About Us

Welcome to Spicy.Sweet.Sour

Spicy Sweet Sour is a growing home for people who love food — creators, home cooks, explorers, and anyone who believes recipes are more than instructions. They're memories, culture, creativity, and legacy. What began as a personal project by Kanupriya T. — the creator, and the first user of the platform — has evolved into a vision for something much bigger: a global social space where food, community, and creativity come together.

  • A platform for creators
    Spicy Sweet Sour is designed to help food lovers share their recipes, build beautiful portfolios, and express their creativity through cooking, storytelling, and culture.
  • A home for future generations
    We believe recipes are a form of heritage. This platform helps preserve family dishes, cultural traditions, and personal food stories so they can be passed down and discovered for years to come.
  • A place to learn and explore
    From classic techniques to global flavors, users can explore recipes based on mood, ingredients, cuisine, cravings, or curiosity — making cooking more intuitive and joyful.
  • A future powered by intelligent tools
    As the platform grows, AI will help users find what to cook, plan meals, explore nutrition, and discover dishes that match their lifestyle, preferences, and emotions.

Our Mission

To create a global home for food lovers — a platform where anyone can share their recipes, preserve their culture, explore new flavors, build a creative portfolio, and use intelligent tools to cook with confidence, curiosity, and joy.

Our Values

These values guide the heart of Spicy Sweet Sour as we grow into a warm, intentional, and inspiring home for food lovers everywhere.

  • Community First
    Food is meant to be shared. We're building a space where every cook — beginners, home chefs, and creators — can connect, learn from each other, and feel seen.
  • Creativity Without Limits
    Recipes are expressions of identity. We celebrate experimentation, aesthetic storytelling, and the freedom to cook in your own style — whether traditional or wildly inventive.
  • Cultural Preservation
    Every dish carries history, memory, and heritage. We honor traditions and help preserve them for future generations through shared recipes and stories.
  • Accessibility & Learning
    Cooking should feel welcoming, not intimidating. Clear steps, thoughtful design, and supportive tools make it easy for anyone to learn, grow, and enjoy the process.
  • Innovation With Purpose
    Technology should enhance creativity, not replace it. From mood‑based recipe discovery to nutrition planning and AI‑powered cooking assistance, we use innovation to make food exploration smarter and more joyful.
  • Authenticity & Warmth
    Real food, real people, real stories. We value honesty, intention, and the cozy feeling of cooking something meaningful — whether it's a family classic or a new experiment.

Meet the Founder

I'm Kanupriya Tiwari — the creator, and the first user of Spicy Sweet Sour. This platform began as my personal space to document recipes and share cozy, aesthetic cooking videos. But as I built it, I realized food deserves a place where creativity, culture, and community can live together. Spicy Sweet Sour is still early in its journey, but the vision is clear: to build a single platform where people can cook, create, share, and belong.
