Build recipe cards in WordPress

Recipe Card Blocks PRO helps food bloggers publish recipe content with the block editor or Elementor. Recipe cards can include ingredients, directions, and nutrition facts. The wider plugin supports AMP and recipe-focused components.

Recipe blocks work with the new block editor. If they are missing, check whether the Classic Editor add-on has disabled it. The plugin also supports Gutenberg, Elementor, AMP, WPML, recipe shortcodes, and any theme.

Help users browse and choose recipes

The Recipe Index Block makes a searchable catalog for visitors exploring a recipe library. Recipe Roundups let you curate collections around a theme, such as seasonal menus, baking selections, or a particular ingredient. Ratings Analytics reports rating distribution, activity over time, and top-rated recipes.

Give readers recipe controls and ways to respond

Adjustable Servings scales ingredient quantities in real time. Unit Conversion lets readers switch between US and metric measurements with one click. With the Rating Modal and Written Reviews feature, readers can leave a written review alongside a rating.

The Equipment Block includes a dedicated place to list utilities for a dish. An Image Gallery and Lightbox in Directions can add visual guidance to recipe steps.

Support submissions and sharing

Recipe Submissions lets visitors submit recipes. WooCommerce Integration connects recipe content with WooCommerce, while the Grow.me Save Recipe Button gives visitors another way to save recipes. Social calls to action can direct readers to Facebook, Instagram, and Pinterest. Advanced Pinterest Settings let you control the custom Pin picture and description.

Food Labels add recipe presentation details. Print Preview lets you tailor credit text for printed copies.

Choose a card style

The PRO edition includes five recipe card styles, compared with three in the free version. Choose from four color schemes or set unlimited custom colors to match a blog's visual style.

Structured data and other details

The plugin provides Schema.org structured data in JSON-LD and an inline structured data validator. It is described as GDPR-compliant, does not integrate Google Fonts, and does not collect information outside the WordPress installation.

Set up recipe blocks

Install the plugin in WordPress and open the block editor or Elementor. Add a recipe card, then enter its details, ingredients, directions, and nutrition information. Add equipment or media as needed. Use the PRO options to configure card styles and colors, indexes, roundups, reviews, submissions, serving adjustments, and unit conversion.
