Recipes from friends and family members represent so much more than the ingredients and steps of any given dish; they are like little souvenirs of experiences with loved ones, and using them is a way to pay tribute and keep special memories alive. But these days, the warm, personal touch of old-fashioned recipe sharing is often replaced by a sterile statement of convenience, such as: “I improvised off of a recipe I found on the internet; I’ll send you the link.”
With the help of Spark, it’s easy to embrace the convenience of sharing a recipe digitally while still making it personal, special, and worth sharing. Today we’ll look at a handful of creative ways to showcase and share your recipes, from easily customizable templates in Spark Post to more detailed examples in Page and Video. Let the culinary inspiration wash over you, then get cooking and sharing!
Create Modern Recipe Cards with Spark Post
The beauty of recipe cards made in Adobe Spark is their versatility. Customize them with mouth-watering photos of your finished dish, and select colors that evoke the season or emphasize your key ingredients. One-tap resize makes it easy to share the creations on social media, or, for old-time’s-sake, print them out for a few lucky recipients to treasure. These beautiful recipe cards are the gift that keep on giving.
Feed the Newsfeed with Video
Some of the most popular content on social media are cooking videos and tutorials. Get a slice of the engagement pie with the help of Spark Video! We love how blogger and home chef extraordinaire Julie Tran Deily of The Little Kitchen shares insights into her kitchen with video on social media. Using text on screen, video clips, and photos, she breaks down her how-tos into bite-size pieces and then links to more in-depth tutorials on her blog.
