The Perfect Gift for the Chef in Every Family

(ARA) - From Thanksgiving to New Year’s Eve, food and gift giving accompany every occasion. Finding the right gift for that special chef in your life can be a challenge. A cookbook is a great gift, but how do you know which one is right for them?

“People who love to cook are creative,” says Chris Bradley, from Fundcraft Publishing. “Our new digital cookbook is a fun format that allows people to be even more creative, not only with their fabulous dishes, but also by inventing menus, recipe collections and whole cookbooks. Now they can share their creations with their loved ones.”

Whether people love to cook, or they want to learn how, Fundcraft’s Digital Cookbook covers all the bases. This do-it-yourself cookbook tool has a database of over 250,000 recipes, with a search engine that allows you to easily find the perfect dish to fit your event.

Additional features of the Digital Cookbook allow you to:

* Import recipes. Upload recipes from other recipe programs with the click of a button.
* E-mail recipes. Share a recipe with a friend or two. Simply click on the e-mail button, and choose the recipe you want to send.
* Create specialty cookbooks. Name and build your own special cookbooks. Organize by holiday, food type, appetizers or main dish, baked goods, vegetarian, dairy free or even Grandma’s favorites.
* Print a recipe or print a whole cookbook. Select the book or page you wish to print and how many copies. You can print one for your kitchen shelf or many to hand out at the family party.
* Create your own cookbook of all your own recipes. Enter each recipe into the database and then organize it into one or as many cookbooks as you want. It easily becomes searchable along with the entire database.
* Craft a menu for a special occasion and print up a cookbook to share with everyone who attends for a beautiful keepsake gift.
* Flag recipes as your favorites, alter recipes to your taste, or make copies of a recipe.
* Publish your cookbook. Upload your cookbook file directly to Fundcraft to print your book in a beautiful, hard- or soft-cover binding. Or save the cookbook file to your computer to e-mail at a later time.

The program contains an A to Z glossary of cooking terminology, a kitchen unit converter and a reference of cooking and health tips to help you do it like the pros, including a meat cooking chart, a guide to common kitchen baking pans, a substitution chart and an herb library, among others.

You can easily create gifts for the whole family with the Digital Cookbook. Collect recipes for your brother who’s learning how to cook, gather heart healthy recipes for your dad, or compile a special dessert collection for the sister with a sweet tooth. Design a Christmas cookie cookbook as a party favor or put together a collection of special family heirloom recipes. Either way, these personal gifts will be coveted for years to come.

Whether it’s a gift for the chef you love or for your own home, the Digital Cookbook ($19.95) is very affordable. Fundcraft offers free shipping on their Digital Cookbook software during the holiday season. For more information or to purchase your own copy visit www.cookbooks.com.
