Know your costs. Price with confidence. See your real profit.

Running a catering business takes more than great food. You also need to cost your ingredients, price your menu, send clear quotes, and track whether each event actually made money.

The Caterer Quote & Profit Calculator – Premium v2 is an Excel toolkit that keeps all of this in one place.

What you can do:

• Cost ingredients and recipes, including waste
• Price your menu from your real costs and a target profit margin
• Estimate event costs: food, labor, transport, rentals, packaging, décor, overhead, and contingency
• See cost per guest and projected profit
• Create itemized client quotes with deposits and balances
• Track payments and compare estimated vs. actual costs
• Review your numbers on a visual dashboard

What’s included:

• Blank workbook for your own business
• Completed sample workbook with illustrative figures
• Quick Start Guide (PDF)
• Built-in instructions and quality-control notes

Perfect for: home-based caterers, independent caterers, small catering businesses, event food vendors, and personal chefs.

Good to know: Excel (.xlsx) digital download. One event per workbook copy. The currency selector changes the label only and does not convert exchange rates. This is a costing and tracking tool, not accounting, tax, or financial advice.
