CrumbCost - Recipe Costing & Quote Tool
Finished, live recipe costing and quote tool for home bakers: batch cost, cost per item and a customer quote, all in the browser. Pre-launch, no traffic or revenue yet.
Description
Home bakers underprice because they never work out what a batch really costs. CrumbCost does it in a minute: enter the ingredient prices you actually pay, and it turns them into a batch cost, a cost per cookie, cake or cupcake, and a clean customer quote. It runs entirely in the browser, so recipes and prices stay on the user's device. WHAT YOU GET - A finished, live site: ingredient list with package size and price, recipes by weight, volume or count, labor and packaging costs. - Margin what-if: set a target margin and see the suggested price per item, or enter your own price and see the margin. - Customer-ready quote that shows only items, quantities and prices and hides internal costs. - Local-only storage with backup and restore. Currencies: INR, USD, GBP, EUR, AUD, CAD. - Mobile-first layout, a labeled demo mode, plus About, Privacy and Contact pages with a working contact email. - Costing math checked by hand on sample recipes. - Zero server cost: no backend, no database, nothing to maintain. WHY IT IS AN EASY YES - Launch-ready: nothing to build. Add a domain, a Pro tier or ads and go. - Clear niche: home bakers, cloud kitchens and small food sellers who quote by message. - Privacy angle: no sign-up, no data collected. - Simple to hand over: static front end, easy to understand and extend. MONETIZATION IDEAS (potential, not current income) - Pro tier: unlimited saved recipes, PDF quotes, cloud sync. - SEO pages per bake ("cookie cost calculator", "cake pricing calculator"). - Affiliate links to baking supplies and packaging. - Bundle with other small-business calculators. STATUS: Live and working. New project, pre-launch: no traffic, users or revenue yet. INCLUDED: full source code, the live site and a handover walkthrough. No custom domain is included (the site runs on a Vercel subdomain, which does not transfer).
How the escrow transaction works
- 1. Payment to escrow
You pay for the listing — funds go to an escrow account, not directly to the seller.
- 2. escrow_held — funds secured
Funds are locked. The seller transfers the domain, code and access.
- 3. in_inspection — inspection period (7 days)
Check the assets you received and confirm receipt to release the funds.
- 4. completed — funds released
Transaction complete. The business is now yours.
Funds are released to the seller only after you confirm receipt of the assets.
