Frequently asked questions


Is ReciPal a good fit for co-packers and contract manufacturers?

Yes -- ReciPal is well suited to co-packers because it handles the whole product roster in one place. It calculates accurate nutrition and generates FDA and CFIA-compliant labels for every product you manufacture, costs each run so you can quote clients accurately, scales recipes from test batch to production, and flags the Big 9 allergens automatically. Because it is cloud-based, you can manage it from anywhere on any device.

Can I manage multiple clients' products in one account?

Yes. ReciPal stores every recipe in your account. You can keep each client's products organized with tags while working from a single login. You can copy an existing recipe to spin up a variation, scale it to their batch size, and ReciPal recalculates nutrition, allergens, and cost automatically -- which makes managing a large, changing book of products far less work.

Can my clients access their own recipes and labels?

Yes. You can share all recipes and label data with client. You can download reports, costs, and nutrition facts panels in bulk. You can keep each brand's data organized under an account tag giving you the ability to filter for specific client's data in seconds.

Do I need to lab test the products I co-pack, or does ReciPal replace that?

No, database analysis is an FDA and CFIA-accepted method for nutrition labeling, and it's the approach used by the vast majority of food manufacturers. ReciPal draws on the USDA nutritional database and has been used to generate hundreds of thousands of compliant labels without lab testing.

Lab testing is optional and is sometimes used for unusual ingredients not well represented in databases. For most co-packed products, database analysis is an excellent, accepted choice, and ReciPal's partner lab is available if a client does want testing.

Can ReciPal scale recipes from a test batch to a full production run?

Yes. Enter a recipe once and ReciPal scales it to any batch size, recalculating nutrition, yield, and cost automatically. That lets you dial in a client's formula on a small R&D batch and then scale it up to a production run without redoing the math -- and the nutrition label stays accurate at every batch size.

Does ReciPal handle allergens and production tracking across many products?

Yes. ReciPal automatically detects the Big 9 allergens -- milk, eggs, fish, shellfish, tree nuts, peanuts, wheat, soybeans, and sesame -- directly from each recipe's ingredients and keeps declarations current as formulas change. For production, ReciPal's inventory tools track ingredient stock and finished goods with lot-code traceability and production records, so you can manage compliance and traceability across your whole client roster.
