The CalorieFinder

Sustainable Food Receipt Analysis

At the CalorieFinder, we believe everyone should know the nutrition profile of every meal we consume, whether it is a take home (takeaway) food, or  just at work having lunch.

We are advocating for healthier food options and better nutrition out of home, in the workplace and in our canteens.

Our mission is to empower chefs or anyone in charge of a food business to obtain the nutrient profile of every dish they sale; not just calories but the complete macronutrients picture of every meal to help us better understand the nutritional quality of our meals.

We are almost unique and pride ourselves in our approach and the close relationship we have and aim to maintain with our clients and their food businesses.

Our research team is made of nutritionists and chefs; this combined background makes our job easy to fulfill. Visit Purus, the CalorieFinder's blog created to share helpful tips and articles on foods, nutrition and health using evidence based science. Email us if you want the nutritionists to cover a topic on nutrition and health with evidence based information.

 

Specialties

We provide the recipe analysis and/or lab testing of every meal on the menus in food businesses; For example, whether you're ordering a meal from your favourite local restaurant or you are in a restaurant and order a plate of food, you may want to know the nutritional quality of the foods on the plate. We support chefs and food businesses by analysing their recipes or testing the food samples to obtain the nutritional  information.

We are based in London and YES we cover the whole of the UK. We receive food recipes and samples from our clients and we establish the nutrient profile of every food, based on the recipes we receive and the cooking techniques used. Our current clients include prestigious cafes, restaurants, fast food outlets, food delivery businesses and private chefs; we are extending our services to publishing chefs, canteens, hotels, contract catering businesses, [etc.. ]

We provide 2 set of services to enable our clients to obtain the nutrition profile of every dish they sale. The choice of which service to choose remains at the discretion of each client and the advice of the nutritionist. For example, the nutritionist may recommend a lab test of your beef stock and use the results to build the nutrient profile of the dish that goes into. From experience, 5 to 17% of a menu may fall into the bracket of lab testing and the rest can be achieved through our accurate recipe analysis formula, but bear in mind every food business practice is different.
