FoodCore

• Small bakeries and cake businesses

  Recipe costing, Natasha's Law labels, allergen tracking, order diary and supplier shopping lists for small bakeries.

• Home bakers and market traders

  The lowest plan covers recipes, allergens and labels for one user on one site, aimed at start-ups and market stalls.

• Caterers and growing kitchens

  The top plan adds food safety checks, menus, meal planning, team logins and multi-site management.

Less suited to: Large operations needing an enterprise system or a 24/7 helpline. The founder says FoodCore is not an enterprise ERP and support is a single person who does not answer around the clock.

• Recipe and ingredient management

  Stores recipes, including recipes inside recipes, with ingredients, method, nutrition and HACCP notes linked to one ingredient database.

• Recipe costing

  Calculates cost per batch and per portion, food cost percentage and margin, and recalculates when supplier prices change.

• Allergen tracking

  Tracks the 14 UK allergens at ingredient level and carries them through every recipe automatically.

• PPDS food labels

  Generates Natasha's Law labels from recipes, with shelf life set once so use-by and best-before dates fill in automatically.

• Allergen matrix and menus

  Builds menus from the recipe library and produces an allergen matrix that can be printed or shared as a link.

• Stock control

  Shows stock on hand, sends low-stock alerts and deducts ingredients when a production run is completed.

• Production scheduling

  Schedules production runs against recipes, links them to customer orders and keeps batch notes.

• Orders and collections diary

  Logs customer orders and collections, with wholesale price lists and hand-recorded payments and deposits.

• Supplier shopping lists

  Creates purchase lists grouped by supplier from the planned production.

• Delivery note photo into stock

  Lets users photograph a delivery note to add goods to stock.

• Food safety records

  Daily due-diligence checks, HACCP plans, corrective action register, temperature monitoring and a PDF export for environmental health inspections.

• Meal planning

  Calendar-based meal plans with nutrient and cost totals per day, suited to care homes, schools and caterers.

• Business insights

  Reports on cost and margin trends, waste, estimated carbon footprint, production trends and an audit log.

• Shopify and WooCommerce order sync

  Imports online shop orders into FoodCore; the top plan also includes card payment links.

• US compliance mode

  A per-account setting switches allergens, nutrition panel, units and currency to US rules (FDA Nutrition Facts, the Big 9 allergens, USD costing).

• Barcode ingredient import

  Adds ingredients by barcode to save typing allergen and nutrition data.
