BakeSpace was launched in 2006 as the Web's first food social network and recipe swap. Described by USA Today as "the closest thing to a Facebook-like food site," BakeSpace is a grassroots community for people who love to cook, bake and hang out in the kitchen. The site has been recognized by the Webby Awards for six consecutive years, earning back-to-back nominations in 2009 and 2010 for "Best Social Network." In 2012, the Webbys and the IACP (International Association of Culinary Professionals) also recognized BakeSpace.com's new Cookbook Cafe publishing platform -- the first do-it-yourself digital publishing tool that enables anyone to create, market and sell a cookbook as both a native iPad app and a web-based eBook. BakeSpace.com is based in Los Angeles. More information is available at .
