Regeneration & Style Changes
Learn about your options for regenerating recipes and changing styles.
Regeneration & Style Changes
Each purchased recipe includes multiple generations to ensure you're happy with the result.
Your 5 Generations
Every recipe credit includes 5 total generations:
| Type | Count | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| Initial Generation | 1 | Your first design |
| Text Edit Regenerations | 3 | Fix typos, adjust ingredients or instructions |
| Style Change | 1 | Try a completely different artistic style |
All regenerations are free and included with your purchase.
Text Edit Regenerations
Use these when you need to fix the text content:
When to Use
- Typos - Fix spelling mistakes in ingredients or instructions
- Missing items - Add an ingredient that was left out
- Corrections - Adjust amounts or measurements
- Clarifications - Reword confusing instructions
How It Works
- Go to your recipe's review page
- Click "Edit Recipe"
- Make your text changes
- Click "Regenerate"
- Wait for new design (1-2 minutes)
What to Know
- The same style is used
- Layout may shift slightly to accommodate changes
- You have 3 text edit regenerations available
Style or Format Change
Use this when you want a completely different look or aspect ratio:
When to Use
- The style doesn't match your vision
- You want to see how another style looks
- The current style doesn't suit your recipe type
- You need a different aspect ratio (e.g., portrait instead of landscape)
- You want to print at a different size
How It Works
- Go to your recipe's review page
- Click "Try a Different Style or Format"
- Select a different style, format, or both
- Click the regenerate button
- Wait for new design (1-2 minutes)
What You Can Change
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
| Style only | Keep the same format, try a new artistic style |
| Format only | Keep the same style, change aspect ratio (e.g., 16:9 → 3:4) |
| Both | Change both style and format at the same time |
Important
- One-time only - You get exactly 1 style/format change per recipe
- At least one change required - You must select a different style OR format
- Choose carefully - Review all 8 styles and formats before deciding

Tips for Best Results
Before Regenerating
- Review your recipe text carefully
- Check all ingredients are correct
- Verify instruction steps are complete
- Consider if it's a text issue or style issue
Choosing to Regenerate
- Text problem? Use a text edit regeneration
- Don't like the look? Consider your style change
- Minor layout issue? Sometimes regenerating with the same text produces a better layout
Style & Format Change Strategy
Since you only get one free change:
- Browse all 8 available styles first
- Review all output formats
- Read about which recipes work best with each style
- Consider your recipe type (baked goods, savory, cultural, etc.)
- Think about how you'll use it (print size, digital display, etc.)
- Make an informed choice
What Regeneration Can't Fix
Some issues require adjusting your recipe before regenerating:
- Recipe is too long - Simplify ingredients or instructions
- Complex formatting - Break into simpler steps
- Special characters - Remove unusual symbols
