Submission Guidelines
Entry Form

Cookbooks keep getting better and better in large part because IACP Cookbook Awards entrants have elevated the standards year after year.  We continue to receive exceptional submissions, and it is your participation that has made this awards program the industry’s most recognized measure of cookbook publishing success for more than 20 years. 

New This Year
To reflect the growing significance of our program as well as the broadening scope of submissions, we have introduced three new, exciting categories to the program:  Children, Youth, and Family, Culinary History, and Professional Kitchens.  Also, you may now enter as many categories as you wish (entry fee paid per category), which provides you with the ultimate flexibility when making your submission.  The introduction of an online entry form this year allows for the electronic submission of your form prior to mailing your supplemental materials to IACP Headquarters.

Awards this year will be given to the books judged as the best of the year in 16 categories, with only one selected as the Cookbook of the Year.  Two optional awards, the Jane Grigson Award and the Design Award, may be presented should qualified entrants emerge.

Judging is accomplished through the Cookbook Awards Committee, in two tiers by a jury of three food and beverage professionals for each category. Three finalists and ultimately one winner are chosen from the highest ranked books in each category. 

Publishers and authors are invited to submit entries for the 2010 IACP Cookbook Awards.  Please carefully read the Submission Guidelines for more details.
