Menu Design

Digital cooking center

Regulatory compliance integrated into your workflow

Designing menus that comply with UNI 11584 is easy: with Ristocloud, you set the rules once and work visually, with a drag & drop planner that guides you through the creation of your weekly or seasonal cycle.

Compliance is not a document to chase after but a continuous check: what you build corresponds to what you can communicate to authorities and stakeholders, in full compliance with the standard.

Every choice matters, and you see it right away.

Menu Design

For a balanced menu in every respect

During the design phase, Ristocloud evaluates nutritional balance, CAM, food cost and food frequency.

Every choice has an immediately visible impact: if a recipe moves nutrients off target, if a category exceeds the expected frequency, or if the cost exceeds the budget, you understand it immediately and can take action.

It is a guided design process that saves you iterations and reduces disputes during validation.

Instant simulations, more informed decisions

The recipe library, which can be filtered by allergens, categories, cost and nutrients, speeds up menu creation: choose, drag and drop. If you need to simulate costs, replace a recipe and the system instantly recalculates the economic and nutritional impact.

This ‘what-if’ approach allows you to quickly find the balance between quality, compliance and economic sustainability.

Menu Design

CAM and Carbon Footprint always under control

On the environmental front, compliance with Minimum Environmental Criteria (CAM) is monitored directly in the planner.

And when integration with Ecolunch is active, you can also assess the Carbon Footprint (CFP) of the menu or cycle, adding a fundamental element of transparency for administrations, families and canteen committees.

Communicating sustainable choices becomes simple and objective.

Omnichannel exposure, always aligned

With Ristocloud, the menu is not just a file to be printed, but lively, dynamic content that is updated in real time and reaches all communication channels, ensuring consistency and clarity at every level.

An interactive menu accessible anywhere
  • Web portal, totem, webTV/infoscreen and mobile app: users and families can consult menus, filter by allergens, explore recipes and nutritional values, with a clear and constantly updated experience.

  • Every change—from replacing a dish to changing allergens—is immediately reflected across all channels, eliminating manual tasks and reducing operational risks for transparent and consistent communication.
