HoReCa
Menu and recipe development for HoReCa brands
I work with restaurants, cafes, hotels and cloud kitchens on menu creation and recipe development. That means new menu items built around your concept, and recipes written clearly enough that every kitchen and every batch turns out the same.
The work
Where I can help
Menu creation
New menu items developed around your concept, your customers, and your kitchen's equipment and team.
Recipe development
From first idea to a tested recipe, in rounds, with structured tastings so feedback is consistent.
Recipe standardization
Gram weights, ingredient specifications and a step-by-step method with the critical steps marked, so every outlet gets the same result.
Batch and central-kitchen recipes
Recipes scaled for prep in bigger batches, for central kitchens and cloud kitchens, with storage guidance for prepared components.
Deliverables
What you get
- Standardized recipe cards with gram weights, method and critical steps.
- Tasting records from every round, so decisions are traceable.
- Batch recipes for central or cloud kitchen prep, where you need them.
- Ingredient and supplier shortlist that fits your menu and volumes.
FAQ
Questions about this work
How do tastings work if we're in different cities?
Tasting samples can be couriered between us at your cost. If that isn't practical, I share the full recipe so your team can make and taste it locally. Every tasting uses a structured feedback sheet, so feedback is consistent from round to round.
Will you sign an NDA?
Yes. I sign an NDA before you share any recipe, formula or confidential detail. If you need to share confidential information on the first call, we can sign one before it.
Do you travel for plant trials?
Most of my work is remote, with trials supervised over video. If you need me on site, in-person attendance can be scoped and priced separately.
