The kingdom of CooKingdom is a place responsible to all the cuisine in multiple worlds. However the kingdom's precious treasure, the Recipe-Bon is stolen by a bunch of phantom thieves named the "Phantom Bundle Gang" whose aim is to monopolize every cooking of the world for themselves by capturing the Recipepe, small cooking fairies that represent every dish in the world. As a result, three Energy Fairies from the kingdom were sent to the human world in the town of Oishiina Town, who one of them met a 13-year-old named Yui Nagomi and her friends, Kokone Fuwa and Ran Hanamichi to become Pretty Cures in order to stop the Phantom Bundle Gang from capturing all the Recipepe and bring the Recipe-bon back from their clutches.

Development[]

On November 4, 2021, Toei trademarked the name for the new series that will be released for the 2022 season. On November 25, 2021, the series title was officially unveiled on Toei's official website.[24][25][26] The official website is then later updated on January 9, 2022, with new information and reveal of the main characters of the series.[27] Regarding the main theme of the series, ABC Animation Producer Kanako Tada said that "Food and cooking is irreplaceable in life, and at the same time, it has many important elements that give color to everyday life. Through this work, the motto Yui Kazumi cherishes: "Meals bring smiling faces" will surely be an important word for everyone." Toei Animation producer Yasumi Kaori also said that "Warm feelings will surely make you smile. The happiness and joy of "sharing" smiles also opens up new smiles... With that in mind, I chose "gratitude" and "sharing" as the main theme, and "Food" as the center of the story."[28]

The series also marks the debut role for Hana Hishikawa, in which she debuted her voice acting career back in 2020.[29]

On March 11, 2022, Toei Animation announced a hiatus, due to its production being affected by a third party hack that had tampered with the studio's own files.[30] It was later announced on March 13, 2022, that the show would be on hiatus for at least four weeks.[31]
