Our Story
Sweet potato pie was never meant to travel fast.
The Origin
Foragé Atelier™ was born from kitchens where sweet potato pie cooled on counters, where peach cobbler came alive in cast iron, where food was more than sustenance. It was ritual. It was love. It was memory.
I grew up in those kitchens. My mama's slow hands, my grandma's porcelain bowl, the porch light glowing on long summer nights. These flavors carry the soul of those moments, and I've carried them into every bottle.
"This is not about novelty.— Karmen Smith, Founder · Foragé Atelier™
This is about reverence."
The Craft
Each syrup is slow-cooked in small batches, wax-sealed like a fine spirit, and offered in limited seasonal releases. Not because we can't make more — but because it wouldn't be the same if we did.
The restraint is intentional. The pace is deliberate. Every bottle is a rooted story, poured for connection.
Real ingredients.
Nothing artificial.

By hand.

To move through a place seeking what is good. To bring home what belongs at the table. To find, before others do, what is worth keeping.
Atelier · noun
A place of craft.
A workshop where things are made slowly, deliberately, and with complete attention. Where the maker's hands are present in every finished piece. Where ordinary materials become something worth remembering.
