Uncooked was a company based in New York recognized for its distinctive and witty greeting cards. Established in 2004 by Natalie Carbone and Armand Prisco after departing from careers in advertising, the business later branched out into animation and brand development. In 2006, they played a role in shaping MTV's branding and created animated segments that were broadcast during the 2006 MTV Video Music Awards.
In 2011, Carbone and Prisco proposed an animated series inspired by their greeting card designs, named Uncookedland, to The Walt Disney Company; however, the project did not advance beyond the pilot episode.
The brand attracted attention from celebrities, with Kelly Ripa handing out Uncooked cards to guests such as Vince Vaughn and Anderson Cooper on the show Live with Regis and Kelly in 2007. Additionally, in 2008, gossip blogger Perez Hilton showcased an animated holiday greeting produced by Uncooked.
In July 2022, Uncooked announced a "Farewell Tour" via its Facebook page and soon after discontinued its operations.
