About Us
Welcome to Beloved Gourmet, a thoughtfully curated online shop based in Atlanta, Georgia, dedicated to elevating the everyday entertaining experience through meaningful, sustainable, and beautifully crafted kitchenware.
Born as an extension of the food blog Beloved Plate, Beloved Gourmet carries forward the same passion for cooking with love, intention, and joy. What began as an outlet to share a crowd-favorite recipe, has evolved into a mission-driven e-commerce brand rooted in authenticity.
Founded by Sharilyn—a classically trained chef, longtime culinary enthusiast, and former educator—Beloved Gourmet offers handcrafted, ethically sourced serveware alongside an all-purpose crunchy chili oil made in small batches by Sharilyn herself. Each product tells a story, from the artisans behind our curated collections to the chili oil that started it all. Together, they reflect a lifestyle centered on care for people, craftsmanship, and the planet.
Whether you’re hosting yourself or a larger gathering, Beloved Gourmet is here to help you create moments that feel intentional, joyful, and deeply personal.
Our mission
Our mission is to help people host in a more meaningful way by offering sustainable, ethically sourced, handcrafted serveware alongside gourmet goods that give back—including our small-batch crunchy chili oil created by founder Sharilyn, a classically trained chef and lifelong food enthusiast.
Founded upon nearly two decades of Sharilyn’s experience as an educator working with children and families, Beloved Gourmet was created to support a greater purpose: helping build pathways toward food security, empowerment, and opportunity for children in need. Through thoughtful sourcing, ethical partnerships, and a commitment to authenticity, we aim to inspire conscious gatherings that bring people together while creating meaningful impact.
At its heart, Beloved Gourmet is about more than products—it’s about community, generosity, and the belief that beautiful gatherings can help create lasting change.
Our Vision
Our vision is to use food, education, and thoughtful design as a force for lasting impact.
Beloved Gourmet was created to be a catalyst for Sharilyn’s philanthropic goals, with a focus on supporting children in need and helping create pathways toward food security, empowerment, and opportunity. Before founding the brand, Sharilyn spent nearly two decades as an educator, working closely with children and families—an experience that shaped her belief that access, care, and opportunity can alter the course of a child’s life.
As the brand grows, so does our commitment to building community, honoring craftsmanship, and creating meaningful change—one thoughtful choice, one gathering, and one shared table at a time.
CORE VALUES
At Beloved Gourmet, our values are centered around integrity and care. We believe in honoring the skilled artisans who craft our kitchenware, ethical partnerships, and choosing sustainable materials.
Guided by a commitment to conscious consumerism, we value quality over quantity, authenticity over trends, and meaningful impact over excess—recognizing that the choices we make in the kitchen can support people, protect the planet, and bring greater joy to the table.
