Hi! I’m Gabriella Stern!

I'm a cookbook author, recipe developer, food stylist, and creative storyteller based in New York City.

My work lives at the intersection of food, culture, and social impact.

I love exploring how recipes can preserve heritage, build community, and inspire connection.

Gabriella Stern About Me

Inspired by my Costa Rican and Jewish heritage, I share seasonal recipes and stories that celebrate thoughtful cooking through my weekly newsletter called Pantry Diaries.

I'm the author of the forthcoming Soda Shoppe: 50 Great Drink Recipes (Smith Street Books).

And I collaborate with brands, publications, and mission-driven organizations on recipe development, food styling, editorial content, and content creation.

I'm currently available for freelance projects in food writing, recipe development, and food content creation.

Let’s work together!
