For example, while our focus for small children tends to be on serving bite-sized portions of fruits and veggies, or promoting independent choices through child-friendly buffets, we know that teenagers enjoy international food trends or takeaway snacks.

Depending on the facility, up to three menus can be selected from – so there's something for every child. Buffets, a free choice of side dishes and special offers create plenty of variety. When compiling our menus, we make sure to avoid frequent repetition. What's more, our employees are deeply rooted in their local communities. They know our partners personally and are familiar with the social, cultural and culinary conditions of their region. We channel this holistic experience into our menu design.

We have also begun raising awareness of the health benefits of plant-based nutrition amongst our kitchen managers, cooks and serving staff.

We aim to pay our employees fair wages, comply with German Nutrition Society guidelines, and provide access to affordable lunches to as many families as possible. We genuinely believe children should also be able to enjoy meals that are a bit more elaborate, both in terms of their cost and preparation.

When compiling our recipes, we follow DGE guidelines.

High-quality organic ingredients are an integral part of many of our recipes. We can offer a 100% organic menu to day care centres and schools on request.

It is our vision – and mission – that all our customers have access to delicious, healthy and sustainable meals. We want to be pioneers in the field of catering for schools and educational institutions and actively shape it as a driver of innovation.

Even so, we aren't able to source fresh vegetables year-round in the quantities we need. That's why we also use frozen vegetables, which, as research has shown, are also rich in vitamins and minerals. We ensure that the vegetables we use are washed and shock frozen immediately after harvesting to avoid quality loss before processing. Our frozen vegetables do not contain any additives.

Allergy sufferers can choose from up to two menus per special food form, depending on the region and requirements.

We make it easy to order meals for your child with special dietary needs:

1. Contact our service center and ask for the request form for special dietary needs or go to „Manage profile“ and click on the button Special food. There you will find the special food form for download.
2. Fill out the paperwork and send it, together with a note from your child's doctor, to our service center.
3. We'll take care of the rest. Once your application is approved, your child will receive a specially prepared meal every day from our local kitchen staff.

Since the choice of suitable, high-quality products is somewhat smaller in this category and we have to guarantee a high level of food safety, we offer a two-week menu for breakfast and afternoon snacks and an eight-week menu for lunch.

In our "cook@school" programme, for example, we bring a mobile kitchen and fresh food into the classroom. Under the guidance of a professional chef, students can cook a wholesome and tasty meal. In nutrition workshops for third and fourth-graders, schoolchildren receive a playful introduction to the "ABCs of healthy eating".

We also offer a hands-on “Eat the rainbow” activity to teach kindergarten children about the topic. Plus, we have a puppet theatre that performs plays about healthy eating, environmental protection and good table manners.

Suggestions and requests can be addressed to us through the food committee or board in your day care centre or school, or directly through our service center. After careful consideration, we are pleased to implement new ideas.

We encourage you to talk to your childcare management if you would like to have a say in the choice of caterers or to pass on your wishes to us.

The situation is different for low-income families, whose costs for school lunches are covered by government subsidies.
