We think our online cookbook software is the best out there – but that’s just our opinion 😉 So, you ask, what do our actual cookbook editors think?

Often when thinking about buying or using a product, folks ask their friends about what they think. In fact, when we ask how someone found our cookbook software and cookbook printing site, FamilyCookbookProject.com or CookbookFundraiser.com, the most common answer is a friend or family member recommended us. How about that! It’s just like the movies – “Is this or that movie any good?” we ask before shelling out our dollars.

Well, here are some of our most recent comments on our cookbook software:

“LOVE LOVE LOVE OUR BOOK! Deliveries started last night once I posted on FB . . .had folks coming over . . .but mostly it was my sweet husband who said “I am SO proud of you!” that made my night . . .you and your co-workers did an AWESOME job . . .it is so much nicer than I had even hoped . . .Thank you Thank you Thank you!! What a professional team you have there.”
–Cheryl Doublin, Four Sisters, A Legacy of Love from our Kitchens

“I have to say a huge THANK YOU! The cookbooks are amazing. I so appreciate your help in creating such a professional looking project. This buys me out of any family guilt-trips for YEARS! I work in a retail store, and my customers are asking me if they can buy a copy. Who knows how many more I’ll end up ordering.”
–Connie Roller, Food, Family & Friends

“I really enjoyed doing this and wish you had another cover for Holidays. I could do other books like “mom’s advice” on love, finances, work, etc. There’s no end to what I can think up! I hate seeing this come to an end…”
–Marilyn Griesemer, Good Food and Great Memories

“Our Truck To Table cookbook looks fantastic! Excitement is growing as all those who contributed wait for our “Release Party” this weekend. Sales will continue throughout the fall and the holiday season at various events here in Charlotte with our goal of presenting a substantial check in January to the Urban Ministry Center, an interfaith agency serving the homeless in our community.
“When we started planning for our cookbook, several in our group were reluctant to use an online publishing service for fear that individual assistance would not be available. With your excellent guidance, outstanding support, positive attitude and unending patience, you and your staff have exceeded our expectations.
“The cookbook committee joins me in thanking you for all that you have done to assist us in reaching our goal. You have been a joy to work with and we look forward to working with you again in the future on volume 2.”

“We received our order of cookbooks on Monday and LOVE them! They are the perfect size and easy to flip through and navigate around. My family is going to be thrilled when they see them! Thank you for creating a website that was easy to use! When I had this idea to create a book I assumed I would have to spend hours entering recipes but you saved us so much time by putting that responsibly on the contributors.”
–Jenny Lester, The Gadient Family Cookbook

“I worked with your team about a year and a half ago to create my family’s cookbook. When I gave the finished, published books as Christmas gifts to all the women in our family, one of my sister-in-laws cried because she was so touched and pleased. I just wanted to reach out to you again to say thank you for having such a great tool and team to help make this happen so easily.

–Leslie Schell, The Schell Family Adoption Fundraiser

“I am sure you make the majority of your money from published cookbooks, but my girls and I love using the online recipe box. I decided to do this when they all moved to different cities. I was recently in Austin over Thanksgiving and my daughter was cooking from her Netbook via online Family Cookbook. Often they ask for a recipe and I send it via online recipe share. I think this is great. Thanks!”
–Donna Field, The Field/Miller Family Cookbook Project

There are two collaboration scenarios that we wanted to address. The first, and most obvious, is fundraising cookbooks. Lots of schools, churches, non-profits, etc. use Living Cookbook to create their fundraising cookbooks. If the cookbook involves multiple contributors, the task of importing, exporting and editing multiple recipes from multiple sources can be cumbersome. We wanted to make it much easier and intuitive. In Living Cookbook 2015 the cookbook owner (usually the cookbook's editor) shares the cookbook with the contributors. The contributors add and edit their respective recipes. The editor reviews the submissions and exports the final draft. All of this happens without any imports, exports or e-mails. And all changes are immediate since everyone is working with the same online version of the cookbook.

The second collaboration scenario is heirloom recipes or family favorites. What we want to be able to is make it easy to share a read-only copy of recipe collections so friends and family can view, print or copy all of the recipes in the collection and any new ones as they are added. Living Cookbook 2015 makes this really easy.
