Thr333

By Emily Heidrich, Eabha Lambe and Ella Batten

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.

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.

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?

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

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.
