Meet Maria

14+ years in the food industry — I've been where you are.

My health journey led me to discover the power of food — going gluten-free changed everything. That passion turned into a business: making pasta, selling at farmers markets. After 14+ years in the industry, I know firsthand what it takes to start and grow a food business — the permits, the production, the hustle. That's why I built Sincerely Kitchen: to make it easier for you. I personally walk every new member through the process, because I genuinely care about helping people turn their food dreams into real businesses.

Common questions

Do I need any experience to join?+

No. Many of our members are first-time food entrepreneurs. If you can make your product at home, you can make it here. We'll help you figure out the rest.

How long is the commitment?+

All memberships are 6-month agreements that automatically renew for another 6 months. New members can start with our Starter 10 package for their first 3 months, then upgrade to any of our other packages. You can upgrade or downgrade your package at renewal.

What if I don't have my permits yet?+

That's totally fine — most new members don't. We help you get them as part of your membership. Most people are approved within 6–8 weeks.

Can I visit before deciding?+

Absolutely. Book a free 45-minute kitchen tour. We'll show you around, answer questions, and talk about your plans. No commitment required.
