Reviews

What our customers say

Small food businesses using FoodCore every day.

★★★★★

"I used to spend hours every week updating my spreadsheets every time flour or butter prices went up. With FoodCore I just change the ingredient price once and everything updates automatically. I honestly don't know how I managed without it."

🧾
FoodCore customer
★★★★★

"Getting my allergen labels right was the thing that stressed me out the most — I was never fully confident I hadn't missed or messed up something. FoodCore generates them straight from my recipes, so I can open my shed every weekend knowing everything is correct. Such a weight off my mind."

🏷️
Cake shed baker
★★★★★

"I was sceptical at first because I'm not very techy, but I was set up within an afternoon. When I had a question, Dec at FoodCore was there to help me. My recipes are all in one place now and I finally feel like I'm running a proper business rather than just winging it."

FAQ

Common questions

Do I need a card to start the free trial?

No. The 7-day trial needs no card and no setup fee. You create your account at signup.foodcore.io and you are working within minutes.

Can I cancel at any time?

Yes. There are no contracts and no cancellation fees. Cancel from your account settings and your subscription simply does not renew.

Which plan am I?

Most people start on Essentials (£25/month inc. VAT) for recipes, allergens and labels. Choose Growth (£40) when you need costing, stock and production, and Core (£65) for food safety, orders, teams and multi-site.

Is my data safe, and is it mine?

Yes. Every customer gets their own private instance. Backups are encrypted and taken daily, on-site and off-site, and you can export your data from within the app at any time.

Does it work if the kitchen has no signal?

Yes. After one online visit your recipes, ingredients and label templates are available offline. Customer and order data is deliberately never stored on the device.

Compliance

Built for UK food law compliance.

FoodCore is designed from the ground up for UK food regulations. Natasha's Law, PPDS labelling, FIR 2014, and allergen disclosure — all handled automatically so you stay on the right side of the law.
