Costs makers often forget
- Ingredients across the full recipe, not per slice
- Decorations: sprinkles, sugar work, edible print
- Boards, dowels and cake drums
- Boxes, ribbons and tags
- Preparation and mise-en-place
- Baking and cooling
- Decorating and finishing
- Cleaning time and consumables
- Spoilage, test bakes and rejected pieces
A simple worked example
A dozen decorated cookies
If a dozen decorated cookies uses about 5 of ingredients, 1 of packaging and takes 3 hours to bake and decorate at 20 per hour, that is around 66 of direct cost. The calculator turns that into a retail price at your target margin, after any marketplace fees.
