Free Lite version by YSEKventures. It does the arithmetic from the figures you enter. A record-keeping aid, not legal advice.

Cost a dish and check its allergens

Add the ingredients in a dish with pack size, pack cost, usable yield and amount per portion. The tool shows the cost per portion, GP% after VAT, the price needed for your target GP, and an allergen row for the 14 allergens that must be declared in the UK.

Is the recipe cost calculator free?

Yes. This Lite edition is free with no sign-up and covers one dish with up to 6 ingredients. The full UK Recipe Costing, Menu Engineering & Allergen Matrix in the YSEKventures Etsy shop adds unlimited dishes, a printable menu matrix, menu engineering, CSV, print and backup.

Is the allergen matrix a Natasha's Law label?

No. It is a record-keeping aid built from the allergens you tick on each ingredient. Check supplier labels. Pre-packed-for-direct-sale food needs its own label.

Where are my figures stored?

Nowhere. The free tool does not save or send anything, so refreshing the page clears it.
