Healthier food from an early age

DUCASSE Conseil’s partner Elior, France’s leading contract catering operator, wanted to make some adjustments to improve the culinary identity in its Education market (from daycare to university). We helped them adapt the cooking methods in their central production kitchens to put the emphasis back on taste, and create a culinary certification with strict criteria for quality and taste.

Our approach

  • 01

    Recipes creation

    DUCASSE Conseil develops recipes that uphold the commitment to quality and the commercial promise made for the new central kitchen in Rueil-Malmaison: simple to execute, bold in flavor, tailored to guests’ expectations, elegantly plated without unnecessary artifice, and respectful of the required cost structure. Designed with a sustainable approach, these recipes incorporate low-carbon proteins, a balance of cereals and legumes, as well as adapted nutritional balance. The DUCASSE Conseil team is also responsible for creating festive menus in the same philosophy.
