Create a reusable recipe

Open New recipe

Go to Recipes & Costs > New recipe. Enter Recipe name, Makes, and What it makes. A yield of 12 and “cookies” is clearer than a vague “one batch.”

1. Add an ingredient group, such as Dough, Frosting, or Packaging.
2. Choose an ingredient or saved recipe for each component and enter Quantity and Unit.
3. Add another group when the preparation has distinct sub-recipes or public declaration sections.
4. Use Kitchen notes for internal preparation guidance.
5. Turn on Ready to use only after the recipe is complete, then select Save recipe.

You can save a draft with unresolved ingredients. The editor reports how many ingredients need review and explains that cost and price suggestions appear after matching is complete.

What customers see

Recipes are operational data by default. Customers see the separate storefront ingredient declaration only after you review and publish it through the product formulation editor.

Common problems

• The saved recipe cannot be selected: it may still be a draft; turn on Ready to use.
• Yield is wrong: recipe quantities and the What it makes unit define how product quantities scale.
• A recipe references itself: choose another saved recipe; cycles are blocked.
• Deleting feels risky: archive recipes; existing product references and cost history are retained.

Next steps

• Resolve ingredient prices and conversions
• Attach the recipe to a product
