Hello! I’m Carol, the lead member of the LuvMyRecipe.com team. Let me tell you a little bit about who we are and how LuvMyRecipe grew from a small idea shared among friends into the digital culinary community you see today.
The “Trial and Error” Approach
When it comes to cooking, I’ve always taken a “trial and error” approach. Sometimes, I would tweak a recipe for years, adjusting ingredients here, adding some cooking time there, until I arrived at a final version that I absolutely loved.
Whenever I finally perfected a dish, I naturally wanted to share it with family and friends so they could enjoy it too. So, I set up a simple website. But it didn’t take long before I started thinking: wouldn’t it be great if everyone had a place to share the recipes they’ve spent years perfecting?
I wasn’t just imagining a standard recipe blog. I was imagining a place where people could carve out their own culinary corner of the internet, share their unique cooking styles, and connect with others who love the exact same cuisines. That is how LuvMyRecipe.com was born!
A Community Built by Friends
This project started simply with a few friends who wanted an easy way to share recipes with one another without dealing with the heavy tech of building a personal blog or fighting the restrictive templates of giant social media networks.
There is certainly a place for Pinterest, Instagram, and Facebook, but we were looking for a platform where a person’s true personality and cooking style could shine through. We wanted a user-friendly community where members could design their own digital culinary home, link to their other social accounts, and share their creations with the world—all without needing a degree in web design.
The Legend of Auntie Bea’s Biscuits
To understand our mission, let’s talk about “Auntie Bea’s Biscuits.” We all know you can go to a hundred different websites to find a run-of-the-mill biscuit recipe copied off the side of a flour bag.
But anyone who knows biscuits knows that Auntie Bea’s are different. She has tested, tweaked, and honed that recipe to perfection over the years. What is her secret ingredient? What is her specific process that makes them so much fluffier than those dense hockey pucks you find elsewhere?
We built LuvMyRecipe so Auntie Bea has a place to share that exact secret with her friends, family, and the rest of the world.
Your Digital Recipe Box
Why shouldn’t Auntie Bea, and you, have a personalized, digital Recipe Box? We created a space where you can keep all your favorite recipes in one place, just like the recipe box on your kitchen counter, but accessible from your phone, tablet, or desktop anywhere in the world.
It’s a place to save your creations, link to your favorite chefs, and catalog the best food you find online.
