## What is Sparchef?

Great meals start with great deals

Sparchef flips the usual routine: instead of picking a recipe first and shopping at full price, it creates personalised recipes from your favourite supermarkets' current weekly offers. You plan your meals around real deals – and often save 10–20% on groceries.

HOW IT WORKS
• Pick your stores: tell us where you shop – Lidl, REWE, EDEKA, Kaufland, Penny, Netto, ALDI SÜD and many more. From then on, Sparchef works only with their current offers – no more flipping through leaflets.
• Set your preferences: vegetarian, low carb, family cooking or meal prep – you decide what goes into your recipes and what stays out.
• Swipe instead of pondering: browse fresh recipe ideas built from real offers. Thumbs up to cook it, the rest is gone.
• Shopping list? Already done: every ingredient at the cheapest offer price, sorted for your next shopping trip.

WHY SPARCHEF
• Real offers, real savings: every ingredient shows which store has it on sale right now – no coupon chaos.
• Personal, not random: Sparchef learns over time which meals, ingredients and diets you prefer.
• Decided in seconds: from offer to finished weekly plan with shopping list.

FITNESS & NUTRITION GOALS
High protein, low carb, losing weight or building muscle: Sparchef finds meals from current offers that match your macros and goals – fast, cheap and without planning stress. It specifically looks for high-protein deals like chicken, skyr, eggs, tuna or quark.

SPARCHEF PREMIUM
Get more out of it: extra Sparpicks, extended diets, ingredient and allergy exclusions, calorie and macro goals, plus access to all products of your selected stores.

Download Sparchef for free and discover new meals from your favourite stores' offers every week – cooking on a budget has never been easier.

Note: Sparchef currently covers supermarket offers in Germany.
