Ever priced a cake by guessing, then realized the butter ate the profit? Most home and cottage bakers do. BakeValue adds up what a bake actually costs you: ingredients, your time, your overheads, packaging. Then it prices it at the profit margin you want. Built for one-person bakeries: cottage bakers, weekend market stalls, custom cake orders, and anyone tired of rebuilding the same spreadsheet. YOUR TIME AND OVERHEADS, PAID FOR

• Set your hourly rate once, and turn your monthly overheads and utilities into a cost per bake
• Both land on every recipe automatically, so the price covers your work and your kitchen, not just flour and sugar INGREDIENTS, COSTED PER GRAM
• Enter pack price and pack size once, BakeValue does the per-unit math
• Grams, kilograms, ounces, pounds, milliliters, liters, tsp, tbsp, cups, or units, mixed freely across a recipe
• Track remaining stock and expiration dates, with low and expiring items surfaced automatically RECIPES THAT NEST
• Build a recipe from your ingredients, and drop a sub-recipe (buttercream, ganache, pastry cream) inside a bigger one

QUESTIONS BAKERS ASK Do I need a subscription? No. BakeValue is free to use, and Pro is bought once and owned forever. I do not know my hourly rate. Can I still use it? Yes. Start with any number that feels fair for your time, price a few bakes, and adjust. Seeing the number move is usually what settles it. How do I work out what to charge? Pick the margin you want and BakeValue works backwards to a price. Or type the price you had in mind and see what it actually leaves you. Does it handle cups and grams together? Yes. Enter each ingredient in whatever unit its packaging uses and measure in whatever unit your recipe uses. The app converts between them for you. Can I price a recipe that uses another recipe? Yes. Sub-recipes nest, so your buttercream is costed once and reused everywhere. Does it work offline? Yes. Everything is calculated on device. iCloud sync is optional and private. What about my data? It is yours. Export it whenever you like and nothing is ever sent to us. Is my customer or sales data shared with anyone? Never. There is no server, no ad network, and no analytics in the app. SUPPORT Have an idea or run into a problem? Find us at privacy-dxb.pages.dev/support.
