Recipe Cost Calculator
See your true cost per item and find your perfect price
01
Enter your ingredients once. Crumb Coach does the rest.
Add your ingredients and what you paid for them. Crumb Coach calculates your cost-per-unit, your batch yield, and your true cost per item — automatically. Update a price when flour goes up and everything recalculates.
02
You'll finally know your real margin.
That sourdough you sell for $12 — do you know what it actually costs to make? Most bakers guess low. Crumb Coach shows you the ingredient cost, what you're making per loaf, and your profit margin as a percentage. No spreadsheet required.
03
Batch size stops being a guessing game.
Scaling a recipe for a big order? Crumb Coach scales your costs automatically. You'll know exactly what a batch of 48 croissants costs to make before you commit to the price — not after you've already invoiced.
04
AI pricing suggestions give you a starting point.
Crumb Coach can suggest a price based on your costs and a target margin. It's a starting point, not a rule — you always decide what you charge. But it's a lot easier to price when you're starting from data instead of instinct.
05
Recipe costing and your menu stay connected.
When a recipe is costed, that data flows into your menu. Your storefront prices, your quotes, your invoices — they're all working from the same numbers. Change a cost, and the ripple goes where it needs to.
06
You'll stop undercharging. Probably immediately.
This isn't a guess — it's what happens to almost every baker who runs their numbers for the first time. The good news is you'll know exactly what to charge going forward, and why.
True cost analysis
The price you charge should be based on what something costs. Not what feels right.
Crumb Coach breaks down every recipe into ingredient cost, yield per batch, cost per unit, and profit margin. You can see exactly where your money is going — and where you have room to breathe.
