Price your bakes properly — ingredients, packaging AND your time — so every order actually pays you. The tool home bakers need: it makes you charge for the hours you forget to count.
Cake pricing goes wrong in one predictable place: the hours. This calculator puts ingredients, packaging, decorations and your time in one place, builds in your hourly rate and overheads, and works out a suggested price and price-per-slice that actually pays you.
It makes you charge for the hours you forget to count — the levelling, the flowers, the delivery.
Home bakers and small bakeries taking orders. If you've ever finished a celebration cake and realised you earned £2 an hour, this sheet is the fix. A worked example is built in.
