One recipe, built once, with allergens, QUID and nutritionals calculated automatically as it's built.
Building a recipe and keeping its allergen declaration, QUID percentages and nutritional panel all accurate and in sync is normally three separate jobs, done by three different people, at three different points in time. Every time an ingredient changes, all three have to be revisited — and it’s easy for one of them to lag behind.
Food Trace’s Recipe Builder treats them as one job. Recipes are built by adding approved ingredients straight from live supplier specifications, so allergens, QUID and nutritionals are calculated automatically as the recipe takes shape — not reconciled afterwards.
All 14 major UK and EU allergens are detected automatically from ingredient specifications and flagged at the recipe level, along with “may contain” and cross-contamination risks. Nobody has to manually cross-check an ingredient list against an allergen matrix.
Nutritional values are calculated per 100g and per serving using the McCance & Widdowson food composition database — the same reference source used by the NHS and the Food Standards Agency — and export directly for labelling and buyer submissions.
Sub-recipes — sauces, marinades, doughs — can be built once and reused as ingredients in other recipes, with full version control, audit trails and side-by-side comparisons whenever something changes. Because ingredients pull live data from approved supplier specs, a change at supplier level flows straight through to every recipe that uses it.
Food Trace is trusted by UK food brands including Selfridges, Harrods, Itsu and Fortnum & Mason. Read more about Recipe Builder or book a free demo.
