Just found this website as I was sifting through all of the recent new spam sites. Feels like finding a diamond among all of the rocks. This site really is quite the discovery. I really like this idea and it would make a good xmas gift for anyone who cooks. My idea is to take all of my mom's recipes that she keeps on index cards and convert them into a book as her present.
I can't even give them a 1 star rating, this is so wrong that they deleted the recipe database. Hours, months and years of working on my recipe books just gone? Does anyone know if a lawsuit has been filed against them?
I was actually doing a search on tastebook to see if they had any new news since they got rid of their publishing piece of personal cookbooks earlier this year and came across this site of complaints about people losing all their recipes. DO YOU EVER CHECK YOUR EMAIL?! I received at least 4-6 emails from Tastebook telling me my recipes were going to be deleted if I didn't download them from their site. I'm pretty sure it was like 6 months or more notice. Their site also had a banner FOR MONTHS telling people to download their personal recipes. This should not have been a shock to anyone. I still am sad and mad at Tastebook for doing this, and I still can't find a cookbook publisher that is anywhere as good with quality and format. In that regard I HATE tastebook for leaving us high and dry. I don't understand how they didn't make enough money from doing the books and how they are making more or enough money by just having some silly blog?!
I did not have any troubles creating my recipes with their software. However, there are a few annoying problems: there is no page number on the page; consequently the table of contents has no reference to page number; there is only one template available where only one picture is allowed per recipe; the cover page is superimposed by an ugly large white square for the book title. If they can fix these problems, I would be happy to create more cookbook from them.
I have ordered several copies of my cookbooks and had always received the cookbooks in time for giving these as gifts for special occassions; but recently, there seems to be a long delay and few reminders later that I receive the cookbooks. I have also noticed some typo errors in the books and feel that my queries submitted to their customer support take a long time to be addressed.
