About this product

Elegant 4x6 recipe cards in a quiet design that lets the handwriting be the point. The set of 50 comes in champagne ivory, dusty rose, French blue or sage green, with a lined front for the recipe name, ingredients and directions and a lined back for the rest. Printed on heavy card stock that takes fountain, gel and ballpoint pens without bleeding. The lines are spaced for handwriting, not for printer fonts, and the foil heading catches the light without shouting.

For the lasagna your mother-in-law finally wrote down. The bourbon glaze you keep meaning to remember. The bridal shower where you ask twenty women for one card each, and end up with the start of a cookbook.

Why 4x6 recipe cards

Four by six is the size most recipe boxes, dividers, protectors and binders are made for, so a 4x6 recipe card fits what you already own and anything you add later. It holds a full recipe on the front, with the back lined for long methods, notes and the name of the person who taught it to you. A 3 x 5 card holds about half as much, and a 5 x 7 card will not fit a standard box.

The four colors are there to be used. Some cooks keep one color per course: sage for vegetables, French blue for fish, dusty rose for baking. Others give each person in the family a color, or keep champagne ivory for everyday and the Multi Color Mix for a bridal shower, where every guest fills in one card.

The cards fit any recipe box and our white 4x6 envelopes. For the cards that live beside the stove, clear 4x6 recipe card protectors keep them clean. Part of the Elegant collection with the weekly meal planner and grocery list notepads, or all four pieces together in the Elegant Kitchen Set.

FAQs

Will these 4x6 recipe cards fit my recipe box?
Yes. 4 x 6 inches is the standard recipe card size, so the Elegant cards fit standard recipe boxes, dividers, binders, clear 4x6 protectors and 4x6 envelopes.
What is the standard recipe card size?
4 x 6 inches is the most common size and the one most recipe boxes and dividers are built for. 3 x 5 cards exist but hold about half as much, and 5 x 7 cards do not fit a standard box.
How many recipes fit on one card?
One recipe per card, with the back lined for long methods. Most home recipes fit on the front with a few lines on the back.
Which pens work best?
Any pen. The stock is uncoated, so fountain and gel ink dry quickly without feathering.
Do these match the other Elegant products?
Yes. The color palette matches the Elegant grocery list notepad, meal planner notepad and kitchen conversion magnet, which is how most customers buy them.
