Bakery & pastry
From oven to display case, every product compliant
CalcMenu computes allergens, best-before dates and margins straight from your recipes. Print mandatory labels and push shelf prices in a single step.
A solution built for your sector
CalcMenu scales to your operation, from a few dozen to several thousand covers. The goal stays the same: one source of truth for recipes, allergens, and costs.
Best-before labels, allergens and shelf prices without the paperwork.
Retail & craft
Bakeries, patisseries, cloud kitchens — print best-before/allergen labels directly from the recipe, no re-entry, HACCP-compliant.
What your teams deal with every day
Best-before and allergen labels done by hand
Copying ingredients and dates by pen takes hours and breeds mistakes. CalcMenu generates compliant labels straight from the recipe.
Shelf prices out of date in the display
Reprinting price tags at every change is tedious. With electronic labels (ESL) a new price or origin appears instantly.
Blurry margins on raw-material cost
When the price of flour or butter moves, your margins shift unnoticed. CalcMenu recalculates each product's food cost in real time.
From bake to display, no improvisation.
Recipes, quantities and labels shared between workshop and shops. You produce what's needed, at the right time, with no overstock.
