Béchamel – a new home for tech foodies

Béchamel was an online food community driven by its members. At Béchamel, you could add and share your own recipes but also look at favorite ones submitted by other members. Another big part of the website was about organizing what to shop. If a member found a recipe she liked, she could add the ingredients to her own shopping list.
