In our last episode of 2023, Kate, Kristin and Molly discuss food trends and how they apply to the cookbook world. Whether it's butter boards, nacho tables, "girl dinner" or baked potato bars these stunt foods can loom large yet die quickly in the public consciousness. They discuss ideas on identifying trends, how to capitalize on them and the importance of keeping a variety of demographics in mind when working on "trendy" topics. Finally, we list some things we're looking forward to in 2024. Hosts: Kate Leahy + Molly Stevens + Kristin Donnelly + Andrea NguyenEditor: Abby Cerquitella MentionsKristin Donnelly's Cookbook Proposal Class  Visit the Everything Cookbooks Bookshop to purchase a copy of the books mentioned in the showBeautiful Boards by Maegan BrownEveryday Snack Board by Largeman-Roth Rdn FrancesKoreatown by Deuki Hong and Matt Rodbard
