A few months ago, we asked our Family Cookbook Editors what they thought about our website, our software, our customer service and our cookbooks.\u00a0<\/span><\/span>

“Creating a cookbook with my Mom’s recipes made us cry and made me laugh.\u00a0 After her passing, we found all these incredible little notes and reminders she had saved through the years.\u00a0 We incorporated them into the cookbook, and everyone was delighted to have that little extra insight into her character.\u00a0 I was also thrilled to find many recipes in her own handwriting and my grandmother’s own handwriting, which I scanned in and also incorporated into the books.\u00a0 My sister helped me with the book from 3000 miles away, and we gave the books as Christmas presents to our siblings and all our nieces and nephews.\u00a0 They were thrilled.\u00a0 I was very happy with how easy it was to create our cookbook on your website.\u00a0 You made it simple and cost-effective – both big bonuses.”\u00a0 <\/span><\/div>\n

“After years of having hand-written recipe cards in a ziplock bag, I was able to use the family cookbook project website to put together a tribute to a dear deceased relative who loved to bake. I scanned each handwritten card for the photo then typed each recipe so they would be easier to follow. I gave them as Christmas gifts to other family members. I titled it “Alicia’s Favorite Recipes\u201d in honor of a wonderful daughter, sister and mother who loved to cook” It was a labor of great love, and I’m so grateful I found the family cookbook project website. I’m now working on a cookbook for my own recipes.” <\/span><\/span><\/div>\n

“I had talked for years about doing a family cookbook, but never found the right format.\u00a0 When I got a Groupon for Family Cookbooks, I knew this was what I had been looking for.\u00a0 Once I told my daughters and daughters-in-law about the project, they jumped on board, so I knew our family cookbook was going to become a reality.\u00a0 I chose the working title to be “The Duttlinger Family Likes to Eat” planning something better before publication.\u00a0 Instead I got outvoted and the title stuck!\u00a0 When the cookbooks arrived everyone was thrilled with them and immediately began making things that have been in the family for generations, but they never knew how to make.\u00a0 This definitely was a highlight for our family.\u00a0 Thanks you for making my dream come true.” <\/span><\/span><\/div>\n

“My first experience was wonderful.\u00a0 I didn’t know it could be so easy. My book was recipes from our Restaurant Buzzards in Mexico. It was just a whim but friends and customers expressed a desire to have one.\u00a0 I ordered 300 and sold out in just a few months. Retired now and making a second book for the kids and grands.\u00a0 As before Chip has been over the top helpful and writes back immediately when I have a little glitch. He informed me I can even take from my old book and include it in the new book, revise the old one, what ever I want to do. When I go on site both books are there for me. When my yearly membership is up I will defiantly get the life time option. Thank you familycookbookprofect.com<\/a> from the bottom of my crockpot!” <\/span><\/span><\/div>\n
