How do you sell by weight and calculate food cost in a bakery or patisserie?

A bakery sells both by the piece and by the kilo, and the same dough goes into different products. Without a recipe per product, cost stays an estimate. With one, the system knows how much flour left on every sale, whether you sold a loaf or three hundred grams of cake.

  • Sale by the piece or by weight, with a scale at the till
  • A recipe per product, including semi-finished items
  • Food cost recalculated on every supplier price change
  • Daily production planning, based on previous sales
  • Waste tracking: unsold items at close
  • Event orders, with a deposit and a collection date

Challenges

  • You sell by weight, but the till isn't connected to the scale, so pricing errors happen at the counter.
  • You don't know the real food cost of a cake or a kg of sponge, so prices are set by guesswork.
  • Custom cake orders are jotted in a notebook and the deposit or delivery date gets forgotten.
  • Raw materials — flour, butter, eggs — run out unexpectedly, and waste is tracked nowhere.

With APPY

  • The POS reads the scale and calculates the price by weight automatically, with no counter errors.
  • The recipe module calculates food cost for every product and shows you the real margin instantly.
  • Cake orders go into a calendar with deposit, details and delivery date, visible to the whole team.
  • Every sale automatically deducts raw materials from stock, and consumption and waste are tracked in real time.

Features

Sell by weight & by scale

Sell sponge cakes, pastries, cookies or chocolates by the kilogram or by the piece. The POS connects to the scale and calculates the price automatically, with no manual entry at the till.

Recipes & food cost

Define the recipe for each product and APPY calculates the real ingredient cost and margin. See instantly which products are profitable and which recipes are eating your profit.

Custom cake orders

Take orders for cakes and platters with delivery date, deposit and personalization details. Nothing gets lost in a notebook, and the team sees exactly what needs preparing for each day.

Raw material stock & auto goods receipt

Track stock of flour, butter, eggs and packaging. Receiving against a supplier invoice generates the goods-receipt note automatically, and consumption is deducted from the recipe with every sale.

Loyalty & digital stamp cards

Turn neighborhood customers into loyal ones with points, digital stamp cards ("10th coffee free") and raffles — straight from your own branded app.

Central lab & multiple points of sale

Manage a central production lab and several storefronts from a single account. Recipes, prices and stock stay synced automatically, with consolidated reports per point of sale.

4

You analyze & optimize

See food cost, margins, best sellers and waste — and adjust recipes and prices based on real data.

Why cost control matters in a pastry shop

~30%
of a pastry shop's costs are raw materials — food cost control is essential
24-48h
short shelf life of fresh products demands rotation and precise stock
by weight
more and more customers buy pastry products by weight, not just by piece
