This is a list of Sims 4 must-have custom content that makes gameplay better and is too good not to share!
Reminder
Please note that it is a must to keep your downloads updated. New patches and updates for The Sims 4 may or may not cause your downloads to stop working. Most creators update their files immediately, all we have to do is redownload. I will keep a lookout for updates, and update this page as well.
Installing Custom Content and Mods
Step 1: Every mod/custom content should be placed in My Document>Electronic Arts>The Sims 4> Mods
Step 2: If the cc/mod you download is in .package format, you can place it anywhere you want in the Mods folder. If it is a SCRIPT mod, you cannot place it inside a sub-sub folder. If it's a ZIP file, first unzip it and follow the instructions above.
Step 3. Enable cc in-game. If you're using script mods, also enable script mods in-game
Installing Sims and lots
Step 1: Every mod/custom content should be placed in My Document>Electronic Arts>The Sims 4>Tray
Step 2: If it's a ZIP file, first unzip it and follow the instructions above.
Step 3. Enable cc in-game. If you're using script mods, also enable script mods in-game
Step 4. Go to your Sims 4 Gallery in the game, and look for your Sims or the lots you had just installed. If you cannot find them, you might need to enable your custom content in the gallery.
NOTE: After each patch, the game will automatically disable custom contents; you have to enable it
in-game again.
Please be guided accordingly:
Blue Custom Content - Deco only
Green Custom Content/Mods - Functional
Yellow Custom Content - CAS (Sims, skin overlay, make-up, eye colors, clothes, etc.)
Red Custom Content - Build Mode (Includes Lots & House, rooms)

Although it lacks the animation of bread toasting in the toaster, I am still happy with this. Other than the recipes that come with it, the designs look really good in the kitchen.
3. Custom Foods 02/09
Description
These custom foods require Custom Food Interactions for them to work. As for the ingredients, most are optional. However, I would suggest you include Icemunmun's harvestable as they would make the game more realistic and interesting.

Thoughts
One thing I look forward to when there is a new expansion pack or any other pack of The Sims 4 is the new foods. I have always felt that the recipes in the game were never enough to keep me from getting bored playing my Sims. Earlier on, I wasn't too keen on downloading custom food for my game or any mod because of fear that my game would crash. But how was I to resist when so many interesting dishes and mods could make gameplay really fun - and here I am, sharing these wonderful dishes for your Sims to enjoy, too. Of course, I have tested each one and give them a big thumbs up!
Note
Please note that you must have custom food interactions.
4. Custom Food Interactions
Description
This mod allows the fridge and stove to have custom interactions, as well as custom foods.

Thoughts
Having a wide range of fruits and veggies to choose from has increased my list of ingredients from short to long - plus, all these ingredients help my Sims cook their dishes to perfection. Most of all, farming feels more like "farming" now. The Sims 4 should have tackled this since so many Sims 4 fans have repeatedly asked for Maxis to focus on farming - but they have not done so until now. As you continue reading my page, you will find several items that will make you itch to create a farm immediately! You can also check out Arnie's mod pack called THE SIMS 4 FARMLAND, which focuses on farming.
Extra Notes 01
Banana - Once the banana is ready to be harvested, you will now have the option to separate the banana cluster into 3: fruit, blossom, and leaf. All three parts have different uses. Please see the image below. For banana leaf crafting, click here.
Extra Notes 02
Pumpkin Project - The pumpkin can be used as an ingredient in your dishes, but it can also be crafted into pumpkin juice and/or cut into a pumpkin slice. If you download the Pumpkin Carving Recipe Override, the classic pumpkin carver will now require a pumpkin harvestable.
5. Grannies Cookbook
Description
The Grannies Cookbook includes Littlbowbubs own custom recipes. You must download the recipes separately - breakfast, grill, desserts, snacks (including drinks), and toddler food. I keep my cookbook under the new counter with the Snowy Escape. You can put it anywhere and still have accessibility, click on it, and a menu will pop up.

When I saw a picture of the Grannies Cookbook on Pinterest, it not only tickled my curiosity, it actually drove me to download this mod. I wanted it so badly that I was willing to download a mod and not just custom content for my game. I was ecstatic when my game worked fine after I had installed it, and I was way happier soon after because it is the reason for all the custom foods in my game today.
6. Late Dinner
Description
Decorative objects for a rustic or medieval-themed kitchen. The color variation comes in 4, and the set includes 16 objects.

My sims pets enjoy using this station, and I enjoy cleaning and filling up the food bowls.
8. Functional toaster
Description
Ten types of toasts can be crafted with this toaster: Nutella, fried beans, strawberry jam, blackberry jam, peanut butter and banana, cream cheese, hummus, cream and berries, butter, and avocado. Click on the toaster, pick your choice of toast, and watch the simple animation this toaster makes.

My Sims often use this toaster, which is convenient for me when they are in a hurry (late for work or school). It works well with all the custom food I have in my game. This toaster also comes with the animation of the bread popping up from the toaster.
9. Ken You Not Dollhouses
Description
These small and functional dollhouses are sized to fit snugly in the ‘Do It Yourshelf’ cubbies and remain functional in or on top of the cubbies!

Breath of fresh air is what they are! I hate that all the dollhouses in Sims 4 are too big - they take up too much space. These Ken You Not Dollhouses are better than what we already have in our games.
Description
This mod adds grocery shopping to your game. All EA recipes and even custom foods compatible with this mod rely heavily on your grocery items - so if you want to eat a tuna sandwich, it is best to buy bread. You can shop by visiting rabbit holes if the shops are open. You may also have your ingredients delivered to you by mail. On top of this, you may also subscribe to receive food boxes of different kinds: Bakers Dozen, Butchers Block, Drink Crate, Meal Time, Munchie Madness, Vegetarian Haven, and Plasma Night. There is also a grocery store with all ingredients, and you may visit it for your weekly shopping.

I often do not have enough space for the makeup dressers in the game, so this instant make-up mod is very helpful and a space saver.

I really enjoy this mod, especially when it's dinner time, and I make my sims open a bottle of nectar. There is something so satisfying when I see my sims eat and drink altogether while having their dinner, whether alone or with their family.
