On iPhone · Google Play coming soon
Your family’s recipes, kept together.
Grandma’s pierogi, Dad’s chili, the birthday cake everyone asks for — gather them in one private cookbook the whole family adds to, with photos and the stories behind every dish.
Free to start · Private to your family · Premium unlocks unlimited recipes
More than a recipe box.
A recipe card tells you how. Family Cookbook keeps the who, the when and the why, too.
-
Recipes with a story
Ingredients, steps, a photo of the finished dish — and the story of where it came from.
-
One cookbook, whole family
Share a code and everyone adds their favourites to the same private cookbook.
-
Sorted by category
Soups, mains, desserts and more — with the family favourites a tap away.
-
Shopping list
Turn Sunday’s dinner into a list for the store, so nothing’s forgotten.
The story behind the dish
Some recipes come with a story. Keep both.
Add the note in the margin — who made it first, what it was served for, the secret nobody wrote down. Family stories sit right beside the recipe, so the next generation gets both.
Recipe photos · Family stories · Cooking notes
Made for families. Not for followers.

Fill it together
Everyone adds their favourites. The cookbook grows a little every holiday.
One family. More than one cookbook.
Keep a cookbook for each side of the family, or one just for the holidays. Admins manage who’s in, and recipes stay put even when someone leaves.
From recipe to shopping list.
Planning a family dinner? Add what you need to the shopping list, and it’s all there when you’re standing in the grocery aisle.
Private by design
Your cookbook is visible only to the family members you invite.
Works offline
Recipes are there when you’re cooking at the cottage, away from Wi-Fi.
Recipes stay in the family
If someone leaves or deletes their account, the recipes they shared stay in the cookbook.
For every family kitchen.
