How to Upload a Recipe

Recipes are an integral part of any food business. The Squizify Recipe module ensures that all staff, whether in a single location, or across Australia, or across the world, are on the same page. Recipes can capture step-by-step instructions, including photos and videos of how your products are made.

Once created, you can immediately push across multiple locations. Systemising operations gives you the ability to roll out new content and have it live within hours not weeks.

Here are the simple steps to create your own Recipe card.


From the main menu, select General.

Go to Product Info.

Select Recipes.

Click +Add New.

When the Add New Recipe menu pops out you can start to fill in the information for your recipe.  You don't need to fill in every field, just the ones that are relevant to your business or individual requirements.

Here are some of the sections you can complete:


Title: The name of your recipe

Subtitle: Any extra information or details you wish to add.

Area: This determines where the recipe will sit on the Recipe home page.  You can create these using the Settings menu on the home page.


Category: If you have created sub-categories for the Areas (from the Settings menu above i.e. Burgers/Mains) you can fill this out using the drop down.


Locked by Head Office: Tick this if you do not want anyone at a manager level and lower to be able to change your recipe.
