Blog Post #3 Cooking Up a Storm
One website that I frequent is called 1 Fine cookie. The site is a how to cooking blog with posts averaging around every few weeks. The site is run by Jasmine Fine who blogs about creative and fun cooking ideas. She features a unique blend of humor and wit in her posts, as well as a lot of pop culture references.
1 Fine Cookie is meant to be a teaching website. Jasmine Fine comes up with a recipe or an idea for something and does a step by step tutorial of how you can recreate it. She utilizes images to the fullest on her website, as each step is accompanied by a photograph of how things should be looking so the reader can follow along. The images below are only a few of the thirty plus images used for this particular recipe of Brownie Fudge Cake and Cheesecake Stuffed Strawberry.
As much as it is evident that Jasmine has a great deal of fun posting new recipes and cooking ideas to the site, there is also a monetary gain to be made. Fine utilizes a number of varying methods on her website to make money. Upon searching around the site, I noticed her use of ad space, a shopping store for custom baked goods and kitchen supplies, as well as a sponsorship by Kitchen Aid appliances.

Haha great post! The creative ideas of Jasmine are really interesting especially when when they involve delicious deserts! I like how you mentioned that she really does seem to enjoy making her posts but also linked it to the fact that she clearly has a very powerful sponsor (kithenaid) on her side which is likely paying her a fair bit of money. I believe that many people can and do act fake when they are being influenced by money; however I agree that Jasmine seems to have a real connection with her audience and does indeed enjoy making these posts.
ReplyDeleteAnything goes well with Chocolate haha. Anyways, I've read a few articles about Jasmine and she's really touchy on plagiarism and ideas being stolen from her. But hey I think you've done a great job with this post because you've wrote and made the audience refer and take a look at her own personal post and how she feels about blogging.
