I will develop and refine your cookie, cake or dessert recipe
Helly Phan
About this gig
Struggling to turn a homemade recipe into a product ready for commercial production? I can help.
I'm a food R&D professional with hands-on experience in the F&B and FMCG industry, specializing in formulation refinement for baked goods, cookies, cakes, and desserts. I help small businesses and startups take an existing recipe and improve it whether that means better texture, balanced sweetness, lower ingredient cost, or preparing it for larger-batch production.
How I work:
- You share your current recipe and goals
- I review it and propose a refined version with clear explanations for each change
- You test it on your end and share feedback (taste, texture, appearance)
- I revise based on your results included revisions vary by package
What you'll get:
A clear, written formulation document (ingredients, ratios, and reasoning) you can hand directly to your kitchen or production team.
What's not included:
Lab-based shelf-life testing, food safety certification, or regulatory/labeling compliance. Happy to point you toward next steps for these if needed.
Let's talk about your product, message me before ordering if you'd like to discuss scope first!

FAQ
Do I need to have a base recipe already?
Yes, this service is best for refining an existing recipe (homemade or early-stage). If you're starting from scratch, message me first so we can discuss scope
Do you test the recipe yourself before sending it back?
I design formulations based on food science principles, but since I work remotely, you'll need to test-bake the recipe on your end and share feedback for me to refine it further
Does this include shelf-life testing or food safety certification?
No, this package covers formulation and documentation only. I'm happy to point you toward next steps for lab testing or certification if needed
What format will I receive the final recipe in?
A written formulation document with ingredients, ratios, and process notes — ready to hand off to your kitchen or production team.
Can you help with recipes outside of cookies, cakes, or desserts?
My focus is baked goods and desserts. If your product is outside this area, message me first to confirm I'm a good fit
Can you calculate ingredient costs (BOM) for my recipe?
Yes, you'll provide the price of each ingredient based on your local suppliers, and I'll calculate the cost breakdown per batch/unit. If the cost is too high, I can also suggest ingredient substitutions to help optimize it, based on what's available to you
