Are you tired of guessing whether your restaurant’s food prices are on point? Do you ever feel like your recipes are costing you more than you thought, leaving you with less profit than you deserve? We get it – as a restaurant owner, pricing your dishes correctly is a balancing act between making your customers happy and making sure you can pay the bills at the end of the month.

If you’re ready to take control of your recipe pricing and boost your restaurant’s profits, this tool is for you! You can watch a detailed walkthrough of how the Food Cost Calculator works in the video below, or grab your own copy of the calculator from my shop today!

But here’s the good news: you don’t have to be a math whiz or hire an expensive consultant to nail your food cost calculations anymore. Introducing the Food Cost Calculator – the ultimate Excel tool that makes recipe pricing easier than ever. It’s like having a personal accountant, but without the awkward small talk.

Main Features of the Food Cost Calculator:

1. A Summary Sheet That Does the Heavy Lifting

Why make it complicated when you can keep it simple? Our Summary Sheet does all the hard work for you by gathering all your recipe data in one place. You’ll see exactly how much each recipe costs, how much profit you’re making, and whether you’re charging enough. Think of it as your financial crystal ball—except it’s much more accurate and way less mystical.

2. Clear, Simple Instructions (No PhD Required)

Not a spreadsheet expert? No problem! The Food Cost Calculator comes with clear, easy-to-follow instructions on how each sheet works. You won’t need a degree in Excel to get started, just a few clicks and you’re good to go. Plus, it’s so user-friendly you could probably do it blindfolded (we don’t recommend it, though).

3. Pre-Built Recipe Samples to Steal…I Mean, Learn From

Starting from scratch is hard. So, we’ve included two sample sheets with built-in recipes for your reference. Think of these as the “cheat codes” for recipe pricing. Copy them, tweak them, and before you know it, your recipes will be priced like a pro.

4. Blank Recipe Sheet: Time to Get Creative

Got a new dish you want to add to the menu? The blank recipe sheet allows you to create new recipes from scratch with zero hassle. Just plug in your ingredients, quantities, and voilà – the calculator does the math for you. It’s like a magic potion, but with fewer frogs and more spreadsheets.

5. Ingredients Sheet: Know the Real Cost of Your Ingredients

Are your ingredient costs sneaking up on you like a ninja in the night? The Ingredients Sheet lets you input the real cost of each product you use, so you’re never caught off guard by price hikes. This sheet ensures you’re always working with the most accurate cost data, keeping your margins sharp and your wallet happy.

6. Unit of Measure Conversion Sheet: Because Not All Units Are Created Equal

Not every ingredient is sold in the same unit of measure. One supplier sells flour in pounds, another in kilograms—chaos, right? Not anymore. With the Unit of Measure Conversion Sheet, you can easily convert measurements to match your recipe’s needs. Whether you’re working with ounces, grams, or teaspoons of magic, this sheet keeps things running smoothly.
