IACP Cookbook Award Winners

This week at the IACP Awards in New York, Jane had the great honor of presenting the Eat Your Books General Cookbook Award to Molly Stevens.  Not only is Molly a wonderful cookbook author, she has been an EYB member and supporter for a long time. We were delighted that she also won the Single Subject Award – she was bemused that her Roasting  book fitted into both categories. 

The other nominations for the EYB Award didn’t go away empty handed – John Besh won in the Family category and Jacques Pépin’s TV show Essential Pépin won best TV series.

Other notable award winners were Christine Manfield’s beautiful book Tasting India, which won both the best Culinary Travel Award and Cookbook of the Year.  Lucio Galletto and David Dales’s The Art of Pasta won both the Photography and Styling Award and picked up the People’s Choice Award.  Impressive as both books are from the Penguin imprint Lantern in Australia, who produce stunning books.

Modernist Cuisine won several awards – the Professional Kitchen Award, the Design Award and the Visionary Achievement Award – Maxime Bilet was there to collect the awards.   We have details of all the Cookbook Award winners.  IACP also recognizes the food writers, stylists and photographers in all media – you can see the winners on the  EYB blog.

It was great to meet so many EYB members at the IACP Culinary Expo.  At the 4 day conference we’ve had very positive feedback from cookbook authors and publishers – they love what we’re doing at Eat Your Books.
