How is it calculated?
The average energy value per 100 g of each ingredient is multiplied by the amount in a portion and added up. This is the method recommended for food service by Turkey’s Ministry of Agriculture guidance, and it is widely used across the EU. Values are averages from food composition tables such as TürKomp and USDA FoodData Central. If you use a packaged product, the value on its label always takes priority.
Menu calorie calculator
This calculator is built into every item in the panel
In YouDesignMenu you calculate calories from the recipe and save them to the dish in one tap; allergens show in bold on the QR menu.
Is a calculated calorie figure legally acceptable?
In Turkey, the food-service guidance explicitly allows calculating with average values instead of lab analysis. What matters is using weights that match your recipe and portion. In other countries, check your local rules.
What about water or fat lost during cooking?
Enter ingredients by their raw weight. For frying, add the absorbed oil separately as an estimate. Some items, like rice and pasta, also have a cooked entry — pick the one that matches.
Where does the allergen list come from?
Each catalogue ingredient is tagged with the 14 allergens defined by the EU and the Turkish Food Codex — flour carries gluten, butter carries milk, and so on. For compound products like ready sauces or spice blends, always check the label.
Is my recipe saved anywhere?
No. Everything is calculated in your browser and nothing is sent to our server. To keep your recipes, a free account lets you save them to each item in the panel.
