Additions & ingredients

01Which tool to use

All In Menu gives you two separate tools. Picking the wrong one is the single most common setup mistake, and it costs you money — so start here.

The test is simple: if you would charge for it, it is an addition. If it is already in the wrap and someone might not want it, it is an ingredient.

02Build your library once

You define every ingredient and addition once for the whole menu, then attach them to the dishes that offer them. Change a price or a name here and it updates on every dish automatically.

Go to Menu→Library. You will see two tabs: Ingredients and Additions.

Ingredients tab

Add everything that goes inside your dishes. Use Add group to create sections — customers see these section names, so write them the way you would say them out loud.

Additions tab

Same idea, with two extra controls that matter a great deal.

Customer can pick

Only one turns the group into an either/or choice — one bread, one sauce. Any number lets customers stack extras and choose quantities. This is set per group, and applies to every option inside it.

Price

What the addition costs. Leave it at 0 for free choices — customers see a green FREE badge instead of a price.

The tick box

Preselects one option in an Only one group, so the dish opens with your house default already chosen. Only available on Only-one groups.

Required

The customer cannot add the dish to their order until they have chosen from this group. Use it for bread or size-style choices.

Own section

Shows the group as its own separate block on the menu rather than folded in with the rest of the additions.

03Put them on a dish

Adding something to the library does not put it on any dish yet. You choose which dishes offer what — a shawarma and a salad rarely take the same extras.

1. Go to Menu and pick a category.

2. Click the dish you want to edit.

3. In the panel that opens on the right, use the Ingredients and Additions tabs.

Tap a chip to cycle it

Each library entry is a chip with three states. Tap it repeatedly to move through them.

Filled, with a tick

Standard build. The dish comes with it. It is preselected for the customer, who can take it out.

Outlined

Offered. Not in the dish by default, but the customer can add it — still free.

Not shown

Off. This dish does not offer it at all. The customer never sees it.

In the screenshot above, the wrap comes with tomato, pickles, sumac onions and garlic sauce. Lettuce, parsley, tahini, chili paste and fries are offered but not included.

Additions work the same way

Removable ingredients / Add-ons

One-offs that belong to this dish alone and are not worth adding to the library. Use them sparingly — library entries are easier to maintain.

By size

Give a size its own list. A large wrap can offer extras the regular one does not. Leave it alone and every size offers the same things.

04What your customer sees

This is the same dish, on a customer's phone, with the setup above.

Choosing a way

When a dish has a standard build, customers are not dropped into a checklist. They pick a door first — your house recipe, or their own version.

Chef's recipe is the no-thought path: the dish exactly as you make it. Customize opens the ingredient list. Dishes with no standard build skip this step entirely.

Additions

Ingredients

Notice Plain — no ingredients at the top. It is added automatically, so a customer who wants the wrap bare can say so in one tap instead of unticking nine things.

05What your kitchen sees

Everything above exists to produce one clear ticket. The same lines appear on the kitchen display, the printed ticket, the WhatsApp message and your email.

✓ on the first line

Which way the customer chose — your house recipe, or their own.

✓ elsewhere

Something they kept or chose. No charge.

−

Something they took out. Never charged.

+

An addition, with how many and what it added to the price.

Quantities multiply the price, so two portions of a 0.75 extra print as (+1.50). If a customer picks Customize and then changes nothing, the ticket says Your Way (plain) so your kitchen knows it was deliberate.

06Mistakes to avoid

Five things that come up again and again in support.

• Putting a paid extra in the Ingredients listIngredients have no price box, so customers can only remove it — never add it, and you never charge for it. This is the costly one.Fix: move it to the Additions tab and set a price.
• Building the library but never attaching anythingThe library is a list of what your kitchen can do. Until you tap the chips on a dish, that dish offers nothing.Fix: open each dish and set its chips.
• Making an either/or choice “Any number”Customers can then pick saj and Arabic and baguette on one wrap, and the kitchen gets a ticket it cannot build.Fix: set the group to Only one, and switch on Required if they must choose.
• Deleting a library entry to remove it from one dishDeleting removes it from every dish that offers it, across the whole menu.Fix: open that one dish and tap the chip until it is off.
• Marking everything as the standard buildIf all nine ingredients are preselected, Customize becomes a wall of ticks and customers give up.Fix: preselect only what the dish genuinely comes with.
