Take control of your business and create products with sufficient profit margins; margins that allow you to grow and scale your business.

Definitions:

• Product: The combination of your recipe + items + packaging

• Add-On: Ingredients added on to your items (i.e. sprinkles, coating, nuts, etc)

• Item: An item is a portion of your recipe. For example, one batch of cookie dough makes 10 cookies, which equals 10 items. A single recipe can have multiple items that vary in size and/or flavor.

This article will show you how to add your products and connect them to your recipes, items, and packaging to get your products' cost and profit.

In this article:

1. Add your product name and price

2. Add product image

3. Connect your product's recipes and items

4. Connect your product's packaging

5. Saving your product

Add your product name and price
