Imperial Cuisine Delivery: Cooking Boxes
To begin Imperial Cuisine, open your Processing Window (L key). Select the Imperial Cuisine button (see pic on right), put in the stack of food, and select START. It will automatically use the correct number of foods to create an Imperial Cooking Box.
Important Things to Keep In Mind:
- Imperial Cuisine Delivery boxes weigh 50 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- You can go to any Imperial Crafting Delivery NPC to find out the required cooking or alchemy products for crafting each box.
- All Imperial Crafting Delivery NPC’s on each server share the same amount of turn-ins. As of the 11/20/2019 patch, there is no longer a 10 minute cooldown when switching servers or after logging in before you can interact with the Delivery NPC’s
- See below for Imperial Crafting Delivery NPC names and locations.
- The old Imperial Crafting Delivery boxes can no longer be produced. However, if you already have some, you can still deliver them to an Imperial Crafting Delivery NPC.
- 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. https://www.bdodae.com/ is very helpful in determining if a recipe is profitable.
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.

Hi, I dont undertsand how is this profitable. The ingrediments price is much more like the imperial box price. If i put 100 ingrediment, and after finish i get 140 still lesss than a MP price.
You say ” Silver Reward will increase a certain percentage based on your Cooking Mastery Level.”
The imperial box price fix isn’t it?
Yeah, that sux. Maybe they’ll change it in the future.
I have amost 800 cooking mastery and the price doesn’t change, even though the cooking description says “Extra profit +38%”
you should check the ingredients needed for boxes prices, for apprentice for example, fried fish is very cheap, you can get a ton for a low price and pack it and imperial cooking on a 94 CP usage nets you about 12 mill minus what youve spent, which should be minimal depending on the food u bought and market prices, just check all the food listed prices and see whats cheaper, buy it, pack it, sell it, profit
the price is not fix when you sell it on the imperial crafting npc . its increases when your cooking master level increase too . you can see it before selling it. the fix price that you can see is when you sold it on a regular npc
The higher the cooking mastery level, the more % of earning profit
Meaning: base box price(fixed) + x%(mastery) = total
Therefore total is not fixed
I mean looking at it, All ingredients cost 0 silver or it’s hella cheap and what you cook is based on you, for example you can generate profit by selling a-lot of beer because currently the box give you 30 more silver then in the central market (the black market is what I like to call it XD)
in master cooking box, savory steak is blue grade but still need 15 to make one box
