@kaycue·1dWhat's your best-selling bake?
Tell me what sells fastest for you, and what you charge for it.
I'll reply with an honest take on whether the price covers your time. 🍪

@kaycue·4dNew: BakeTag Lite is free 🍪
You can now use BakeTag's price calculator for free.
BakeTag Lite works out your real cost per bake (ingredients, packaging, your time, overheads), gives you 3 prices, flags common allergens and prints a sticker sheet.
Grab it in the sidebar → 🆓 Free Worksheet + BakeTag Lite.
When you want all 4 label styles, 4 shapes, saved bakes and the menu card, the full BakeTag is in the store, and BAKER40 still gives 40% off until 30 Oct.

@kaycue·5dWhat goes on a good bake label?
✔ Your shop name
✔ What it is (and one tasty line)
✔ Weight
✔ Ingredients, with allergens made obvious
✔ Best before
✔ How to store it
✔ How to order again (handle or number)
The last one is the one most bakers forget, and it's the one that brings repeat orders.
(Rules differ by country, so always check your local food-labelling rules.)

@kaycue·Oct 3The "£1 a cookie" trap
If a cookie costs you 60p in ingredients and you sell it for £1, it feels like 40p profit.
But add the box and sticker (15p) and your time (2 hours ÷ 24 cookies at £8/hour = 67p each).
Real cost: £1.42. Every sale at £1 loses you 42p.
Price from your real cost, not from the ingredients.

Watch BakeTag price a cookie in 40 seconds
Brown Butter Cookie: ingredients, packaging and 2.5 hours of my time. BakeTag says the real cost is about $1.97 each, so the recommended price is $4.92.
The video shows the whole thing: typing the recipe, allergens flagged, labels made, menu card ready.

@kaycue·Sep 29Tip: "Label your allergens"
Selling bakes? Clear allergen labels protect your customers and your reputation.
BakeTag flags milk, egg, wheat, peanut, tree nuts, soy and sesame from your ingredient list, and you tap to confirm.
(Always check your local food-labelling rules.)

@kaycue·Sep 29Tip: "Your time is an ingredient"
2 hours baking + decorating + cleaning + replying to messages = real cost.
Real cost per unit = (ingredients + packaging + your hours × your rate + overheads) ÷ units.
Then add your margin. If the number surprises you, your old price was the problem.

Welcome to Proofed 🍪
Tools for home bakers who sell and are tired of guessing prices.
Start with the free worksheet and BakeTag Lite in the sidebar… "What does one bake really cost you?" Most bakers who fill it in find a cost they'd been forgetting, usually their own time.
Want it automatic? BakeTag does the maths and prints your labels.
