Putting this into practice in Germany
Bring your establishment's Eigenkontrollen together with its HACCP-based procedures. German food supervision is carried out by the competent authorities of the Länder and local districts. Keep hygiene, temperature, traceability and corrective-action evidence organised for the authority responsible for your premises.
EU food hygiene regulation: HACCP, hygiene and training- Keep German customer information and team instructions available even when a manager uses the English reading edition. Review substitutions before the next chart is published.
- Assess cross-contact through the site's handling and cleaning methods. A menu matrix describes ingredient declarations and should not be treated as a guarantee of allergen-free preparation.
What it does
- Per-dish matrix
- Record the 14 mandatory-declaration allergens against each dish so your menu information stays accurate.
- Customer-facing version
- Publish a clear allergen view your team and customers can rely on — download it as a PDF or print it straight from the page.
- May-contain, marked deliberately
- Alongside contains-as-an-ingredient, mark a may-contain cross-contamination risk per dish — shown distinctly on the published version.
- Versioned and kept
- Each published version is kept, so you have a record of what was shown and when.
- Owned by you
- You maintain the matrix; ProCafe keeps it organised and exportable.
- Menu board
- Mark a dish sold out or running low for today and every phone, the web and the kitchen tablet show the same board. Items come from the allergen matrix, so nothing is typed twice, and a new day starts clean.
- Supplier changes and dish review
- Save supplier specifications and link ingredients or dishes. See dishes affected by a specification change, record each review and retain the earlier evidence. Published allergen information changes only through the separate matrix review workflow. Available on web and mobile with an internet connection.
