3. Our Background Situation
Our app could be for the single parent who is
organising a dinner party. They attempt to cook a
meal however they don’t have a lot of time , they
are very unorganised and don’t know what to cook
or how to present it.
4. The Problem
People often burn and under cook their food, they also
find it hard to get new inspiration and are often left
clueless on what to cook.
5. The Question
How can I cook a tasty and wholesome meal for my
family and make sure its cooked for the right amount of
time?
6. The Situation
• 1 in ten women can only cook three
meals without looking at a recipe book
• Eight in ten women admit to cooking the
same meals
• 28% of Americans cannot cook.
• Ready meals are on average £5 for a 1
person serving
7. Elevator Pitch
Do you struggle to find simple recipes and inspiration to cook?
Our app will benefit a large amount of people and inspire more people to cook or
even make cooking a passion. Our app will help you to find tasty recipes that
are just right for you based on time and ingredients that you have. Easy to follow
tutorials will guide you along the way. It will also have a timer with notifications
15, 10 and 5 minutes before the food is ready. Therefore you needn’t worry about
burning or undercooking perfectly good food.
Unlike other cooking apps on the market today, we will have a measurement and
conversion page, we will categorise the recipes by ingredients or time available.
We will also include a balance between extra health and not so healthy recipes.
You can share videos, photos and reviews on our app. Our favourite’s page will
be easy to use and add you can add your favourite recipes to it. We also aim to
incorporate social media sites in the future and connect to shops to provide
reward vouchers. For users at the top of our leader board.
