Turn your recipes into a printed cookbook
Give your recipes to the people you love. The meals you cook for them. The ones from grandma. Your family's table, printed in a real, bound book and shipped. The gift no one expects, and no one forgets.
The recipes you cook for the people you love deserve more than a screenshot.
The pasta sauce your sister begs for every Sunday. Your dad's chili. The cookies you bring to every birthday. Your grandma's pie crust, on the index card she gave you.
They live in screenshots, drawers, and your phone. They could live in a real book. Bound, on a shelf, in their hands.
Give them the cookbook. They'll keep it forever.
How it works
From "I cook this all the time" to a real book on your shelf. Want every step? Read the full guide to turning saved recipes into a cookbook.
Save what you cook
From TikTok, Instagram, recipe sites, or photos of handwritten cards. Share it to Aldenté and it lands in your library.
Curate the keepers
Group them into a cookbook: weeknight dinners, holiday classics, the recipes Grandma actually made. Edit, rewrite, and add your own notes.
Print & ship
Pick a cover, preview the layout, and order. We print and ship it to you, or directly to whoever you're gifting it to.
Giving it for the holidays? Order early.
Standard shipping takes about 2 weeks. Express takes about 1 week. Australia and New Zealand take about 3 weeks. Count back from the day you want to give it, and leave a few extra days in December, when our printers are busiest.
Who do you want to give one to?
A box. A book. Their name on the cover. The recipes they've cooked your whole life, finally written down. Or the meals you've cooked them, given back as something they can hold.
For your mom
Her recipes, written down for the first time. The ones she's made your whole life, given back to her in a book with her name on it.
For your grandma
Before another year goes by. The recipes that built your family, captured while she's still here to read them.
For your partner
A "first kitchen" cookbook of the meals you cook together. A keeper next to the mixing bowls, for weddings, anniversaries, or just because.
For your friends
The dinners you've cooked them. The meals everyone in the group chat asks for. Printed and given to the people who showed up at your table.
For your kids
What you cook for them now, becomes what they cook for their kids. Make sure the recipes don't get lost when they leave home.

Chicken Burrito Bowl
Ingredients: 1 cup long-grain rice, 1 lb chicken thighs, black beans, corn, pico de gallo, guacamole, lime, cilantro.
Method: Cook the rice with lime and cilantro. Season and sear the chicken. Build the bowls…
Mom's note: "Always double the lime. Always."
Every recipe in the book includes the photo, the cleaned-up ingredients list, the step-by-step method, and any notes you've added. Edit the title. Rewrite the steps. Add a dedication. It's your book.
The move that destroys people (in a good way).
Make the cookbook for them. Their recipes. Their handwriting. Their cooking life, captured before another year goes by.
Spend an afternoon at their kitchen
Have them tell you the recipes. Take notes. Take photos of the cards. Snap pictures of the dishes. The afternoon itself becomes part of the gift.
Save it all into a cookbook in Aldenté
Photos of handwritten cards. Their voice in the recipe steps. Notes like "she always doubled the garlic." Their cooking, in their words.
Add a dedication page
"For Mom, for every Sunday dinner." The thing they'll read first, every time they open it.
Print it. Give it back to them.
Watch what happens when they open a book with their own name on the cover, full of the recipes they've cooked their whole life.
“She opened it and didn't say anything for a minute. Then she said, ‘You actually wrote this down.’”
