Building Menus

Menus are reusable building blocks in CaterCamp. Build them once, then drop them into proposals and events without retyping.

Creating a menu

From the Menus page, click New Menu. Give it a name (e.g., "Plated Wedding Dinner" or "Corporate Lunch Buffet") and add items.

Menu items

Each item can include:

• A name and description.
• A price (per person or per item, depending on how you sell).
• Optional ingredients, which help with dietary tracking and costing.

Using menus elsewhere

• In proposals — add a menu's items as line items so your quote is detailed and accurate.
• On events — attach a menu so your kitchen and staff know exactly what to prepare.

Tips

• Keep a few templates for your most common packages — it makes quoting much faster.
• Use clear, client-friendly descriptions; the same text can appear on proposals your clients read.
• Plan limits apply to the number of menus on lower tiers. If you hit the limit, you can upgrade under Billing.

Next: send it all in a proposal.
