The rise of iPhone Cooking Applications has made cookbook redundant. Additionally, fans of Apple consumer products has spawn a culinary fan cult with a whole range of recipe ideas dedicated to their products ranging from iPhone to MacBooks computers.

Technology has had an enormous impact on our lives, from the way we shop to how we communicate with friends and family. It’s made it simpler than ever to connect with people around the world, and even made collaborative projects and fan funding possible. Technology like the iPhone and Mac have also affected to culinary world. Between mobile apps and the undeniable popularity of iOS and Mac technology, the culinary world is certainly showing signs of the times.

iPhone Apps for Cooking

Perhaps the single most obvious way that technology has changed the world of cooking is in the number of apps for the iPhone for recipes. From Food Network to the mass migration of websites like AsiaFoodRecipe.com , Epicurious and Allrecipes.com to iPhone application format, the iPhone is changing things for the better. Why has this communication platform had such a massive effect on the world of cooking? Why are so many recipe apps now available?

One of the reasons that recipes on the iPhone for cakes and other dishes have become so very popular is that the format is far easier to transport than hardcopy cookbooks. You can pack 30,000 recipes, thousands of videos and innumerable tips for cooking into a single app that fits on your smartphone, where it would have taken an entire library of cookbooks in the past. The ability to use cooking videos is another underlying reason – videos help demonstrate correct cooking techniques, preparation methods and show how the finished dish should look. Some of the best iPhone apps for cooking include:

– AsiaFoodRecipe

– Allrecipes

– Epicurious

– Nigella Quick Collection

– Martha’s Everyday Food

– Rachel Ray’s Tasty Bytes

– BigOven

– Betty Crocker Mobile Cookbook

Several of these are available for the iPhone, iPad and even online via a web browser

Technology Fandom Reigns in the Cooking World

You’ll also find that technology has had another impact on cooking – fan creations abound today. They say that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery and some of the iPhone cakes people are cooking today are pretty flattering! You can see some examples of these iPhone cakes on Google images. Of course, there are also cakes designed to look like the iPhone’s big brother, the iPad. For those who prefer something a bit more Mac-like, there are tons of options, such as this Mac cake.

Don’t think that Apple is the only technology company that fans are paying homage to in food form. Android has some pretty interesting fan food imaginings, like this Android cake, or these Android cupcakes on a stick! One thing’s for sure – tech fans aren’t shy about showing their pride in the devices and brands that they love.

Designer Options Abound

One of the most interesting things about the way that Apple technology has begun to flood our food culture can be found in the number of designers now creating iPhone and Mac cakes. For example, Apple itself commissioned an iPhone cake to commemorate the release of several iPhone models. It’s really more than just a tribute to gadget geek culture – these cakes are showing up everywhere, from birthday parties to corporate events and everything in between. Of course, you don’t have to pay a designer to make you your very own iPhone or Mac cake. There are plenty of iPhone cake recipes out there that include tips on decorating, icing and creating “icons” so you can make your own!
