My family loves food, and more importantly, we love cooking together. For Christmas this past year, I decided to collect all of our family recipes and design a cookbook for my family. I worked with a printer in the UK to get a low quantity order, and I had custom cookbooks in my hands in a little over a month. I started offering custom cookbooks to friends and clients for their own families, and have now begun prepping to offer it as a purchase item here on my site. Take a look at my family’s personal cookbook below, and get in touch to place an order if you’d like one yourself!
Custom Cookbook Design
A Custom Cookbook is a great holiday or birthday gift for a loved one, offers a way to preserve family traditions, and can serve as a keepsake for memories. My process for creating a custom cookbook includes:
1. An initial consultation and discussion your needs, timeline, aesthetic and more. We will discuss things like photography needs, recipe count, budget, etc. and nail down a timeline for to supply needed assets.
2. Go Time: Once I have received all of your files or worked with you to complete a photoshoot, I will get to work and create the first draft of your cookbook. This step of the process ranges from 1-2 weeks depending on the recipe count.
3. Revisions: After I’ve supplied the first draft, we will work together to refine your cookbook. The booking comes with 3 rounds of revisions, but more can be added for a small fee.
4. Order Placement: Once we are happy with the design of the cookbook, I will place the shipment with my printer unless the client would like to handle this step themselves. I will then supply all tracking information to client for ease of delivery.
