Reviews for CakeCost
← Back to CakeCost5 stars because it's very useful. Trying to understand the numbers fully. It would be nice if you could manually enter new ingredients.
Easy to use app. It would be very useful to be able to add the cost of electric/gas, cake boxes, boards etc
It looks like it would be easy to use and work well but when I get to the cost portion of the recipe it just shows a blank white page and I can't do anything else.
Seems easy to use so far. Just confused when I set how many servings a recipe makes, but then the app shows a different number for the batch amount. 🤔
I can't believe an app this good is free. Very easy to use, takes any guesswork out of the equation. I downloaded to use for a fundraiser I'm participating in, and have found this invaluable!
Easy use app. Prices adapt as you put in new prices. So adjust your labeling if you buy a higher quality chocolate, lable it ____ chocolate, instead of just chocolate and it won't change the regular chocolate's price.
Ok I get the general idea. however it's usless to me because it wont let me change the units etc for me to get the exact break now, the amounts are calculatimg way too high. then, the premium plan apparently isnt working or unavailable. I'm not able to pay not even seeing a area to do such.
decent app but ridiculous you have to pay to edit price changes on ingredients! it's not realistic to go into EVERY recipe and adjust pricing when ingredient costs change.
This is a great app for a phone or tablet. However, I do a lot of work on my PC. I don't see that they have an app for the PC.
What's the point of creating an account if it doesn't save your recipes when getting a new phone? I lost hours of work. It is a handy little cost calculator for the short term, but is very unreliable if you're running a business.
Fantastic app. Love how easy it is to use and that everything is saved and broken down. A feature that I'd love is for them to add a packaging cost option to the breakdown as well
I like that the app calculates the cost but is time consuming due to manually adding each recipe. It would be great to be about to download the recipes. It would also be great to be able to generate a grocery list
Easy to input recipes, wish there was just a general profit % that went into all recipes just like the ingredients, and a way to put in overall overhead costs (a calculator for these would probably be helpful for many as well) that would evenly distribute across all recipes as well.
Nice useful app, but can improve. Easy to create/edit recipes and see how much each batc/unit cost, but you can't delete recipes (even though there's a deleted recipes folder). You can click on the menu tab and see all your ingredients with costs and which recipes they're used in, but you can't change the ingredient package sizes or price on the ingredient itself. The app would be much more user friendly if you could edit your ingredient list. Can't sort recipes into folders.
This app is amazing! I've tried many apps, and nothing comes close to this one. Down to the penny, it calculates ingredients, labor cost, overhead, etc. I love how it breaks down the ingredient cost without me having to do the math. I HIGHLY recommend this app to everyone.
Easy to use app with straight forward functionality. It gives me what I needed in order to compute cost easily. I would recommend this highly especially if you are a small homebusiness with limited tools to use. I've given some recommendations for enhancement but as it stands now, it does the job well. Well done!
Love that you can put in the total cost of an ingredient to purchase and then cakecost will break it down into the cost for how much you need for each recipe. It tells you how much for each, and how much for the batch. Once you edit an ingredient cost, it updates they all of your recipes. It also lets you include your labor, amount of time needed, overhead and profit. I love it !!!
Hi! I just started using CakeCost and it's amazing. But here is the problem ; when I set ingredients' prices of one recipe, the ingredients prices of a previous recipe change according to the new one. I buy ingredients for different prices every time and I would like to know exactly how every recipe costed every time. I would appreciate it very much if you could work on keeping every recipe ingredients prices separated. Thank you!
No ads whatsoever. Super useful, easy to use, simple UI, just need a little more efficiency such as maybe an option to use universal overhead cost or even better an overhead cost calculator 😂 and general profit percentage. Wanted to upgrade to premium to be able to use folder feature but it says premium is unavailable. Overall great, this app is exactly what I need.
