Imperial Cuisine Delivery: Cooking Boxes

To begin Imperial Cuisine, open your Processing Window (L key). Select the Imperial Cuisine button.

Imperial Cooking Icon

 

Place your stack of food inside and select START.

It will automatically use the correct number of food to create Imperial Cooking Boxes.

Take the Imperial Cooking Boxes to any “Imperial Crafting Delivery” NPC to sell. See locations below.

Equip all your Cooking Mastery gear before selling.

Important Things to Keep In Mind:
  1. Imperial Cooking Boxes weigh 10 LT each.
    • Pay attention to your character’s available weight. If you become burdened while crafting the boxes, you will not be able to sell them to the Imperial Crafting Delivery NPC.
  2. The number of Boxes you can turn in each day is based on your Contribution Points divided by 2.
    • For example, if you have 250 Contribution Points, your daily box turn-ins would be 125.
    • The daily delivery quantity can be a mixture of Cooking and Alchemy boxes.
  3. Higher-grade versions of the same food item can be used as a substitute at a 1:3 ratio.
    • For example, although you need Beer x60 to make an Apprentice’s Cooking Box, you will need only Cold Draft Beer x20 to make the same box.
    • The number of dishes listed in the chart is for 1 Cooking Box.
    • Rarely, two different foods are combined into 1 Cooking Box.
  4. Silver Reward listed in the chart is the base amount. Silver Reward will increase a certain percentage based on your Cooking Mastery Level.
    • Be sure to equip all Cooking Mastery and Life Mastery gear and buffs (Seafood Cron Meal or Savory Steak) before handing in your Cooking Boxes.
  5. You can go to any Imperial Crafting Delivery NPC to find out the required cooking or alchemy products for crafting each box.

Decreasing Imperial Cooking Time

Heavy Duty Packaging Cord

With the 7-14-21 patch, Heavy Duty Packaging Cord was added to Old Moon Manager shops for 1,000 silver each. These allow you to package 10 Imperial Cuisine Boxes at one time, greatly reducing the amount of time spent processing. Simply add the Cords with the cooked dishes in the Imperial Cuisine Window and process as before.

Requirements:

To process with the Heavy Duty Packaging Cords, you must have Artisan 1+ Processing and complete a quest given by Carolin. She is located in Heidel, on the upper floor of the building behind the Skill Instructor. Before she will give the knowledge needed to use the Heavy Duty Packaging Cord, she wants you to show her ‘Golden Seal – [Imperial Cuisine]’ x 500. After completing this simple quest, you will be able to use the Heavy Duty Packaging Cords.

She also offers a similar quest to use Heavy Duty Packaging Cords with Imperial Alchemy.

  • Menu (Esc) → Rewards (F3) → Manage Currency Menu

Imperial Cooking Profit

Imperial Cooking profit can be as high as 800k silver per Cooking Box with 2000 Cooking Mastery.

How Do I Increase Imperial Cooking Profit?

  • Increase Cooking level to Guru in order to make Guru Cooking Boxes, which are the most profitable.
  • Gather the materials you need instead of purchasing them on the marketplace. (This can sometimes change depending upon the food cooked and fluctuating market prices.)
  • Wear Cooking Mastery gear during Imperial Box exchange:
  • Check the cost of making an item and the cost of selling the item on the marketplace, before deciding to do Imperial Cooking. Many items make more silver via marketplace. bdolytics.com is very helpful in determining if a recipe is profitable.
