Recipe Cost Calculator is the perfect tool for anyone in the hospitality industry. It is a superior piece of software that does its job above and beyond.

Pros

Recipe Cost Calculator helped me get organised and feel more confident and professional during the stressful time of opening a cafe. It is very easy to use and troubleshoot. [sensitive content hidden] is always evolving and improving the functionality plus he is personally there to help out if you need it. I highly recommend this calculator, it is a very valuable business tool.

Cons

I did not have any negative experience using Recipe Cost Calculator. Typing in all your ingredients individually takes time but that is to be expected because the details are so thorough and once it’s done it is set up for good. Changing from there is easy and having all the detailed info about each ingredient saves you time down the track when menu planning.

Response from Recipe Cost Calculator

Hi Peter,

Thanks so much for this review. Realizing that customers with thousands of ingredients and/or recipes was slowing down the interface we have drastically improved the performance, making it search-based and paginated instead of a single long list.

Overall performance viewing recipes and ingredients in long lists is now almost instantaneous, regardless of how many ingredients or recipes you have in your account.

Thanks again for the feedback!

Any time that we had any issue with the program, we were able to receive immediate help and solutions to the problems.
I sold the business and one of the biggest selling points for the buyer was that I was able to provide allergens and nutritional data for all of my recipes.

Pros

We found Recipe Cost Calculator extremely easy to set up and use. The ability to scale recipes based on different factors (the yield that we wanted to obtain most frequently, and sometimes having to scale based on ingredients that we were able to actually use!) quickly and easily was a life saver.

Cons

There were a few ingredients that we used in our recipes that were not "findable" in the nutrition database - this did slow us down somewhat but not to any great extent.
