Recipe Cost Card System

Stop pricing dishes by gut feel and recosting recipes by hand every time an invoice changes. Update an ingredient price once and every recipe card, plate cost and dashboard number updates with it.

What is inside

• An ingredient master with more than 50 kitchen items and yield percent for trim and loss
• Ten standardized recipe cost cards with per-portion cost and a suggested price
• Actual food cost percent against target on every card, in green or red
• Method steps, plating notes and allergens on each card
• A recipe index with every margin on one page and a cost dashboard
• A scaling calculator that takes a recipe from 4 to 250 portions

Who it is for

Chefs and kitchen managers who want standardized recipes and costs that stay current.

How it works

Built in Excel with 15 sheets. Load your ingredients first, then build each recipe. Our food cost calculator is a quick way to sanity-check one plate.
