Binding Options for Cookbooks

786 Print Media offers two binding options: plastic coil binding (also known as spiral binding) and perfect binding (which produces a paperback-style book). Oftentimes cookbook authors choose coil binding because it allows the cookbook to lay flat when open — which is really convenient when you’re using it in the kitchen!

Cookbooks Printed in Color or Black and White

We offer full-color printing for the cover and interior pages. You also have the cost-efficient option to print interior pages in a mix of black and white and color pages. Most cookbook printing companies make you print the whole book in color, which can get very costly.

At 786 Print Media, however, you can choose to print only some pages in color — which can save you a lot of money! We print a lot of cookbooks with pictures of food in full color, while pages with only text are in black and white. This is an affordable and flexible option our cookbook authors love.

All book covers are laminated with a gloss laminate that makes the colors nice and bright while protecting the exterior of the book.

Cookbooks are great for Gifts or Fundraising

Church groups, non-profits, Chef’s, and restaurants are often interested in printing their own cookbooks. Custom cookbooks are great for fundraising and also make great gifts. 786 Print Media also prints family cookbooks — an honor for us knowing we’re helping to pass down generational recipes.
