WT CAFE.
A New Level of On-Site Dining.
Total Dining Experience
After years of menu development and refinement, Wholesome Tummies is excited to introduce a new level of service designed for schools with on-site kitchens. We now provide fresh, seasonally-inspired menus to K-12 students in a full-service dining atmosphere. Unlike many other on-site dining programs, we don't just heat and serve. Instead, we leverage existing kitchen facilities to cook our foods from scratch daily using only pure, delicious ingredients. Students (and staff) will taste the difference!
Customized Dining Needs
We get it! We understand that every student and every school community is unique. That is why WT Cafe offers a customizable dining program that fits your needs. Our menu offerings, pricing, and program logistics are flexible and designed for your dining facility and your community’s needs.
Our executive chef is available to review menus, provide nutrition education and assist communities that need to become more aware of dietary concerns such as allergies, celiac disease, childhood nutrition, and food sensitivities. Parents and students are welcome to tour the food service facility and their suggestions and feedback are always encouraged and appreciated.
Elevated Nutrition Standards
Our company was founded on one main principle – to nourish young minds with only the purest, freshest foods possible. We don’t take those words lightly. We scrutinize every ingredient down to the last syllable to ensure that each and every bite taken is providing superior taste and optimal nutrition. We test our items on countless kid testers before they reach the most critical tester of all – your students!
Passionate Culinary Team
We don’t believe in “Kids' Foods”. We believe in food for all. We believe that given the opportunity, all students can enjoy a wide array of tastes and flavors. Our talented Chefs understand that today’s kids don't want over-cooked green beans and canned corn. Our Chefs know how to bring out the flavor in vegetables, whole grains, and legumes, and they always encourage students to venture into new foods, tastes and flavor profiles. We feel that student education is part of our responsibility.
Ingredients for Success
We are experts in the nutrition and well-being of your children and are proud to openly share our ingredients. We prepare our foods fresh daily from scratch and never use processed foods, artificial flavors, artificial colors, M.S.G., preservatives, high fructose corn syrup, trans-fats nor high levels of sodium.
We use minimal amounts of fat in food preparations and use olive and canola oils, which have a healthier blend of fatty acids than other cooking oils. Many of our meats are antibiotic, hormone free and all are nitrate free. Our salad dressings are made from scratch using only the purest ingredients. Our soups? Well, you'll just have to taste them for yourself to see - but let's just say they taste just like Mom's!
Menu Variety
Vegetarian and Kosher menus are available. Gluten free, dairy free and Vegan items are featured weekly. Organic juices, milks and our signature fruit-infused water are available daily, in addition to seasonal fresh fruits and vegetables.
