Founder of The Cookbook Lab, Cookbook Author and Food Blogger

HEY THERE

I’m a food blogger, cookbook author, and former marketing director from Portland, Oregon.

I'M CHELSEA

I self published my first cookbook Everyday Sous Vide: it's all French to me in 2018.

At the time I had no idea how much self-publishing a cookbook would grow my business. Since publishing my first cookbook I’ve signed on with a major ad network, left my full-time job, done dozens of live TV appearances, podcast interviews, judged cooking contests, booked larger brand deals, self-published my second cookbook and so much more.

But figuring out all the steps to actually get my book out into the world was extremely confusing which is why I created The Cookbook Lab to help other foodies have a step by step system (and a ton of support) to self publish their own cookbook.

I bought The Cookbook Lab a little over a year ago and today I published my cookbook. I just wanted to say thank you for the fantastic course!!

I really could not have done it without your expertise. I had so many questions throughout the process and somehow the answer was always already in the course."

The Cookbook Lab is the ideal resource for those looking to self publish.

After such a headache and endless hours of cookbook research, I was so glad I finally found this! It went through every question I've had about the logistics of making a cookbook a reality.
