I will create a recipe costing and menu pricing calculator for your restaurant or cafe
About this Gig
Know exactly what every dish costs: I build you a recipe costing and menu pricing workbook that shows the cost per portion and food cost % for every dish on your menu.
I am FCCA and a cost analyst. I build practical recipe costing and menu pricing workbooks for restaurants, takeaways, caterers, bakers and food brands.
What you receive:
- Ingredient price list with pack sizes and unit costs
- Recipe cards with portion cost and food-cost %
- Sell price calculated from your own target margin
- Menu sheet with gross and contribution margin by item
- Premium: menu engineering view and simple margin dashboard
- Clean, editable Excel (Google Sheets on request)
What I need from you:
Menu or recipe list, ingredient supplier prices and pack sizes, portion sizes and current selling prices if any.
What this is not:
- Workbook build only. Not tax, accounting or financial advice.
- Not a substitute for your accountant.
