The Pasta Palette
Step into a world where vibrant, flavorful pasta awaits to delight your senses, alongside an array of gourmet foods and distinctive gifts.
In 2015, Mike & Terri Winder embarked on their culinary journey by opening The Pasta Palette, discovering a hunger for their offerings within the Frederick community.
Beyond their exquisite pastas and sauces, they curate gift baskets, pasta sampler sets, and an assortment of unique kitchen accessories.

Food enthusiasts flock from near and far to indulge in pasta crafted with real ingredients, produced in small batches, surpassing the quality of mass-market noodles. Pair it with a specialty sauce, and dinner is effortlessly planned!
Our Story
Specializing in farmers’ markets, Pappardelle’s distributed their products to over 250 markets nationwide. Around the same time, I was contemplating a shift away from healthcare and found myself considering the idea of selling pasta. Encouraged by the success of other businesses in downtown Frederick, we decided to take a leap of faith and join the farmers’ market circuit.
A few months later, an opportunity presented itself on Market Street, prompting us to make another bold move into a brick-and-mortar shop. Since then, we’ve expanded our offerings to include a variety of Italian-imported shapes and flavors sourced from other small businesses.
