Hardie Grant acquires vegan cookbook by YouTuber Olivia

Hardie Grant has signed Make it Vegan by YouTuber Madeleine Olivia.

Senior commissioning editor Kate Burkett acquired world English language rights directly from the author and the book will be published on 28th December 2023.

Olivia is a full-time content creator whose aim is to make it easy and attainable for anyone looking to live a more plant-based lifestyle, the publisher says, providing 550,000 YouTube subscribers with delicious, simple and affordable vegan recipes.

It goes on: “With fuss-free meals including plant-based pain au chocolat, 10-minute mac and cheese and vegan paella, Madeleine will take you from breakfast right through to lunch and dinner (with some tasty treats thrown in for good measure!)”

Burkett said: “I am beyond excited to be publishing Maddie’s debut cookbook. Make it Vegan will provide plentiful options for mealtimes, making it easy for anyone to achieve and maintain a more plant-based lifestyle.”

Olivia commented: “It has been my goal for so many years to share a cookbook with vegan recipes that are accessible to everyone; they’re affordable, simple, delicious and most importantly, ensure that you don’t miss out on your favourite foods.

“It’s all about adding meals and ideas to your repertoire, rather than taking anything away. This book is for new and experienced vegans, plant-based eaters, flexitarians and plant-curious eaters alike.”
