Recipe Book Visual Research

Recipe Book research 27-28/03/14

Yesterday I went out and looked at some recipe books, looking for interestingly designed books or books that had an extra element to them, especially when the cover was involved.  Here a few that I found.

Made from scratch vegetarian
Love-Food
www.parragon.com/lovefood

 

This book got my attention with its 3D, scratch layered cover. All the dishes were vegetarian dishes and easy to make.

Harmlyn All colour cookbook
200 low fat dishes
Cara Hobday

 

 

A small little book with a very formal look about it and easy to carry around

The Australion womans weekly
The Bumper book of kids birthday cakes
Acp books

A large, bulky, hardback children’s books full of delightful little recipes. The inside pages were nicely designed with a photo/three dimensional element to them.

Donna Hay
No time to cook
Publisher Hardie Grant books

A charming and quite recipe book with a cut out designed front cover. The main colour was light blue and I felt calm just looking at it.

Nutella - 30 best recipes
Larousse
2011
By Jaequi Small

 

 

This was a partially strange but well designed book cut out in the shape of a Nutella bottle and contained recipes using Nutella.

Coca-Cola Cookbook
An Hachette Uk Company
2013 Octopus books

 

 

Even stranger then the Nutella book was the Coca-Cola cookbook which contained information about Coca-Cola and full recipes to do with Coca-Cola (which I’m still confused about)
