Our recipes are printed in alphabetical order, and on both the front and back of the recipe pages.
However, if you are ordering recipes only, you can order recipes in separate 'packs' that would allow recipes to be printed individually.
For example, if you have five recipes (all in the dessert section):
Banana Bread
Carrot Cake
Apple Pie
Zucchini Cupcakes
Rice Pudding
You could order these recipes and have them all be in recipe pack #1 (when you click order recipes, you will have the option of which pack to put them in). If they were to be in one pack, they would arrive in alphabetical order, front to back (Banana bread on the back of Apple Pie, followed by carrot cake, rice pudding and zucchini cupcakes). However, if you wanted them to all be on their own sheets, or if you wanted only carrot cake to be on the back of apple pie you could do so by ordering one recipe at a time (put them in different packs (pack #1, #2, #3, etc) If you wanted the carrot cake on the back of apple pie, you would put them in the same 'pack'.
Comments
I can't find how to order packs or single recipes at all. What is the link, please?
Can these pages be added to Tastebooks I already have ?? Will I be able to add them myself ?? I have the hardback editions which already have 100 recipes in them.
I'm with Jodi! I bought several Tastebooks last year, have successfully ordered recipe packs, etc., but since this last update to the site, there is no box to click for the recipes. There is no way to add a recipe to my shopping cart, only create new books. I am a Mac user, and I've tried both Firefox and Safari, but there is just no longer any way to add a la carte recipes since the upgrade.
I have put a lot of work into these books and losing the ability to update them is pretty heartbreaking...
I "accidently" discovered that I can get back to the original Tastebook and get around like I use to, When you log on and see your name (and picture) in the upper right hand corner, click on the down-arrow and select CLASSIC TASTEBOOK. This will take you back to familiar territory. I'm also hoping the beta site either improves dramatically or dies. Until I have more help with the beta, I'm sticking with the original.....PLEASE don't delete the orginal site - I'm with Kimberly - I've put a lot of time and effort in these books and would HATE to have to start over again with something new!
Wow, thank you Jody!
I have been able to order recipe packs now that I can go back to "Classic" Tastebook.
I agree. This is a major glitch with this new site. I have spent 1/2 hour trying to figure out how to order the new recipes I just uploaded, to no avail.
I give up. I have looked everywhere and I can not fine a place to order pages??? How do I order my recipes???
I still have 27 recipes to add to my shopping cart but with this new site, I am not able to order order my recipe pages......pls advise soonest possible how I can do that? My email : cecilia.koh@tnt.com or ceciliakoh@hotmail.sg.
I have put alot of effort in this recipe book and also paid for the 100 recipes already. Pls advise how to proceed to order my remaining recipes.
Pls reply as soon as possible.
Hi,
I tried to check the order recipe but in vain. They only add a new book cost ($39.95) to my shopping cart which I do not need that. I have already paid for a tastebook with 100 recipes and still have yet to finish ordering the balance recipes. I have attached the ordering page for your reference. I just want to continue my balance order of my recipes. Pls help immediately as I really do not want to waste all my effort with such system issue.
Pls reply to me at cecilia.koh@tnt.com urgently.
Hi Jody,
I can't see the classic tastebook. I can only see Account Settings,Help, Feedback, signout....
Can you help me....desperately need help....
Hi All,
If you only want to purchase your new recipe to your existing tastebook (using my own example), go to:
"Cecilia's Favourite Recipes"
"Personal cookbook Options" (at right hand screen below edit collection)
"Purchase recipes separately" (in the middle of screen below <Recipes/Cover/Dedication/Preview>)
Then you will be able to see the purchase recipe box, to add to cart.
I am really happy to find this almost after 3 hrs ...for a while really feel disheartening and frustration with the new site. Not as user friendly as the old site.
I agree with Cecilia and many others...
I have spent the last 3 hours as well ordering "different packs (names)" just to get my recipes to hopefully show up printed how I want them! I've just about had it with these people...not only do they take away our pretty tabs, and not even allow us the option of ordering them if we choose, but they've gone and screwed up a perfectly good website with their so-called "new design", plus they don't even have a PHONE NUMBER to reach them at; everything has to be done via email, and it takes DAYS before they get back to you. The last time this happened to me, I waited 6 days for a response, only to get a response that made no sense and did not answer my initial question! By the time they sent me my tracking number which was all I wanted in the first place, my cookbooks had already arrived!! If anyone out there can refer me to another website with the same ability to design my own cookbook....PLEASE let me know. It's also obvious that Kamran either doesn't read our questions/comments because I see that he has made no effort to answer anyone's questions.
Well Kamron, if you're reading this...you've lost a valued customer who has ordered at least 8 cookbooks in the last year, and countless single printings!
I'm really disappointed in the new site. From the time I started collecting recipes for a friend's bridal shower to when I finished, the site changed, and the recipe packs we wanted to include with the personal recipes don't seem to exist anymore. The site is not user-friendly at all. I had thought this was a great idea for showers, etc., but I won't be doing another one through this site. Not at all impressed.
Ditto on all the above. Very disappointed & not loading any new recipes at this point.
I'm thankful for this community, because I thought I was losing my mind. I can't order recipes and I just spent two hours inputting them. Seeing your posts made me feel better...well, not really since it seems like a lost cause now.
I can't believe I have to do this! Why can't someone on the Tastebook sight make things better and fix the f(*&^(^ing problem.
Here is how you get your recipes sent to you. Under collections on the left side, go to what should be the third row down to (your name) recipes. On the (your name) recipe page, go to the upper right and in blue ink click on "Personal cookbook options". Highlight one of your recipes and then go to the top just above the recipes on the page and click on "Purchase recipes separately" . You should be able to figure out the rest. I don't know the idiots here won't fix this problem.
