Have a Question?
If you don't find the answer you're looking for here, feel free to reach out to our Support Team or contact us - we're happy to help.
Tasteful Memories is a guided cookbook platform that helps you preserve your family's most cherished recipes - and the stories behind them. With thoughtfully designed weekly questions organized into 8 themed chapters, you'll build a custom, hardcover cookbook that's as meaningful as the meals themselves.
The chapters are designed to help you create a memorable cookbook, with guided questions that encourage reflection, organization, and natural writing. The questions build on each other, ensuring your cookbook flows smoothly.
All of our questions are food-focused and memory-driven. You'll be asked things like:
- “If your family had one recipe everyone fought over at gatherings, what was it?”
- “What's the first thing you learned to cook - and how did it go?”
- “If you had to cook a meal that feels like 'home,' what would be on the table?”
They're crafted to help you uncover the meals that matter most - and the stories that make them special.
Yes! You're completely in control. Answer as many or as few questions as you like, in any order. Skip what doesn't apply and come back to anything later - there's no pressure.
