Ordering & Pricing

Whether you're just curious what a printed cookbook costs before you start, or you've finished building and you're ready to print, this guide has you covered — pricing, shipping, checkout, and how to use a coupon or gift voucher.

Top 5 questions people ask

How much does a cookbook cost?

$40 for a single copy with up to 20 recipes. Buying more than one copy automatically lowers the price per copy. (Full pricing table in Know your pricing before you order.)

How many pages/recipes are included in each cookbook when I purchase a bundle?

Every copy includes up to 20 recipes (2–4 pages each) — extra recipes are $1 each, no matter how many copies you order. (Details in Know your pricing before you order.)

Is shipping included in the price, and do you ship outside the U.S.?

Shipping is separate and priced by speed and quantity — currently Vinst ships to U.S. addresses only. (See the shipping table in Order & print your cookbook.)

How can I get a coupon, and how do I apply it?

Purchase a discounted pack on vinst.me and you'll get a coupon code by email — apply it at checkout on any cookbook, new or already in progress. (Details in Using a coupon or gift voucher.)

If I want to gift the cookbook to someone else to design, how does that work?

Buy a pack, then share your coupon code with them — they design their own cookbook and redeem it at their own checkout. (Details in Using a coupon or gift voucher.)

Know your pricing before you order

Vinst cookbooks are full-color with a premium hardcover. Here's how pricing works:

Single copy: $40, including 20 recipes (each recipe runs 2–4 pages).

Buying more than one copy? Bundle pricing kicks in automatically:

CopiesPrice per copy
1$40
3$33
5$30
10$28
20$25

Going over 20 recipes? Each additional recipe is +$1.

Long recipes? The first 4 pages of a recipe are included at no extra cost. Beyond that, every 2 extra pages adds $0.50 (e.g. a 6-page recipe adds $0.50 total, an 8-page recipe adds $1.00, and so on).

Adding a dedication page? That's an extra $1.00, on top of the above.

📌 Planning a big cookbook? These costs add up per copy — a 150-recipe book ordered as 10 copies will cost noticeably more than the base price, since both the extra-recipe fee and the per-copy price multiply. If you're building a large collection, it's worth checking your total in the cart before committing to a big bundle.

📌 As a rough guide, cookbooks can run up to around 380 pages (roughly 90–160 recipes, depending on length) — check with our support team if you're planning something on the larger side.

Always double-check vinst.me for current discounted pricing before you order.


Order & print your cookbook

When you're ready, open your cookbook and click "Print Cookbook."

📱 On mobile: look for Print Cookbook in a bar fixed to the bottom of the editor (it floats in the bottom corner on desktop).

Before checkout, Vinst runs a couple of quick checks:

  • If your book has fewer than 6 recipes, you'll get a friendly nudge to confirm that's really what you want.
  • If any recipes are missing photos, you'll be reminded — cookbooks tend to look their best with a photo on every page, but it's not required.
  • You'll need a verified email address to place an order — if you haven't verified yours yet, you'll be prompted to do so first.

Checkout has four quick steps:

  1. Cart — choose how many copies you'd like and apply a coupon code if you have one.

  2. Shipping — enter your name, address, and phone number. (Currently, Vinst ships to U.S. addresses only.)

  3. Delivery — pick a shipping speed:

    MethodDelivery time1 copy2–5 copies6–10 copies
    Economy~12 business days$6.99$7.99$8.99
    Standard~10 business days$12.99$14.49$15.99
    Express~7 business days$24.99$26.49$27.99
    Priority~6 business days$35.49$36.99$38.49
  4. Payment — enter your payment details and click "Place Order."

📱 On mobile: your order summary appears below each step instead of in a side column, and the button to continue is pinned to the bottom of the screen.

Using a coupon or gift voucher

Bought a discounted pack, or been gifted one? Here's how it works:

  • After purchase, you'll receive an email with a coupon code.
  • Apply it at checkout when your cookbook is ready to print.
  • Gifting it to someone else? Just share the code — they can design their own cookbook from scratch and redeem it at their own checkout.
  • Already partway through a cookbook? No problem — sign in, open your existing cookbook, click Print Cookbook, and enter your coupon code on the checkout page.
