Minecraft's various food items have piqued the interest of fans for quite some time, leaving them to wonder what the sandbox game's foods might be like in the real world. While many players have created their own culinary treats themed around the game, Mojang has announced that it has released a new official cookbook based on the sandbox title known as "The Crafter's Kitchen" on March 19, 2024.

Geared toward "young chefs and their families," The Crafter's Kitchen is aimed at helping players form culinary creations inspired by Minecraft's best in-game food items and also includes recipes that share themes with the game's memorable aesthetic and world. The cookbook is currently available in hardcover and ebook format from a sizable collection of retailers.
