CFIA Nutrition Fact Labels

MenuSano’s nutrition analysis software is in accordance with Canadian regulatory bodies, the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) and Health Canada.

As a Toronto-based tech company, MenuSano understands the importance of providing accurate nutrition labelling for your business.

This is why MenuSano uses government-regulated nutritional databases and complies with the latest food regulations.

Trusted Canada Health Database

Ingredients in the MenuSano online tool are sourced from the Canadian Nutrition File (CNF), a comprehensive database with 152 nutrients in over 5690 foods. The database helps you find values for essential nutrients and the nutrient values for specific foods solidifying MenuSano’s accuracy.

CFIA Requirements

Here are ways MenuSano adheres to the CFIA guidelines:

CFIA Rounding Rules

MenuSano’s nutrition labelling follows the rounding rules where nutrient values are rounded according to the Food and Drug Regulations (FDR).

CFIA DV Calculations

Calculating percent daily value is definitive with MenuSano. Our nutrition analysis software uses the latest DV calculations published by the CFIA to meet the 2021 deadline.

CFIA Nutrition Fact Labels

Choose among an extensive library of CFIA nutrition fact templates. From bilingual (French first and English first, English only, French only) to Sugar Alcohol (Keto) labels and cannabis edibles labels, MenuSano offers templates that suit your requirements. Available in a variety of dimensions in either PDF or JPG high resolution (300dpi).

In addition to following the CFIA guidelines, MenuSano has also had a third party review of our CFIA calculations, by a registered dietician: Weiler Nutrition

The Proof is in The Pudding

“I’m very fascinated with the possibilities and opportunities that MenuSano provides. If I’m making something cholesterol-free, I can show the nutritional analysis with MenuSano. If I want to balance calories, I can swap out regular milk with coconut milk, and then add oatmeal. It’s great to be able to see what I’m creating and its benefits to the body.”

“The right product for the right application! Our business was at a standstill until we could sort out our nutrition labeling requirements. MenuSano's software was so easy to use, we were into production of our nutritional labels in minutes, no small feat! When we were obtaining our food safety certifications for Township 27, nutrition labeling became necessary. We were unsure of where to start or what to do. Many of the websites we researched claimed to provide all the answers and quite frankly didn't. Then we found MenuSano! MenuSano delivered on all fronts; nutrition labeling, ingredient sourcing, and all kinds of applications we hadn't even thought of. Sooo intuitive and easy to use, not sure where we would be without them!”

"Sending our recipes to a nutritionist, or out to a lab and having to wait three weeks for results is timely. I am constantly changing my recipes in general to improve them. Instead of using timely and costly methods to provide consumers with our product’s information, we use MenuSano, a web-based nutritional calculator. It really has made this journey easier for me".

"Simple Interface, Good Feature Set, Excellent Price. Very easy to use, and comes with a short tutorial. Like the ability to be able to access Canadian Nutrient File data and to incorporate actual manufacturer nutritional information into recipe analysis. Nutrition Facts panel generation from a recipe helps to make the outcome very professional looking.”

"MenuSano allows us to calculate our recipes with accuracy and instantly, it checks potential variations in the recipe. For instance, if we notice one item in development might be slightly higher in calories, salt, or other factors than we would like, we can make the necessary changes. This has allowed us to provide much more accurate information in our food items".

"The one thing we were surprised to find out is how much sodium our recipes contain. We thought we used minimal salt but Menusano helped us discover that some of our recipes contained a surprising amount, which made us change some of our recipes”

The best software by far for food companies. This software saved me. I had a deadline and the person I usually get to do my nutritional was not available. Thanks to this software, we will be doing it all ourselves from now on.
