Company's Coming is a popular line of cookbooks that has sold over 30 million copies since 1981. The series is produced by Company's Coming Publishing Limited based in British Columbia, and distributed from Edmonton, Alberta. The series was written by Jean Paré.
Founded in 1981, the Company's Coming series comprises over 200 cookbooks, each on a single subject.[1]
In 2009, Company's Coming Editor Laurie Stempfle wrote Gold: Small Plates for Sharing which received the Canadian Culinary Gold award in the Cookbook category.[2]
Author
Script error: No such module "Labelled list hatnote". Paré started as a caterer. In 1981, at the age of 54, she self-published her first cookbook, printing 15,000 copies of 150 Delicious Squares. The book was sold in specially designed racks at gas stations, grocery stores and at local fairs.[3] This first book started the Company's Coming company. Paré died on December 24, 2022, at the age of 95.[4]
Recipes
During the late 80s, Paré asked a local Morinville, Alberta resident, Jeannette Bachand, for some recipes to include in an upcoming cookbook. The first of Bachand's recipes were published in 1989 after Bachand called Company's Coming for a specific recipe for green tomatoes. There were no recipes for such a thing and was called by Paré for some recipes. When Dinners of the World was being written for release in 1991, Pare asked Bachand for French Canadian recipes. Four of the recipes are featured in the book, but her name is not due to the company's style.[5]
