I got tired of recipe card tools requiring sign-ups, adding watermarks, or locking templates behind paywalls. So I built my own.
Free Recipe Card Maker — no signup, no watermark
What it does
- 4 templates: Classic, Modern, Minimal, Rustic
- 6 color themes: cream, white, blush, sky, mint, warm
- Live preview: type on the left, see the card update on the right
- PDF + PNG export: print-ready or digital sharing
- Mobile-friendly: works great on phones too
Tech stack
Pure vanilla — HTML, CSS, JavaScript. No framework, no build step. html2canvas + jsPDF handle the exports.
Why I built it
Every recipe card tool I tried either forced sign-up before download, watermarked free exports, or paywalled most templates. I wanted zero friction: land → type → download.
What is next
Planning to add more templates (vintage, holiday themes), recipe URL import, and nutrition facts. Would love feedback from the community!
