THE CUSTOM COOKBOOK STUDIO

There’s a book
in your kitchen.

Start with a stack of recipe cards or a chef’s notebook. We help bring it all together.

MEET THE PERSON BEHIND THE PAGES

Hi, I’m Trae.

I’m based in Charleston, work alongside chefs, and am the author of Lowcountry Supper. This studio brings those two things together: helping other cooks share their food, while making a place for my own recipes, too.

A good place to start? Your favorite recipe.

— Chef Trae

A FEW THINGS TO KNOW

Before we
open the notebook.

Can you publish my cookbook for me?

We can help organize recipes, design the book, prepare publishing files, and guide publication. A chef can publish through their own account, or discuss a studio publishing arrangement. Before work starts, we agree in writing on permissions, account ownership, costs, sales income, and responsibilities. Publication remains subject to the chosen platform’s requirements.

Can my book be featured here?

Yes. With your approval, your published cookbook can have a listing here with its cover, description, chef credit, and a link to its purchase page. A listing does not transfer ownership of your work.

Will you change my recipes?

Your recipes stay yours. We help with organization, clarity, and consistent formatting. You confirm quantities, cooking instructions, yields, and recipe testing, and approve the finished book.

Do you make family cookbooks too?

Absolutely. We can bring recipes, family photos, and short memories together in a personalized PDF. Private family books do not need to be published or listed in our collection.

How much does it cost?

Projects are quoted individually based on recipe count, editing, photographs, design, and publishing needs. We agree on the work and price before production starts. Printing, platform fees, and any sales-income arrangement are discussed separately.

LET’S MAKE SOMETHING PERSONAL

What’s your
cookbook story?

Tell us a little about your idea. No polished manuscript needed, and no commitment to order.
