Puree keeps your office and kitchen teams connected, so nothing gets missed and every event runs smoothly. - Free 30-day trial - No hidden onboarding costs - Fair pricing ## From enquiry to kitchen, in three steps One connected system that flexes to how your business actually runs — drop-off, events, venues, or all of the above. ### Step 01. Capture the enquiry However the enquiry arrives — phone, email, walk-in, or your online form — record the customer, dates and requirements in Puree. Everything you need to quote, in one place. ### Step 02. Send a professional quote Build a beautiful, detailed quote in minutes. Send a link — your customer reviews, accepts online with one click, and pays a deposit on the spot via Stripe if you'd like. ### Step 03. Run the job, your way Confirmed orders flow straight to chef dockets — plus driver run sheets, event briefs, packing lists or venue bookings, only if they apply to how you work. Nothing re-typed. ## Quotes that impress. Dockets that deliver. Juggling spreadsheets, clunky software, and miscommunication between your office and kitchen? Puree connects your customer quotes directly to your kitchen operations. Create beautiful, professional quotes that win business, then watch them automatically transform into chef dockets and delivery run sheets your team can actually use. ### One system for your entire operation. No more juggling spreadsheets, Word documents, and sticky notes. Puree brings enquiries, quotes, payments, chef dockets, delivery run sheets, and kitchen reports into one connected system. Capture leads with online enquiry forms, create professional quotes, take deposits and payments via Stripe, then watch accepted orders automatically flow into chef dockets and driver run sheets your team can actually use. ### Built for how caterers actually work. We know the chaos of event day. That's why Puree gives you a 7-day consolidated view of everything coming up, driver run sheets with mobile access for your drivers, event briefs for your on-site team, and equipment tracking so nothing gets left behind. Integrate with Xero for invoicing and Google Calendar to keep your team in sync, without the double handling. Puree isn't generic business software adapted for catering. It's purpose-built by caterers who've lived the daily challenges of running a catering operation. ## We've been in your kitchen Puree was born from frustration. After years of running a catering business with clunky software that wasn't designed for caterers, we decided to build something better. We know what it's like to spend hours creating quotes, only to manually re-enter the same information for chef dockets. We know the panic when a dietary requirement gets missed. That's why every feature in Puree solves a real problem we've faced ourselves. ## Catering software that actually makes sense No bloated features you'll never use.
