors. There can be dozens on every board we make, they're great for an extra bulk capacitor, alongside your 1uF or 0.1uF higher-frequency friends.
They're also a ton smaller than electrolytic caps (https://blog.adafruit.com/2021/02/09/the-great-search-electrolytic-capacitors-thegreatsearch-digikey-adafruit-digikey-adafruit/)! We'll look for some options you can use, my recommended voltage ratings and package sizes, what 'X5R' and 'Y5V' means, and when you should NOT use MLCCs!
