Summary: Using Invideo for "New Recipe" Promo Videos (Based on Oct 2025 Data)
For a food blog, a "new recipe" video is the single most engaging piece of content. You need to show "mouthwatering" visuals of the process and the final dish. Invideo's AI platform is a powerful tool for this, allowing you to "add images" and your own video clips, and have the AI quickly edit them into a "tasty-looking" social media video.
Why AI for Recipe Videos Matters in 2025
As a recent (Oct 31, 2025) invideo blog notes, "AI makes the entire process... faster and easier." For a food blogger, this means you can take 10 short, raw clips on your phone (of "chopping," "sizzling," and "plating"), upload them all, and the AI will "handle the technical execution." It will edit them into a "fast-cut" reel, add "upbeat" music, and overlay the "ingredients" as "bold text."
How invideo Simplifies Recipe Video Creation
-
AI-Enhanced Demo (Upload Your Media): This is the best and most authentic workflow.
- Prompt: "Take these 10 uploaded video clips of me making a new recipe. Create a 30-second recipe promo for Instagram Reels. The tone is fast, fun, and delicious. Use an upbeat, catchy music track. Use fast-cuts to the beat. Add bold, clear text overlays for the key ingredients: 1. Onion, 2. Garlic, 3. Tomatoes..."
-
AI-Generated Food Video: If you have no footage (e.g., for a "recipe roundup" post).
- Prompt: "Create a 30-second food video. Show cinematic, slow-motion visuals of pasta being plated and cheese being grated. Use romantic Italian music. Add text 5 Cozy Pasta Recipes on the blog now!"
-
Upload Your Final Photo: You can "add images along with a few key details." Upload your "hero" shot of the final dish and have the AI build a promo around it.
Step-by-Step Workflow (AI-Enhanced Demo)
-
Step 1: Prepare Inputs: Get 5-10 short, vertical clips of your cooking process. Get a beautiful "hero" shot of the final dish. Write down the 3-5 "key" ingredients or steps.
-
Step 2: Upload and Prompt: Upload all your clips and photos to invideo.
- Prompt: "Create a 45-second vertical new recipe video. Use all the uploaded clips. The tone is fast, fun, and easy. Use a funky, upbeat music track. Add bold text overlays for each step (e.g., 1. Chop, 2. Sauté, 3. Serve). End with the uploaded hero photo and the text Full Recipe in Bio!"
-
Step 3: Generate and Refine: The AI generates the video. You can refine it: "Make the text overlays yellow" or "Change the music to be calm and acoustic."

Expert Tips for Better Results
-
Use Your Real Footage: "Show Real People and Real Moments" (Oct 31, 2025 blog). Your own hands making your own recipe is the most authentic content.
-
Prompt for "Fast-Cuts": For social media, "fast-paced" and "fast-cuts" are key. Prompt the AI to "sync the cuts to the beat" of the music.
-
Clear Call-to-Action (CTA): The only goal is to drive traffic. Your prompt must end with: "End with a bold text overlay: Full Recipe on the Blog! Link in Bio!"
