WHAT YOU RECEIVE

• One editable .xlsx bakery calculator

• One PDF quick-start guide

• Both files packaged in one ZIP download

COMPATIBILITY

Microsoft Excel desktop provides the best experience. The .xlsx workbook can also be imported into Google Sheets. Review every tab and run the included sample quote after importing because spreadsheet applications can interpret formatting and dropdowns differently. Apple Numbers is not currently supported.

HOW TO USE IT

Download and extract the ZIP file, begin with the PDF guide and START HERE tab, replace the sample settings and ingredient prices, enter the recipe and order details, then review the calculated quote and customer-facing quote.

LICENSE

Purchase licenses the files to one buyer or one business for internal use. You may customize the workbook and create working or backup copies. You may not resell, redistribute, share, sublicense, publish, or use the files to create another product for sale.

IMPORTANT

This is a digital download; no physical product will be mailed. The workbook is a pricing aid, not accounting, tax, legal, financial, food-safety, or industry-specific professional advice. Results depend on the accuracy of the information entered.
