Hello, my name is Stephanie

Inspired by my upbringing in a large Australian-Lebanese household where eating formed the heart of every celebration, the velvet pear is an artistic expression of the joy felt when gathered around the table with loved ones.

I am a mother, a passionate foodie, an all-encompassing storyteller, mood creator, and sensory connoisseur with a detail-oriented mind and a ceremonious spirit.

My passion lives at the intersection of creativity & connection, and the velvet pear is a home for these threads of my being to thrive.

Let me join you as we delve into the intricate notes of your upcoming event, weaving a vision together and igniting the pleasure of sharing.
