Book Description

The Epicurean Tarot combines the classic imagery of traditional tarot cards with 78 tempting recipes — and offers food for thought to anyone who hungers for a taste of the metaphysical life.
Recipe cards with a tarot twist

The Epicurean Tarot is founded on the classic tarot — but it’s unlike any other collection of tarot or recipe cards in history. A must for cooks and tarot enthusiasts alike, the Epicurean Tarot supplements classic tarot card illustrations with recipes that were specially selected to capture the flavor of those cards, from the Fool’s Caramelized Nuts to the World’s Oysters Rockefeller. The entire set — including a 35-page book of descriptions, tips, and hints for cooking with the cards — comes packaged in a deluxe slipcover box that's perfect for gift-giving.

A Tasteful Introduction to the Art of Tarot

While the style is light and breezy, the Epicurean Tarot is a sound introduction to the longstanding symbolism, structure, and meaning of the tarot — making it an invaluable tool for those who crave more spiritual meaning in their everyday lives, as well as a great guide for cooks and connoisseurs.

Illustrated with the Universal Waite Tarot

The images in the Epicurean Tarot are reproduced from the Universal Waite Tarot, one of the most popular and most recognized tarot decks in the world. The Universal Waite Tarot was designed more than 100 years ago by Arthur Edward Waite, illustrated by Pamela Colman Smith, and re-colored in the early 1970s by Mary Hanson-Roberts.

Are You Hungry?

If you're hungry for meaning — or you just want a taste of the metaphysical life — grab a knife and fork and cut the cards. The Epicurean Tarot will serve you well.
