The blueprint

From recipe to profit, in five steps

This is the exact sequence we recommend to caterers who want to sell in bulk — pulled straight from how SendOrder is built to be used.

Create your account

Set up SendOrder and connect Stripe so you're ready to get paid.

Build your menu

Add recipes, dishes and menus with real ingredient costs.

Find your winners

See which dishes carry the best margin at a glance.

Package the offer

Build catering packages for 3, 5 and 10 guests from those dishes.

Publish & sell

Put the offer on your site and in-store, and let orders come in.

SendOrder takes it from there — invoicing, payment, and the prep list your kitchen needs.
