Why together?

Recipes from the people who matter, in one book

A shared recipe book is more than a collection of dishes. It's a way to pass on everyone's specialities, to remember a moment and to create a shared keepsake.

The whole family's recipes

Everyone adds their favourite recipe, their must-have dessert or one handed down by a grandparent.

A keepsake for an occasion

Wedding, birthday, family reunion, retirement: a personal and delicious memento.

A book that builds itself

Each contributor adds their own recipes: the book grows little by little, with no retyping.

With friends

Your holiday recipes, your favourite nibbles, your everyday dishes, gathered in one shared book.

Where it all began

A wedding book, written by every guest

In 2017, I secretly asked each of our guests to send me a recipe that meant something to them. I turned them into a book for my husband. That is how Cocooko was born.

Frequently asked questions

All about shared books

Do contributors need to create an account?

Yes, a free Cocooko account, created in seconds from the invitation link. They can then find their recipes in their own space.

What if someone isn't comfortable with a phone?

Add their recipe for them: take a photo of their recipe card or notebook, and Cocooko does the rest.

Can we print several copies?

Yes, you choose the number of copies when you order: one for the newlyweds, one for each family.

Do I have to pay to use the app?

No, the app is free to use, for you and for contributors. Only printing the book is paid.

Who can see the book?

The contributors you invite. You then decide whether the book stays private or is shared more widely.

What about a school or cooking workshop?

Cocooko Pro adds a dashboard, recipe review and a book for each participant.
