We make clothes for people who love food a little too much.
Not in the “brunch is a personality” way. More like... you know what “mise en place” means, you’ve made pasta from scratch once (or thought hard about it), and your idea of self-care is opening a really good tin of fish.
We’re a small apparel brand serving up wearable tributes to food culture: shirts, hats, and totes that speak your (love) language.
From omelette du fromage to cacio e pepe, we design for the flavor-obsessed, the chef-curious, and the pantry maximalists.
Every piece is made in small batches, every phrase is cooked to order.
Chef-inspired. Design-obsessed.
As a former chef, I used to be behind the line plating dishes.
​
I spent years working as a chef, obsessing over ingredients, balance, and the kind of details most people never see but always taste. Eventually, I traded my chef’s coat for a sketchbook. Taste Message was born out of two things I love deeply: food and design.
Now I’m based in Seattle, making small-batch apparel for fellow flavor nerds, casual cooks, and anyone who’s ever bought olive oil just because the label looked cool.

As a former chef, I learned that quality ingredients make the difference between a decent dish and one you’ll remember forever.
​
The same goes for clothing. That’s why every shirt we make is cut, sewn, and printed in the USA using premium fabrics. Because details matter, and shortcuts make for a bland product.

Thanks for being here. I hope you're hungry.
