Frequently Asked Questions
What counts as overhead in a bakery batch?
Overhead includes utilities, packaging, rent allocation, and equipment depreciation attributed to the batch.
How much markup should I use?
Most bakeries target a 50-100% markup over total cost depending on local pricing and competition.
Should I include my own labor time?
Yes, always value your labor time at a fair hourly rate even if you're the one baking, otherwise you'll underprice your products.
