# Zestful Kitchen Joy

[Zestful Kitchen Joy](https://kitchen-dropship.mock.shop/llms.txt) is a [mock.shop](https://www.mock.shop/) sample store for building against a small kitchen tools and storage shop before a real Shopify store is ready. The catalog includes spiral vegetable slicers, ergonomic kitchen slicers, chef's knives, herb and meal-prep containers, a stackable airtight food storage container, and a compact juice extractor. There are eight products across two collections. Each product pairs two option selectors, using choices specific to the item.

mock.shop is an auth-free Shopify Storefront GraphQL API backed by sample reference stores. Find out more about [mock.shop sample stores](https://www.shopify.com/blog/mock-shop).

## When to use this store

Choose Zestful Kitchen Joy when you want to build a compact kitchen gadget shop with cutting tools, food storage, and product-specific configuration choices.

Use Zestful Kitchen Joy for:

- Compact kitchen tools and storage shop with spiral slicers, chef's knives, meal-prep containers, a stackable food storage container, and a juice extractor
- Stainless Steel Spiral Vegetable Slicer product pages with `Blade Finish` and `Handle Color` choices
- Browsing preparation and food-storage collections and combining configured products in a cart

Choose another mock.shop store if you need a broader kitchenware assortment with cookware, serving pieces, and single-option products. Browse <https://mock.shop/llms.txt> to find a store that matches your catalog.

## Example Zestful Kitchen Joy query

Here’s an example GraphQL `POST` request that retrieves options and variant prices for one product from <https://kitchen-dropship.mock.shop/api>:

```bash
curl https://kitchen-dropship.mock.shop/api \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  --data '{"query":"{ product(handle: \"stainless-steel-spiral-vegetable-slicer\") { id title options { name values } variants(first: 50) { pageInfo { hasNextPage } nodes { id title selectedOptions { name value } price { amount currencyCode } compareAtPrice { amount currencyCode } availableForSale } } } }"}'
```

This query retrieves Stainless Steel Spiral Vegetable Slicer, including option values, variant IDs, selected options, availability, and current and compare-at prices. Use the selected variant’s ID and price when adding it to a cart.

The endpoint doesn't require authentication or an access token. Read <https://kitchen-dropship.mock.shop/llms.txt> for catalog details and store-specific instructions.

## What this catalog lets you test

Build a compact kitchen gadget shop where customers choose a slicer’s blade finish and handle color, then browse containers for meal preparation. Zestful Kitchen Joy supports that request through Precision Prep Essentials and Culinary Preservation Suite. On the Stainless Steel Spiral Vegetable Slicer, Blade Finish changes the price while Handle Color remains a separate choice. Other products use different options, including Lid Seal and Capacity. Read those per item and carry the selected variant into the cart rather than using one selector layout for all eight products.

Preview the catalog in a storefront by opening <https://kitchen-dropship.hydrogen.mock.shop> in a browser.

## Build with an AI coding tool

To build a kitchen tool storefront with Zestful Kitchen Joy using Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Lovable, or another AI assistant, copy the prompt below. It gives the assistant the store domain and directs it to the catalog instructions before it starts writing code.

```text
Build me a Hydrogen storefront using kitchen-dropship.mock.shop as the store domain. Setup instructions: kitchen-dropship.mock.shop/llms.txt
```

Shopify also provides a [mock.shop starter project](https://github.com/Shopify/mock-shop-starter): a Hydrogen storefront with product pages, collection browsing, and a working cart already connected to mock.shop. You or your AI coding tool can customize this code instead of building those pieces from scratch.

Follow the repository’s setup instructions, then set `PUBLIC_STORE_DOMAIN=kitchen-dropship.mock.shop` in `.env` and restart the dev server to use Zestful Kitchen Joy’s catalog. Leave `PUBLIC_STOREFRONT_API_TOKEN` empty; mock.shop doesn’t require a token.

## Move to a real Shopify store

mock.shop uses fictional, read-only catalog data. Cart operations work, and checkout is mocked: no payment is taken and no real order is placed. The Customer Account API isn’t supported.

When you’re ready to launch, point your storefront at a Shopify store and add that store’s public Storefront API token. If you don’t have a Shopify store yet, [start a Shopify free trial](https://www.shopify.com/free-trial) to create one.

Read the [mock.shop developer documentation](https://shopify.dev/docs/storefronts/headless/mock-shop) for setup and migration details.
