Creem product setup: Cookbook Premium Edition

Everything you need to stand up the paid product in Creem. The agent prepared the copy; the dashboard steps are yours (account, payout, upload, publish).

Product

• Name: Solomon’s Guide to Cookin’ with Gas, Premium Edition
• Price: $39 USD, one-time. Free updates.
• Type: Digital product, two files delivered on purchase.
• Store: Escoffier Labs

Delivery files (build them first)

From the repo root, on the cookbook-premium-edition branch:

cd site && npm run build && npm run build:pdf   # -> dist-book/cookbook.pdf
cd .. && node scripts/build-bundle.mjs          # -> dist-book/cookbook-kitchen-bundle.zip

Upload both to the Creem product:

• dist-book/cookbook.pdf (the typeset book, ~24 MB, 823 pages)
• dist-book/cookbook-kitchen-bundle.zip (templates + setup checklist)

No license keys needed: the files are ungated, Creem just delivers them on purchase.

Product description (paste into Creem)

The whole kitchen, plated.

Every recipe in this cookbook is free to read at escoffierlabs.dev/cookbook. This is the edition you buy because you want the artifact: the full guide, typeset and designed for offline reading, plus the parts that are not on the web.

What you get:

• The typeset PDF. 823 pages, cover to colophon, designed to actually read.
• Exclusive hero diagrams that open each chapter. They are not on the website.
• The runnable kitchen bundle: every template, config, and a one-page setup checklist that takes you from an empty machine to a running stack.

One-time purchase. Free updates for the life of the edition. You are buying the designed artifact and the bundle, not access to the knowledge, which stays free.

Thank-you text (paste into Creem post-purchase message)

Thank you. Your two downloads are below: the Premium Edition PDF and the kitchen bundle. Updates to this edition are free, you will get them at this same link. Questions or a problem with a download? Reply to your receipt email.

Refund policy line

Solomon dashboard checklist

• Create/confirm the Creem account; apply the shipper.club discount.
• Set store name “Escoffier Labs”.
• Complete tax/payout onboarding (Creem is merchant of record; it remits VAT and sales tax). Note the non-EU payout fee ($7 or 1%, whichever is higher). Batch payouts monthly so the flat fee is negligible.
• New digital product. Paste the description, thank-you text, and refund line above.
• Upload cookbook.pdf and cookbook-kitchen-bundle.zip as the delivered files.
• Set price $39, one-time. Enable the hosted checkout.
• Publish. Copy the product/checkout URL.
• Hand the URL back: it replaces https://CREEM_PRODUCT_URL in site/src/pages/index.astro and the repo README.md.
• Run a test purchase (Creem test mode, or a real $39 you refund) and confirm BOTH files download.
