What's New?

🌐 Bringing our community into the Shopify world

Shopify's rapidly growing Shop app is about to begin rolling out Minis—fun, interactive "mini apps" to be used by Shop's hundreds of millions of shoppers—and we've been invited to their early access program.

As of today, the FoodSocial Recipe Mini has been approved (thanks to the fantastic effort of our developer Alex) and v1 will go live shortly.

What does this mean for our community?

To start, more eyes on our recipes/products, more creative campaigns, and more opportunities to monetize.

Our Mini will be part of an early soft rollout, with lots of details still being determined—we'll be sharing more information over the coming months.

🥧 Fall baking campaign heats up

We're jumping right into our next campaign: Bake It 'Til You Make It!

This time with four sponsoring brands: Mixed Up Foods, Lark Ellen Farm, Maïzly, and Primal Palate.

Creators — sign up before Oct 10 to join in on the fun.
