About Us

We have all heard of "cooked with love" or "love is the secret ingredient", right? Well what about prepared with "Hope"? Hopemade Foods, LLC is a small prepared food and catering business that offers seasonal products cooked with, and by, a Hope. Owner/ operator Maureen Hope created a business in 2023 to take her passion for cooking to the public. You may have caught her at Southwedge Farmers Market, The Rochester Public Market, R's Market, or at a fundraiser or festival selling her creations for people to take home and enjoy. Those were great experiences and a perfect way to test market what people like. Many of the items are vegan, but all are delicious!

When is it not the season for a potluck, right? There are office lunches, family gatherings, neighborhood picnics, pool parties, holiday parties, etc... Well if you are too busy to prepare your own dish to bring to the next potluck or just really don't enjoy cooking let Hopemade Foods help you out! It won't be a homemade dish, but a Hopemade one! We are available to cater small parties or to prepare individual dishes at your request. Unlike large catering operations, we are happy to customize the menu based on any dietary restrictions (vegan, gluten free, whatever...) you have so just message us through Facebook or Instagram or send an e-mail to hopefitzy@gmail.com
