Culinary masterpiece, “Make Your Own Party” by Chef Kelli Lewton, marks its first year anniversary with an extra dash of spice — a coveted Silver Medal in the Cookbooks Category from the Independent Publisher Book Awards (IPPY).
Launched just a year ago, this innovative cookbook was Lewton’s answer to modern party hosts seeking contemporary, accessible entertaining ideas. It packed in twenty unique blueprints for life’s special occasions, with everything from tantalizing menus to innovative décor suggestions and creative tablescaping tips. It’s no wonder the book has quickly become a must-have item in kitchens across the country.
Over the past year, the book has garnered not just attention, but praise from readers and critics alike, featuring in numerous publications and media outlets like Women’s World, Yahoo! News, and Fox 2 Detroit. The IPPY Award is just the latest feather in the cap for Lewton and her culinary brainchild.
“We aimed to make ‘Make Your Own Party’ not just a cookbook, but a guide to creating unforgettable moments,” said Lewton. “The Silver Medal from the IPPY Awards is like the perfect cherry topping on our anniversary cake, affirming that we’ve truly made an impact.”
But the cookbook goes beyond just creative party planning. It’s also a tool for community building. A portion of the proceeds from book sales is funneled into the Detroit Food Academy, a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization that champions youth empowerment through culinary arts and leadership programs. Buyers of the cookbook don’t just gain an incredible resource for their parties, they contribute to the community and help usher in the next generation of culinary enthusiasts.
