I have opened a chocolate truffles business and have sold wholesale for a while. I am looking in to starting selling retail as well. I need to figure out the nutritional information on the product I am selling. Is there a good software for this task that you would recommend?

Are you going to be selling more than 10,000 units per year? If not, you don't legally need the nutrition info on the label.

I have interest by some large chain stores so that is a possibility. I would rather play it safe and get my packaging set up done once and not have to adjust later.

You might want to look at a piece of software called NutraCoster.

Many states have a program that will analyze your foods and give you the information from contents to packaging recommendations. North Carolina costs $50 per item.This takes some work but you can assemble the data through the governments website: http://www.nal.usda.gov/fnic/foodcomp/search/ It's going to be relative, not absolute.Doing some searching on nutritional data comes up with a few other sites that require membership (gen. free) that you can assemble your recipes for nutritional breakdown.

"@joe-john, I'd like to weigh in on this.  First, some of the nutritional info you post there is reasonable, some is not -- and that's not unusual...."
