Affiliate Disclosure

Last updated: September 14, 2026

CreaTistory is a reader-supported site. This page explains, in plain language, how that works and what it means for you as a visitor.

We sometimes use affiliate links

Some of the links on this site — most often in the equipment or ingredient mentions inside a recipe — are affiliate links, including links to Amazon.com as part of the Amazon Associates Program. When a link is an affiliate link, it's usually pointing you to a product mentioned in the recipe, like a specific pan, appliance, or tool.

We may earn a commission

If you click one of these links and go on to make a qualifying purchase, CreaTistory may earn a small commission from the retailer. This is standard practice for affiliate programs and is how many independent recipe sites, including ours, help cover the cost of running the site.

It doesn't cost you anything extra

Using an affiliate link never increases the price you pay. The commission, when there is one, is paid by the retailer out of their own marketing budget — your total at checkout is exactly the same as if you had gone to the site directly.

Our recommendations stay independent

Whether or not a link earns a commission has no bearing on the recipes, tips, or product mentions we publish. We link to products we'd genuinely recommend for the recipe at hand, and we don't accept payment to feature a specific brand or product in a recipe's ingredients or instructions.

How to tell

Articles that contain affiliate links carry a short disclosure note near the top of the page. If you don't see that note on a given article, it means that specific article doesn't currently contain any affiliate links.

Questions

If you have any questions about this disclosure or how a specific link works, feel free to contact us.
