The problem

Most home bakers price by guesswork: ingredient costs live in receipts, orders live in messages, and nobody can say what a dozen cupcakes actually costs to make.

What it is

WhiskLedger helps solo home bakers connect recipe costing, pricing, orders, inventory, and business summaries in one practical system.

One connected system: cost a recipe once and pricing, orders, inventory, and the business summary stay in step with it.

Core capabilities

  • Recipe costing that tracks real ingredient prices
  • Pricing worked out from actual cost, not guesswork
  • Order tracking connected to inventory
  • A business summary that reflects the numbers you enter

Where it stands

WhiskLedger Starter is available on Etsy for $24. WhiskLedger Pro is available on Gumroad for $69.

Honest limits

  • A structured system, not accounting or tax software — it does not file or certify anything.
  • Built for one baker; it is not multi-user.
  • Your numbers are only as good as the prices you keep updated.
