Last week I finally completed the Amazon.com Kindle-reader version of our Gluten-Free & Wheat-Free Gourmet Desserts Recipe book and have it published on Amazon's Kindle eBook store. Until now, we have had the full-color printed book for sale only on our own website (Gluten-Free-Desserts.com), but we decided to join the electronic-publishing crowd since devices like the iPad, Kindle Reader, and others have been gaining popularity and momentum. We were receiving more and more inquiries about whether we offered a Kindle/eBook version, and now we can finally say "yes".
Kindle Books can be Viewed on (as of Jan-2011)...
- Kindle Devices (i.e., dedicated reader device) - see page for details and various models (WiFi, WiFi+3G, etc).
- Kindle for Mac (FREE Reader Software)
- Kindle for PC (FREE Reader Software)
- Kindle for iPad/iPhone (FREE Reader Software)
- Kindle for BlackBerry (FREE Reader Software)
- Kindle for Android (FREE Reader Software)
Gluten-Free Recipes book for Kindle Reader Device/Software
So, if you are one of those people that have been waiting for the electronic version of our Gluten-Free Desserts book, thank you for the patience and we hope you enjoy the eBook. I personally like having the printed book with me when baking my desserts, but there are times it would be nice to just carry all my favorite recipes with me along with my other business documents and various books; and, with the little Kindle reader device and our new E-book, I can do just that.
Even though (as of this writing) the Kindle Reader hardware devices are gray-scale display devices, we published the Kindle version of our book in the same full-color format with beautiful pictures of each and every finished gluten-free recipe... it is the same content as the physical printed edition, but available as an "E-Book". I purchased the latest version of the Kindle for testing the book on, and the pictures look very good in the multi-toned high-resolution gray-scale native to the device. Because we published in full-color, viewing the eBook with a color-capable book-reader/viewer (like Amazon Kindle for PC or Kindle for Mac or an iPad Kindle-capable reader) software will be visually just like leafing through our printed version.

I still have to get working on our next book (which will definitely be electronic-only), but having the experience of publishing our primary gluten-free recipe book to the Kindle will definitely make that work easier. I must say, I am looking forward to no longer having to inventory many TONS of books at my location!
The End of Printed Books nears...
As I have hinted on this blog before, the current batch of physical-inventory (i.e., *printed* GF Desserts books) is probably going to be the last batch we print now that we have the eBook on the market. We reduced the price considerably to help clear out the last of them... so, if you prefer hard-copy recipe books when working in the kitchen, get a copy before they go the way of the dinosaur :)
