ICYMI: The Little Wins That Make a Big Difference
As a business, you have to focus on the highest-impact work. For us, that's building the most intuitive nutrition label maker. But there’s always a layer of smaller improvements that never quite rise to the top on their own. We call these "little wins" and they tend to pile up.
So we made space for them.
We set aside a full day we called “Winsday” as a chance to focus purely on the small stuff that matters. Customer suggestions, edge cases, quality-of-life tweaks, and fixes we’d been wanting ourselves. The result? Over 20 updates shipped in a single day.
Some are deep in the weeds. But here are a few you might appreciate (and may have missed):
🏷️ Nutrition Labeling
Enhanced Recipe Card
Rearrange sections, hide what you don’t need, and adjust scale for more print-friendly outputs.
Additional Optional Nutrients
We added support for Biotin, Iodine, Chromium, Molybdenum, Chloride, Choline, Omega-3, Omega-6, Water, and Ash.
Flexible Facility Allergen Statements
You’re no longer locked into “Manufactured in a facility that also manufactures…”. Use “May contain” or whatever phrasing best fits your product.
Opt Out of Duplicate Ingredient Warnings
If you intentionally repeat ingredients to reflect process steps, you can now turn off the warning.
📥 Downloads
SKU Included in Recipe Exports
If you’re using SKUs, they now come through in your CSV downloads.
Last Updated Date for Ingredient Costs Downloads
Quickly spot which ingredients might need a refresh.
Bulk Download Expansion
Bulk downloads are now available even if you only have a couple of recipes—no more minimum threshold.
📦 Inventory
Require Lot Codes Setting
Ensure lot codes are always captured across inventory actions and production runs. We’ve also made this easier to catch during onboarding.
Improved Negative Lot Code Handling
If a lot code goes negative, we still flag it—but we no longer keep reusing it automatically in future runs. Cleaner tracking, fewer downstream issues.
✨ Plus a Bunch of Small Polish
We also rolled out a variety of subtle design improvements—cleaner layouts, updated settings menus, sticky navigation, and spacing tweaks that make day-to-day use just a bit smoother.
Final Thoughts
These updates may be small individually, but together they add up. They reduce friction, clean up edge cases, and make your experience just work better.
We’re always listening, iterating, and looking for ways to make ReciPal the most user-friendly, reliable nutrition label software for your food business. We're setting a regular cadence to take on the inevitable backlog of these smaller, but important projects. So if there's a little win that would make your life easier, let us know. We're here for it!
