Description

For restaurant owners, bake shops, caterers, manufacturers of food products, chefs, and even home cooks. With Salt & Pepper, you can: Create recipes with an ingredient list, procedure, yield, preparation time, notes, and photos/videos. Choose your recipe ingredients from your dynamically-filtered master ingredient list, then select various preparations (such as "finely-diced" or "sautéed"), from a pick-list of over 40 options. Enter costs for each ingredient in your recipe, and Salt & Pepper will display the total cost of the recipe, and the cost per serving. Set a recipe's selling price, and Salt & Pepper will calculate the mark-up and profit information. You can also add "other costs" to your recipes, which can be a percentage of the total ingredient cost, or based on quantity, such as per serving, per batch, or per unit." Use the Suppliers screen to create, edit, and delete ingredients. Changes made to an ingredient's name, price, allergens, food energy, density, or usable portion are applied to all recipes containing that ingredient. You can organize your ingredients by supplier, and further by category. Record your inventory, and set minimum values. Salt & Pepper will calculate the monetary value of each stock item, and the total value of your entire inventory. Scale your recipes up or down, or to a desired yield. The amount and cost of each ingredient, and the total cost of the recipe, are adjusted accordingly. Separate a recipe's ingredients into multiple sections, such as "For the Cake", "For the Frosting", and "For the Ganache". Re-order your ingredients and preparation steps by dragging them. Use one recipe as an ingredient in another recipe. When "Recipe A" is used as an ingredient in "Recipe B", the cost, allergens, and food energy of "Recipe A" become part of "Recipe B" (based on the quantity used). Duplicate recipes, in order to experiment with multiple variations. Track the expiration dates of your ingredients. If you choose, Salt & Pepper will notify you before your ingredients expire. Enter densities for your ingredients. Densities allow the calculation of a recipe's cost or calories when an ingredient is purchased by weight, but the recipe measurement is in volume. Manage shopping lists. You can add ingredients to your shopping lists directly from your recipes. Quantities from multiple recipes are automatically summed. You can arrange your store's aisles to match the physical stores at which you shop, and you can arrange your ingredients in the order that they appear on the actual store shelves. Create notes, with checklists, photos/videos, and a due date (with alarm). Create custom categories for filing your recipes and notes. A recipe or note can belong to multiple categories. For meal planning, custom recipe categories can serve as menus, such as "Rehearsal Dinner Menu". You can also create "outlets" to further categorize items based on location. For instance, if you operate a number of restaurants, you could create a separate outlet for each. Link your recipes and notes to related recipes and notes. Share individual recipes, suppliers, shopping lists, and notes with co-workers, family, and friends. When changes are made to a shared item, everyone receives the changes. You can also set "abilities" for each user. For instance, you can specify whether a particular user is allowed to view or edit ingredient costs. Print your recipes, suppliers, shopping lists, and notes. E-mail recipes and notes. You can send them in PDF format, and as Salt & Pepper data files, which the recipient can import into Salt & Pepper. Use the Conversions screen to convert units of weight, volume, and temperature, and to perform price comparisons. Sync your recipes, suppliers, shopping lists, and notes between all of your iOS devices. Salt & Pepper contains no advertisements.

★★★★★Simply amazing!🇺🇸 US

This is a great resource with lots of customization. I wish i could buy the app and make it proprietary for my business. I also wish they could have made the app for android. Still good enough to stop any future complaints

★★★★Sarah at Salt and Pepper support.🇺🇸 US

Shout out to Sarah at salt and pepper support. I asked for help, I was struggling to make sense of things. I was told by Sarah from support that if it didn’t make sense I should return it to the App Store. I run a small business and struggle with numbers so i was very excited to find an app I could use to help me. Pretty shocked at the level of professionalism.

★★★★★Fantastic - used it for years.🇺🇸 US

I have a small business and make candies for the holidays. I’ve used Salt & Pepper for about 6 years (at least) and I repeatedly return to it. After a recent iOS update it wouldn’t load and I almost cried thinking I wouldn’t be able to use it. Thankfully it wasn’t a problem with the app and it was fine after rebooting my phone. It’s a great mixture of simple yet comprehensive.

★★★★★No customer support🇺🇸 US

I have emailed you several times and no answer. It is a shame because I like and unas the app a lot but is frustrating not getting any attention from them. I’m very disappointed.

★★★★★Near perfection!!!🇺🇸 US

I’ve been a chef for over 25 years and Salt and pepper is my go to for all things costing. I have used many other programs that were either too expensive or too complicated. This one really serves my needs perfectly. Thank you for an amazing product.

★★★★★Very useful🇺🇸 US

I have been using this app for over 2 years and have been pleased!!!

★★★★★Easyyyyyy costing🇺🇸 US

This app has made my costing life super easy. I’ve tried excel templates and it was just too time consuming and complicated. This is easily worth the $$. Absolutely no regrets.

Nikkitakeschina· 2021-05-31
★★★★★Written for professionals🇺🇸 US

I have been in the food service industry since 1981, having worked in many different sizes and styles of restaurants and ultimately having one of my own for the last 20 years or so. The first time I opened this app (I’m not sure how many years ago) I knew it was written for someone like me. Thank you for marrying technology to how a ‘working kitchen’ functions. 👏👏👏 The one request I have is the ability to re-order ingredients after entering them into a recipe, sometimes procedurally things change 😎

Eemyar· 2021-05-02
★★★★★Best app🇺🇸 US

I love this App. It is a good alternative until my business become very big. Any small food business should use this

Julien la belle· 2021-04-02
★★★★Old and klunky (updated)🇺🇸 US

This used to be pretty good. But I added over 2000 recipes, many which were scanned images. It started to hang up, needing to wait two or more minutes to open. The developer said it was my iPads fault, the only app to have that problem. I switched to Paprika 3 and learned what a modern app should be. With so many more features (including a direct download from an online recipe) I wonder how much longer this app will be around. Update: The developer’s response says it all. This program is not meant to be used for a recipe collection; it’s really meant for businesses. From my experience it has no sorting or lookup capability, and is certainly not meant for scanned images. There are many apps out there that are far better for recipe collections and include features that Salt and Pepper does not have such as direct download from a web page and full size printing of scanned images.
