Can you copyright a recipe?
Two Australian cookbook authors are clashing over claims of plagiarised recipes.
Nagi Maehashi, who runs the popular food blog RecipeTin Eats, says influencer Brooke Bellamy's new cookbook ‘Bake with Brooki’ contains uncannily similar ingredients, quantities, and instructions for a caramel slice and baklava.
Food writer and cookbook Author Allyson Gofton told Kerre Woodham that since baking doesn’t differ that much on a basic level, where copyright would come into the argument would be in the method and how it’s written.
She says that unless the text is copied word for word, it would be very hard to prove, especially for classics like baklava.
