Updated by Felister Moraa: Are you bored with the food in the sims 4? Here are the absolute best sims 4 custom food recipes you should add to your cc folder in 2025!

Want to save this list? Click here to pin it!

There are some TALENTED food cc creators for the sims 4. While researching for this post, I was so impressed looking through all of the incredible custom recipes that I actually got hungry and had to order food. 😂

Majority of these look WAY better than the food created by EA for the game (no shade, it’s just truth.) You’ll see the same creator names over and over again throughout this list because there are only a few cc creators that specialize in sims 4 custom food. With that being said, PLEASE support their patreons if you are able. They do so much for our gaming community.

This updated 2025 list brings together realistic cultural dishes, bakery items, refreshing drinks, and functional appliances to your game. Each recipe is Maxis Match–friendly and designed to blend naturally into everyday gameplay.

You’ll find a mixture of custom homestyle recipes (regular), gourmet recipes, and baking recipes. These are not food decor or food clutter, these are actual custom recipes that your sims can make when they reach a certain cooking skill level and eat.

For food clutter, check out my latest post on Best Sims 4 Food Clutter CC.

Anyways, without further ado, here’s the best Sims 4 custom food.

What You Need for Sims 4 Custom Food Recipes

Before downloading any custom meals, make sure your game is set up to support recipe mods. Most creators use similar requirements, so once you have these basics in place, everything should work smoothly.

Here’s what you’ll need:

• Enable Custom Content & Script Mods
  Go to Game Options > Other and turn on both “Enable Custom Content” and “Script Mods Allowed.” Restart the game afterward.
• Install XML Injector
  Many food creators rely on XML Injector to add new cooking interactions. Place the file directly inside your Mods folder.
• Use the Latest Version of Each Recipe Mod
  Food creators regularly update their packs after patches, so always download the newest version.
• Have a Supported Food Framework or Cookbook
  Some recipes require specific cooking systems to appear in your game. Common options include:
  • The S&S Cookbook (acts as an in-game menu for CC recipes)
  • Realistic Cooking Mod (RCM) (expands categories, ingredients, and recipe behavior)
    If a creator requires one of these, they’ll list it on their download page, so read the installation instructions carefully.
• Add Any Required Functional Appliances
  Certain dishes need appliances like blenders, drink machines, or pressure cookers. These are usually included in the download.
• Organize Files Correctly
  Keep your recipe packages no more than one folder deep inside the Mods directory to prevent loading issues.

Once these are set, you’re ready to start adding custom meals, drinks, and desserts to your game. Let me know when you want to begin the recipe list.

Best Sims 4 Custom Food Recipes for 2025

I’ve broken down the Sims 4 custom food recipes into the following categories:

1. Cultural & World Cuisine
2. Desserts and Bakes
3. Drinks & Snacks

Cultural & World Cuisine

Mandu (Korean Dumplings) by Oni

Mandu is a Korean dumpling recipe available in both meat-filled and kimchi-filled versions. The dumplings are plump, neatly folded, and presented in a Maxis Match–friendly style that fits seamlessly into everyday kitchens.

Sims prepare the dish by chopping vegetables, mixing dough, and steaming the dumplings on the stove. The recipe comes in 1, 4, and 8 servings, supports group cooking, and requires Oni’s latest Recipe Pack Mod to function. This warm, comforting meal is an excellent addition for players who enjoy cultural meals and detailed family gameplay.

Jamaican Black Cake

For those with a sweet tooth, this custom food recipe is a must-have. The Jamaican Black Cake is a traditional Caribbean dessert made with rum-soaked fruits and a caramelized sugar base, giving it a deep color and rich flavor. Oni’s version captures the glossy, dense texture of the cake with a Maxis Match look.

The full-sized cake serves eight, so use it for holidays and family gatherings. The recipe is vegetarian-friendly, lactose-free, and compatible with the Simple Living lot challenge. You need Oni’s latest Recipe Pack Mod, which is linked in the post’s description.

Created by Somik_Severinka, Soul Food is a Sims 4 custom food recipe originating from African American cuisine. This collection adds three ethnic dishes to your Sim’s kitchens:

Your Sim cooks the meals using homestyle interactions at Level 2–3. Each recipe serves eight, is suitable for restaurants, and supports optional ingredients depending on whether you use the S&S Cookbook, SCCO, or the Realistic Cooking Mod.

Sims prepare the dough at the counter before either sliding the tray into the oven or frying the pastries on the stovetop. This gives you two distinct cooking animations.

Jerk Chicken

Another Caribbean classic to add to your recipe collection is Jerk Chicken. This bold, spicy dish features rich seasoning, smoky char marks, and bright lime garnishes that stand out beautifully in Maxis Match kitchens.

FAQ — Sims 4 Custom Food Recipes (2025)

1. Do custom food recipes still work in 2025?

Yes. Most actively maintained food mods and recipes work with the latest 2025 patch, especially those updated after major bug-fix and expansion updates. Always download the creator’s newest version to avoid broken interactions.

2. Why aren’t my custom recipes showing up in the cook menu?

This usually happens when one of the requirements is missing. Check that you have:

• Script Mods enabled
• XML Injector installed
• The required cookbook or food framework (S&S Cookbook, RCM)
• The correct functional appliance, if needed
• The files placed only one folder deep in Mods

3. Do I need the S&S Cookbook or Realistic Cooking Mod for every recipe?

No. Many creators make standalone meals, but others require the S&S Cookbook or RCM for the dish to appear in the cooking menu. The download page will always indicate which one is required.

4. Are custom food recipes Maxis Match?

Most modern food creators design their textures to blend into Maxis Match kitchens. However, a few lean slightly more realistic, but all the recipes in this list fit the 2025 MM aesthetic.

5. Will custom food mods slow down my game?

Not significantly. Food recipes are lightweight files. Issues only arise if your Mods folder is extremely large or disorganized. So, keep your files tidy and updated to prevent lag and missing thumbnails.

6. Do custom food recipes require ingredients?

It depends on the creator. Some meals require ingredients from gardening, cottage living, or custom harvestables, while others can be cooked freely with no ingredient requirements.

7. Can kids and teens cook custom recipes?

Yes, but only if the original game allows the particular age group to cook the base version of the dish. Teens can cook almost everything, and children may be limited unless the creator adds a special interaction.

8. Are these recipes safe after patches?

Food mods often break when EA updates the cooking system, fridge categories, or interaction tuning. If a recipe stops appearing, wait for an update from the creator, as the issue is usually patch-related, not your setup.

9. Do these recipes work with Base Game only?

Many do. Some require packs that include specific cooking interactions or appliances (e.g., Cottage Living ingredients or City Living food stalls). Creators usually list pack requirements clearly.

10. How do I remove a broken recipe safely?

Just delete the package file from your Mods folder. The game will remove the recipe from the menu automatically on the next load. If the meal was in a Sim’s fridge, it will simply disappear.

11. What’s the difference between custom food recipes and food CC clutter?

Food CC clutter is decorative only. Custom food recipes are functional meals your Sims can prepare, eat, and serve. This post focuses only on functional recipes.

12. Can I use more than one food mod framework at the same time?

Yes. The S&S Cookbook and the Realistic Cooking Mod work alongside most recipe packs. Just avoid having multiple versions of the same cookbook or outdated files.
