Cucinovo review
A scalable web platform covering recipe costs, purchasing, menus, and multi-location work.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Cucinovo is a web-based recipe management and food-costing platform for home cooks, restaurants, caterers, and multi-location kitchen groups. It organizes recipes and ingredients, calculates cost per portion, scales yields and events, rolls costs through sub-recipes, and creates consolidated shopping, grocery, and prep lists. For restaurant teams, it extends into menu management, supplier information, purchasing, waste tracking, team roles, and multi-location operations.
Its pricing spans household and restaurant use. The Free plan costs €0 and includes unlimited recipes, ingredients, and categories, shopping and grocery lists, import/export, one household, and one user. Plus costs €9 per month monthly or €7 per month with annual billing, adding meal planning, cost per portion, loss calculation, and family sharing. Restaurant-oriented Starter costs €29 monthly or €24 with annual billing and adds recipe breakdowns, sub-recipes, menu management, share links, and step photos and video. Pro costs €79 monthly or €66 annually, adding menu analytics, purchase orders, event planning, supplier information, and shopping by supplier. Enterprise adds unlimited locations, cooking mode, and recipe approvals.
The strongest fit is a growing operation that wants recipe costing connected to purchasing, menus, suppliers, and operational collaboration rather than a tool limited to recipe storage. Yield, portion, and event scaling help teams adapt recipes, while automatic cost roll-ups and waste tracking support ongoing food-cost decisions. Role-based access and multi-location support make the higher tiers relevant to larger kitchen groups. Smaller teams may find the restaurant tiers excessive if they only need basic recipe organization, and the Free plan is oriented toward household use. Cucinovo suits teams that need breadth across recipe and kitchen operations; those seeking a narrower personal recipe tool may prefer the simpler Free experience.
