UPDATE: Yummly Dishes Up New Features to Make Finding and Sharing Recipes a Snap


REDWOOD CITY, CA--(Marketwire - July 20, 2010) -  Yummly.com, the company that is pioneering semantic food search, announced today that it has added new features for searching and sharing to its intelligent food platform. Users can now send favorite recipes to friends and relatives in just two clicks, thanks to a new easy to use email button that makes sharing culinary finds simple. The email button expands the site's current recipe sharing options, which include integration with Facebook and its own internal social networking community: TasteBuds. Yummly simultaneously revealed that registered users can now receive recipe recommendations -- handpicked for them based on their tastes and preferences -- delivered to their email inboxes each week, and can track popular recipes within the Yummly community with new search functions in the FoodFinder.

The new additions come hot on the heels of Yummly's June 22nd launch and are designed to enhance its feature-rich recipe search platform that delivers a simplified intuitive recipe search, and a vastly improved user experience for cooking enthusiasts around the globe.

Yummly's New Features Include:

  • Share Recipes via Email: Easy-to-use email button makes sharing recipes with friends and family easy for anyone.
  • Culinary Inspiration Delivered Right to Your Inbox: Registered users can now receive customized weekly e-newsletters with delicious recipe recommendations tailored specifically to their tastes.
  • What's Hot and What's Not: New recipe trending search feature allows users to discover what recipes are most popular on Yummly or highly rated by other users.

"Since our launch, we have received an overwhelmingly positive response from our rapidly expanding user base, along with excellent feedback," said David Feller, CEO of Yummly. "We are pleased to deliver this latest round of features to further simplify and enhance our users' experience of finding and sharing recipes. We will continue to chart an aggressive product roadmap and look forward to further enriching our platform's feature set in the coming months."
