The cookbook written by notorious cancer fraud Belle Gibson is still being sold online.

Cancer fraud Belle Gibson’s notorious cookbook The Whole Pantry has been found selling online through international retailer Amazon.

The book listed on the American version of Amazon describes Gibson as an “inspirational young mother” who, after being “diagnosed with terminal brain cancer”, began to “treat herself through nutrition”.

The book is described as a “phenomenal resource of recipes, wellness guides and personal support”.

The book and app of the same name were said to have earned the 24-year-old more than $500,000 before she admitted she had never suffered cancer.

The confession caused almost all retailers to pull the fraudster’s products.

The availability of the book has not gone unnoticed by Amazon shoppers, who warn others of Gibson’s history in the reviews section.

“Fraud, the author already admitted never having cancer,” one user wrote.

“She has admitted her claims are fraudulent. There are links in multiple news sources demonstrating this,” another said.

The book has a one star rating – the lowest possible score a work can be given on the website.

The disgraced blogger is currently embroiled in legal action after the Consumer Affairs Victoria was awarded the right to pursue a civil suit against her in March.

The  CAV alleges Gibson made false and misleading claims that were used to market her app and cookbook.

It is also being alleged the blogger didn't pass on up to $300,000 of promised donations to charities.

Gibson failed to turn up to court for the second time last Friday and is reportedly yet to file a defence in the case against her.

The Age reported that Justice Debra Mortimer has given Gibson until 4pm on July 10 to file before she risks being charged with contempt.

“They are serious allegations and I want Ms Gibson to know the consequences of not contributing in this case."

Gibson could face prison if found guilty of contempt of court.
