Why Word of Mouth

Some recipes are too good to give away.

Too good

Your food is too good to give the secret recipe away.

Every time someone asks, you hand it over for free. Put it on Word of Mouth, let home cooks rate it, then sell your best recipes through your own Gumroad. Word of Mouth only takes 10% when one sells.

Secret
Too busy

Your life is too full to give it all up and open a food truck or a restaurant.

No lease, no van, no 5 a.m. starts. Sell your recipes online and keep the life you already have.

Keep the day job
Too precious

Grandma didn't pass on the jewels. She passed on a cake recipe worth gold.

Family recipes deserve better than a stained index card. Show it, sell it, and keep her name on it.

Priceless. Now priced.

Two ways in

Cook it. Sell it. Pass it on.

How recipes earn trust

Recipes rise because people cook them.

Word of Mouth ranks recipes by what happens in real kitchens, not by follower counts. Every WOM score comes from people who actually made the dish.

Shared

Cooks share a free recipe first to show what they can do.

Cooked

They make it and score it from 1 to 10 WOMs.

Bought

Vetted cooks sell their best recipes, unlocked in a protected kitchen view.

Passed on

They send it to someone they cook for.

Recipe protection

Show it without giving it away.

A paid recipe never sits on the public page. Buyers read it in a protected kitchen view stamped with their name, so a leaked copy always points back to where it came from.

  • Paid pages show a previewQuantities, the full method and your tips stay hidden until someone buys.
  • Every buyer is stampedA moving watermark with their name and order number.
  • Hard to copy, easy to cookCopy, right click and print are off. The view pauses when the reader looks away.

You don't need followers. Make something worth passing on.

Secure checkout

Paid recipes are bought on the cook's own Gumroad, which takes the payment and handles the tax. Word of Mouth never sees your card.

Creators keep ownership

Your recipe stays yours. We host and show it so you can sell it.

Only vetted cooks sell

Paid recipes come from cooks with at least 10 good WOM scores from real home cooks, so you buy proven recipes.

No monthly fee

Sharing recipes is free. When a paid recipe sells, Word of Mouth takes 10% of what remains after Gumroad's fee. Nothing else.
