Two French products, two objects

Cloch is often a 22 × 30.5 cm hardcover, sewn, printed in France. The flow leans on the app (Instagram, TikTok, URLs) and a mix of Cloch collection recipes plus your own.

Kulinia is a visual book editor: cover and pages match the finished 19 × 25 cm paperback (32 or 48 pages). The focus is recipe layout and photo import of paper cards, not assembling a publisher catalog.

Compose vs assemble

Cloch handles much of the layout once recipes are chosen. Fast if you want a beautiful object without tuning every spread.

Kulinia lets you edit every page. More work, more control if family recipes must stay faithful to the manuscript.

Price and format

Cloch lists prices from about €36 depending on format. Large hardcover and French manufacturing explain part of the coffee-table positioning.

Kulinia: editor €0, print €48 (32 pages) or €56 (48 pages), all-in. A more compact paperback meant to stay open in the kitchen.

When to prefer Cloch

Choose Cloch for a large French hardcover, brand recipes plus yours, and a mostly mobile / catalog flow. Strong as a gift object, weaker if you must transcribe 40 grandmother cards word for word.

Limits of Kulinia

Kulinia does not print a 22 × 30.5 cm hardcover, has no author recipe catalog, and uses a POD partner rather than a Paris workshop. If atelier-made-in-France object is criterion number one, Cloch is a better fit.

Frequently asked questions

Can I create a cookbook with Canva?

Yes, page by page, but without recipe structure, without handwritten-card import, and with more work for a consistent book. Kulinia is built for that use case.

Is Kulinia a photo album like Photobox?

No. Photobox is strong for photo memories. Kulinia structures ingredients and steps for a cookbook, with photo import of paper recipes.

How much is a printed Kulinia book?

€48 (32 pages) or €56 (48 pages), fixed prices, premium finishes included. The editor is free.

What is the difference between Kulinia and Cloch?

Cloch is a French hardcover cookbook, often larger, mixing catalog recipes and yours. Kulinia is a page-by-page visual editor and a 19 × 25 cm paperback at €48 or €56.

Kulinia fits if you want to build the book yourself, keep your recipes (including handwritten), and print a paperback at a known price. Cloch fits if you want a large French hardcover with some Cloch recipes in the mix.
