Homemade Ingredients ~ handmade + stand mixer
Home Chef Hustle Handmade Prepped Ingredients Mod has now been moved to it's own page - download here.
---
Updated 20-08-2025: Please delete old versions & redownload the ingredients.
Single servings of ingredients are now named as 'Portion of IngredientName' to make it easier to know which serving size a recipe calls for.
Please note that recipes calling for xnumber of 'IngredientName' will take that number of portions directly from the large serving of the ingredient. It is not asking for that number of whole large servings unless the number is more that 8. Recipes that ask for xnumber of 'Portion of IngredientName' will require that amount of single portions in inventory/fridge and will not auto take from the large serving.

Info & Download Instructions:
Each recipe makes 4 servings. Servings are available to pick up from the 'tub'. You must first 'pick up' the single ingredient from the tub for your game to use the ingredient.

Stand Mixer Override.package
This adds my new ingredients to be made on the stand mixer alongside Ea's ingredients - This will conflict with other mods that override the stand mixer.
Requires the home chef hustle stuff pack.
You need to also download the recipe packages you would like.

Any issues please let me know! This mod is a work in progress ~ ingredients will become more useful as more recipes are released and changes may be made. Feedback much appreciated!

not sure why but bot on discord keeps saying your homestead mods are outdated but I have the most recent versions
Hi sorry i'm only just seeing this. Could you send me any reports to my discord so I can take a look?
please edit the override to allow the stand mixer to work off-the-grid/able to be upgraded so it works off the grid. i found another mod that does this here https://modthesims.info/d/683683/functional-off-the-grid-food-mixer.html but its an override and im scared that it might conflict with yours
I will look into doing this 😊
I'm having an issue where the butter is not registering as a food object once it's been made. I can't take portions or put it into inventories, or even throw it away. (No LEs, and other prepped ingredients seem to work fine.)
Oops sorry about that, I had missed the tuning file thank you for letting me know! It has been updated now. 😊
I have a quick question. . . . was i supposed to download all 4 files to make everything work? So the issue im having is that I made the prepped veggies and it cant be used in your recipes. Was i supposed to download either the eaprepped or the myindgrients or both?
Are you grabbing a portion from the tub?
Such a cool feature! Quick question though, can the frosting be used as a topping for desserts or is it just a standalone "snack" to eat?
At the moment the frostings can be used for the baking skill recipes (cupcakes & cookies) from the little bake off series I'm (still slowly) doing.
I really love this mod, but I'm having an issue with the Prepped Veggies (EA Version). The sims never complete the action and move the veggies to the tub. They just stand there and the action never ends. I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong as every other handmade prepped ingredient works perfectly.
Which veggies do they get up to chopping before stopping? Are any errors popping up or BE's?
Can we have both the Mixer override & Handmade My Ingredients package in our game at the same time? Would like to have more mixer options, but also option to do it off the grid if needed. TY!
Yes you can have all of them in game at once 😊
I’ve been playing with the add on for a while. I love it! These additions are so much more immersive. EA should cut you a check for making this game better.
Hahaha thank you! I definitely like the prepped ingredients more without having to use the stand mixer!
Hello! I don't have HCH yet, and I don't really plan on using prepped ingredients in my play. Do I just need the homestead helper in this case as a bridge to your other recipes?
Yes, you will only need the homestead helper as it contains a lot of grannies cooking props 😊 This food prepping mod is not required for grannies cookbook or the recipes.
You are so talented!! Just wondering, will Grannie's Cookbook require your custom ingredients (aside from the frosting)?
Where it makes sense I will be adding them as optional ingredients 😊
I cannot wait to give this a whirl. Something tells me I'll be making another mod video soon. Which btw I did include "Grannie's Cookbook" as one of my Top 5 Most Favorite Mods and Why I Use Them. Have a look if you'd like https://youtu.be/QlcNDMhqFYE
Thank you so much for including Grannies Cookbook alongside such amazing game saving mods & their creators! ❤️
