'Marley Spoon' is a subscription service that provides recipes for large families. For many busy families, finding time to eat a meal together can be extremely challenging. This [recipe box delivery service](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/momofuku-and-milkbar) is specifically designed to help families enjoy a delicious meal at home.

Although Marley Spoon was initially targeted at single consumers with busy schedules, the company soon noticed a large number of families taking advantage of the service. In order to accommodate its changing customer base, Marley Spoon began providing recipes for large families. Now the service provides a weekly box plan that family members can customize to meet their specific needs and dietary preferences. Each box features fresh ingredients and [family-friendly recipes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/familyfriendly-frozen-meals) that are designed to please children and adults alike.

The new service provides a hassle-free dinner solution for busy families.
