CALCULATING NUTRITIONAL INFORMATION The new look NPC has been designed around the steps that you would typically take to produce a nutrition information panel. There are four main steps. You need to: 1. Search the NPC database (or your custom list) for each ingredient in your recipe 2. Select and add each ingredient to your ingredient list, including the amount used 3. Enter your final recipe or batch weight (if it is different to the weight of your ingoing ingredients), the serve size and number of serves per package and 4. Produce your nutrition information panel and then print or save it.

WRITING INGREDIENTS LISTS � Descending order by Ingoing weight. � Food Present in the greatest amount to least amount. � Additives – any substance added to a food eg flavour, colour, preservative, starch, vegetable gum. � Percentages ? Up to you.
