Here are the four biggest mistakes you can make as a cookbook writer.

You quit before you start.

Writing a book and collecting recipes can feel overwhelming. That's why we're here to help you break it into bite-sized pieces.

You make it harder than it has to be.

Seriously. It may take a little time to pull it all together, but this IS DO-ABLE. It may take three weeks, three months, or three years. Okay. Let's begin!

You're a victim of "binder syndrome."

We get it. Sometimes your best recipes are stuffed into binders with illegible notes in the margins. Now is a great time to clean those up and share!

You're a perfectionist.

If you're thinking, "If it's not perfect, I can't do it at all," then we're talking to you. Not sharing your love of food is like not inviting people over until the house is spotless. Just think of all the special moments you miss!

We know the publishing process can feel daunting.

But we've experienced the joy and pride that comes when you hold the published book in your hands.

You can too!

Let’s do this!

At The Cookbook Creative, we know it can take time to turn a great idea into a published cookbook. To do it right, you need an easy way to organize your recipes and stories. Unfortunately, many writers feel overwhelmed and quit before they even get started.

We believe publishing your own cookbook should be easy and we understand that a step-by-step process can make any project seem manageable. That’s why we’ve turned our 40+ years of publishing experience into an easy-to-use online publishing platform. We’ve also designed clean, modern templates to ensure you’ll create a book you’ll be proud of.

So create your account today. Then, upload your first recipe. You'll see how easy it is to collect and share your recipes!

Stop putting your awesome cookbook idea on the back burner and turn your recipes and stories into a professionally published cookbook!

HERE'S WHAT OUR FOODIES ARE SAYING...

Chef-Luke-Rogers

“As a celebrity chef, I get lots of questions about my recipes. Now I’m creating a custom cookbook that lets me share my passion for contemporary Italian cuisine. I’ll get to share the sauces I can’t live without. The secrets to choosing the best cuts of beef. Seafood, desserts… I could go on and on. Most of all, I want to encourage people to experiment, because when people ask, “How did you do this?” You know, it's incredible and it's super satisfying.”

“As a food photographer, I can definitely see the need for an easy way to publish cookbooks. Churches, nonprofits, families… I mean, unless a celebrity is backing a cookbook, most publishers won't publish the book. You need another option. My wife has one from her great grandmother. It's a Chilean cookbook. And my cousin put together all my grandmother's recipes. This platform can bring families and the food community together and home cooks and food businesses are the real experts.”

“I’m putting together a cookbook for my kids, who are off to college. Before I found The Cookbook Creative, my only option was to put a bunch of three-hole punched photocopies into a binder. Now I'm excited, because I have a way to make a beautiful, high-quality, hardbound book. I can’t wait to share our favorite recipes AND our family stories!”
