What BatterBee solves

The paperwork side of baking usually lives in too many places.

Orders sit in messages. Recipes live in notebooks. Ingredient planning happens from memory. Costing gets guessed. BatterBee brings those moving parts together so you can see what is booked, what it will cost, what needs buying, and what needs your attention next.

BatterBee is designed for home bakers and small cake businesses handling real orders. It pulls the day-to-day admin into one workspace so you are not constantly switching between messages, notebooks, ingredient lists, and gut-feel pricing.

01

One place for the order book

Orders, recipes, ingredients, costing, enquiries, and planning finally work together instead of living in separate tools.

02

Less scrambling, more baking

See upcoming work, low-stock ingredients, shopping needs, and the next priority before the week starts to feel messy.

Booked

Know what is already in hand, what is due, and what needs attention this week.

Ready

See what it should cost, what is running low, and what needs buying before you prep.

Useful

Keep the same workspace open while you are quoting, planning, and baking.

What BatterBee helps you do

A full bakery workspace, shaped around the rhythm of a real baking week.

BatterBee is not just a recipe vault or a tidy order tracker. It keeps the practical parts of a small bakery connected so you can see what is booked, what needs buying, what it should cost, and what deserves your attention next.

Cost Price cakes with more confidence

Respond Handle customer enquiries calmly

01 · Pantry and stock planning

Keep your pantry in step with the cakes you have actually booked.

Track ingredients, stock levels, low-stock alerts, and shopping needs in one place. BatterBee checks your pantry against upcoming bakes, so buying decisions feel planned rather than reactive.

  • Track pantry levels and minimum stock thresholds
  • Generate shortage-aware shopping lists from upcoming orders
  • Keep ingredient units aligned with costing and recipe usage

Know what to buy before the weekend rush creeps up on you.

02 · Recipes, variants, and costing

Build a recipe book that helps you price the cake and make the cake.

Keep recipe variants, timings, ingredients, steps, and cost assumptions together so the numbers stay close to the work. BatterBee helps you move from “roughly right” to “grounded enough to trust”, while still being useful at the counter when the baking actually starts.

  • Manage recipe variants by size and format
  • Connect ingredients directly to recipe usage
  • Keep step-by-step method notes close at hand while you work
  • See base costs before you quote a customer

Useful when you are quoting at the desk and when you are baking at the counter.

03 · Orders and customer workflow

Handle customer cakes from first enquiry through to collection day.

Orders, tiers, fillings, coatings, dates, notes, and customer details all live together in one calm flow. That means less inbox archaeology and fewer “where did I put that detail?” moments.

  • Track enquiries, confirmed orders, fulfilment, and handover
  • Manage tiered cakes and bakery-specific customisation details
  • Keep customer details attached to the work they requested

Run orders with the same care you put into the bake itself.

04 · Public storefront and enquiries

Share your cake range online and collect cleaner customer enquiries.

BatterBee can surface a simple customer-facing storefront, show starting-from prices, and collect order enquiries directly. Bakers can then review, reply, and convert them into real orders without re-entering everything from scratch.

  • Show selected cakes in a simple public storefront
  • Let customers send structured order enquiries online
  • Convert accepted enquiries into live orders in the app

Look more polished to customers without turning your bakery into a full ecommerce site.

05 · Dashboard, calendar, and reminders

See what matters this week without piecing it together from memory.

The dashboard, calendar, shopping view, and notification system work together to show due work, shortages, and the next thing that deserves attention. It is designed to reduce mental overhead, not add another noisy admin tool, so the app can stay open through the actual baking week rather than only during admin catch-up.

  • Get a clear dashboard view of priorities and upcoming work
  • Track orders and custom events on a bakery calendar
  • Receive in-app and email reminders when work is approaching

From enquiry to mixing bowl, the important things stay in one workspace.

FAQ

A few practical questions, answered simply.

Can I let customers enquire online?
Yes. BatterBee includes a simple storefront and enquiry flow so customers can browse your cakes, request a bake, and send through the important details without turning your site into a full ecommerce shop.
Does it help with ingredient planning?
Yes. BatterBee connects recipes, stock, and upcoming orders so missing items surface before your next shopping run becomes rushed. You can see shortages, plan purchases, and keep your pantry tied to real order demand.
Can I see what is coming up this week?
Yes. The dashboard and calendar help you keep an eye on due orders, custom events, and what needs attention next, so the week feels easier to plan and less likely to ambush you.
Can I follow recipe steps while I bake?
Yes. Recipes are stored as working documents with step-by-step instructions, ingredients, variants, and timings, so you can keep the app open on a tablet while you are actually making the cake.
Does BatterBee help me work out what my bakes actually cost?
Yes. BatterBee connects recipes, ingredients, and pricing assumptions so you can see what a bake is costing before you price it for a customer, rather than guessing from memory.
