Heartopia Cooking Recipes: How to get every recipe and variant

Published:

Cooking this is one of seven hobbies you can pursue Heartopiaan upcoming free life simulation game that is currently available in closed beta ahead of its planned full launch in 2026. Each hobby comes with its own harvest encouraging you to catch them all, so to speak, by taking appropriate action; in the case of cooking, unsurprisingly, it involves learning and preparing recipes to discover each entry in the collection and master the skills.

Heartopia’s collection catalogs are usually very detailed, but when it comes to recipes there are a few limitations. Namely, until you create every variation of every recipe, it’s not clear what Is variant, as opposed to something recent, which you have to unlock separately, as well as what ingredients you need to make everything.

Below you will find information about our work in progress Heartopia List of recipes to aid you discover the entire collection.

    How to cook in Heartopia

    To prepare a learned recipe in Heartopia, interact with stove object and when prompted to start preparation, insert the required ingredients into the holes in the recipe.

    There’s a cooker outside Massimo’s restaurant in the town center that you can utilize, and he’ll also give you one for your home (and a blueprint so you can craft more if you want) once you unlock the Cooking hobby.

    You will notice that a pair of arrows will appear in place of the appropriate ingredient, letting you know that the current selection can be replaced with another one (including the same type of ingredient with a different quality). Here you can replace different ingredients if the recipe has different variants.

    While cooking you will encounter QTEsmarked with a circular cooking icon that gains a green outline that measures time. Just click or tap the icon once before time runs out to avoid your meal overheating and losing quality, which could negatively impact your star rating. (Interestingly, you can even burn the salad at Heartopia.)

    These are QTEs Very forgiving in terms of time, although you may find that as you level up your Cooking hobby and unlock more intricate recipes, you’ll have to deal with more QTEs per recipe – level 1 recipes only have one QTE during preparation, but as you level up your hobby you’ll quickly find that you’ll have to deal with two or three near misses in the kitchen while preparing a meal!
