Whether you’re plating up a feast or whipping up something casual, why not capture those mouthwatering moments in style? Enter the instax mini Link 3™ smartphone printer — your new bestie for printing and sharing all the deliciousness.
Our fresh ideas are here to help you capture and share your culinary creations like a pro.
Slow down, be present, enjoy the little moments
Get inspired by @xiensscran, who’s showing us how those little moments —like cooking dinner with your partner — are worth savouring.
In her latest video, Xiengni captures everyday experiences — like shopping at the farmer’s market or making a simple meal at home — and turns them into printed keepsakes with her instax mini Link 3™ printer. These printed snaps help remind her and her partner to slow down and appreciate the little things, even amidst the hustle and bustle of everyday life.
Want to do the same? Whether it’s snapping a pic of a Sunday roast with the fam, a Friday takeaway night, or an evening cooking up a storm with your bestie, print those memories. Even something simple like picking fresh basil from your windowsill (before the plant withers) can become a memory to hold onto.

Visual recipe book
Another super fun way to use your instax mini Link 3™ is by creating your own visual recipe book! Start by snapping pics of your ingredients, and write down the quantities onto the frame.
