* if you want to skip this, please still make sure to read below about recipes and pack requirements, as there is a lot of pack integration!
Occult gameplay is up there with one of my favourite ways to play. Food is a part of our Sims lives, and should also be for occults so that they can cook up their preferred foods.
This Recipe Grimoire is a collection of custom recipes (food and drink) for Occult Sims in the Sims 4. There are 5 swatches to start with, I'm sure I'll be adding more!
I have started off this occult culinary journey with: ✨SPELLCASTERS✨
I have plans to later create foods for each occult life state, so I will keep adding to the recipe book for mermaids, werewolves, vampires, plantsims and aliens.
“Spellcasters” as a life state can be played in so many different ways: they can range from gnarly evil witches who practice black magic and eat bird entrails, to happy little fairies who live in cottages surrounded by woods and flowers! I have tried to include a little bit of everything in the recipes I have created. These foods are a mix of fairy, fantasy, green garden witch, apothecary, or black-magic sorcerer etc.
They effect Spellcasters and/or human Sims in many weird and wonderful ways.
E.g. Nettle Tea which helps teenagers suffering with acne, Milk Thistle Biscuits which leave the consumer with prickly thistles in their tongue, and Eye of Newt Soup which most Sims will find disgusting but which Spellcasters will happily slurp up.
RECIPES
39 new recipes for your Spellcaster Sims!

❗❗I really like cross-pack integration, and so it is important to read the pack recommendations (in bold) for each recipe, just to make sure you don’t have anything missing or not working in your game. ❗❗
If something isn't working, please let me know and let me know what packs you have 💗

Hi! Please just download both files attached to this post. One is the Recipebook and the other is all the recipes! ☺️
Lovely Dream
Quick question, which file do I need Occult recipe book or recipe grimoire?
TianaSims
Ahh yes I've heard of that issue once! So glad you worked it out :)
ola'papi
I'm honestly embarrassed XD it was the MACX folder or named something like that...I didn;t realise it was just sitting there still. The game starts up now!
TianaSims
Hi! Sorry to hear that, that's very strange. My game loads normally with it in so I'm not sure why it is conflicting with yours - have you tried loading the game with all other mods removed and just keeping this mod in?
ola'papi
My game is saying the files are corrupted, If I removed the specific file it then goes on to say it's another from your mod so on and so forth. Sadly my game won't start when I try to use this mod?
TianaSims
Hi! I actually don't have discord. Do you use Tumblr? :)
DE4NA1sGH05T™
really stupid question but how do i message you through here? i don't use Patreon much other than following game/art creators. Do you have disord and i could DM there?
TianaSims
Hi! thanks for your message! I've tested running the mod with my game and unfortunately can't replicate this issue as I don't receive any LE's on my end - it could be some kind of small conflict with another mod. If you could send me the LEs over message (here or on Tumblr if you have it!) then I can take a closer look :)
DE4NA1sGH05T™
Hey, i am getting LE's for this mod. - \TianaSims Cookbook 26-04-23\Spellcaster Recipes\(TianaSims) Meals_H_Dandelion Salad.package - \TianaSims Cookbook 26-04-23\Spellcaster Recipes\(TianaSims) Meals_H_Eye of Newt Soup.package I've only just brought "Realm of Magic" the other day but I've been using your main mod for a bit with no real issues that I could tell. (ive got cottage, GTW, Seasons, Jungle Adventure, Luxury Party, Kids Room, Holiday Celebration, and Fashion Street Kit. Packs as well.
Kiara Westbrooks
Thank you very much!

There are more recipes I think on this version, I'll update and put the Patreon book reference on my post. Thanks for the explanations, for the trads, do your best, it's nice.
TianaSims
Salut Heidi! Merci pour the link, I have included it in the description of the Occult Book. My Patreon version of this mod will be the most up to date and recent version, so that is probably the best one to reference :) If I get time I will try and include the translations, however I'm super busy at the moment so might wait for a few more languages to save doing it multiple times!

https://luniversims.fr/links/link/468-livre-de-recettes-occultes-le-premier-grimoire-qui-reprend-39-recettes-pour-les-occultes-un-mod-de-tashatiana/ Explications et traductions française de ce mod, merci et bon amusement. LuniverSims.FR , 5 recettes sont en plus ici, ce sera ajouté bientôt, merci.
heidi (Team de luniversims.fr)
Hello, can you confirm that the version here and the MTS version are up to date? Do you have other recipes here then? Do you continue on the other side too? It's to put the right link on the article. Thank you for pointing out that LuniverSims did the FR translation, thank you! If there are other recipes that go with the grimoire, we'll translate them. Waiting for your answer.
TianaSims
hello :) just letting you know I *think* I've worked out the issue, which is that merging the multi & single tea files put them in the Appetiser/Mains menu in restaurants. I have re-uploaded, keeping the files separate, they should now show up as Drinks! xx
adelar
it just randomly appeared on my simblr dash, and i'm excited to try it! i love the screenshots and the idea. and i'm thankful that you've made recipes as separate files to pick and choose freely because i love being able to choose only the things that i want :)
TianaSims
Thanks Kiara! I'll take a look xx
Kiara Westbrooks
Fantastic idea! Just a heads up that willow bark tea, mugwort tea, nettle tea, lavender tea, sage tea, seem to show up in restaurants as appetizers instead of drinks
TianaSims
I definitely have plans to make foods for the other occults, including Mermaids and Werewolves, in the future:) this project took me a few months so it might be a little bit down the track, but it’s on my list! 🥰
Frezja1728
I really like this idea. Could you make something like this for Mermaids or Werewolves?
TianaSims
So happy you like it!
Yuka
Love, love, LOVE this!!! Thank you so much.
Pixxelrella
Ur very welcome and ofc ill send the ss and yes I have all packs n kits.
TianaSims
Thank you for telling me! 🥰 if you get time could you possibly screenshot/send to me and I can take a look? (Do you have the Get Together EP?
Pixxelrella
