Plans

Yes. Starter lets you make and print a complete cookbook, with unlimited recipes and chapters and the free starter template. No credit card required. You only pay for printing and delivery, at standard print prices.

Premium gives you premium templates, tools for adding photos to recipes, and the option to invite others to contribute. Invited contributors sign up for their own accounts.

Community includes everything in Premium, plus your own recipe collection form. Anyone with the link can submit a recipe without signing up. You also get unlimited premium templates, editor and designer invites, and 30% off printing instead of 20%.

Premium saves you 20% and Community 30%, off Starter print prices. The discount covers printing, not delivery, and applies while your plan is active. Upgrading also updates the print prices on books you’ve already published. When a paid plan ends, those books go back to Starter print prices.

On printing alone, Premium pays for itself once you’d spend about five times its yearly price on printing. Community gets there at about 3.3 times. Both use Starter print prices and exclude delivery. Try the print calculator with your own book and quantity.

You keep your plan until the end of the year you’ve paid for. After that your account moves to Starter and you keep everything: your cookbooks, your recipes and your premium templates, including any template tokens you haven’t redeemed. Printing discounts end when your plan does.

Create Cookbooks gives you the tools to make your own. If you’d rather someone handled the design and layout, our partner Bookdelish offers a separate cookbook design service.
