In 2006, Sweet Gourmet was founded to cater to the demand for a store in Tyler that provided specialty food items, candies, and chocolates. However, it quickly became apparent to Owner Pam Gabriel that there was a need for more. Tyler was in need of a store that offered high-quality kitchen products, local merchandise, linens, gifts, and more.

Now, in 2023, Sweet Gourmet has doubled in size. While still retaining our original offerings that gave us our name, we have also added products from well-known companies like Le Creuset, Zwilling J.A. Henckels, Staub, Nordic Ware, Tyler Candles, Montes Doggett, and Olivelle infused Olive Oils and Balsamic Vinegars, among others. In addition to our retail options, we also provide a Wedding Registry, Corporate Gifts, Daily Tastings, Cooking Classes, and demonstrations.
