A food cost calculator for people who cook for money: build the recipe, see cost per serving and food cost %, and get a suggested sell price from your target FC% — offline, for solo chefs and food trucks. Not a $30/mo kitchen suite.
Know your food cost before the menu goes to print — without inventory modules, ordering, or a POS integration.
Ingredients priced by the pack, portioned by the recipe. Cost per serving updates as you type.
Set a target food cost % and every dish shows the menu price that hits it. Green when you're on target.
Cost the aioli once — it flows into every dish that uses it, by the spoonful.
Edit an ingredient price and see which recipes it touches — margins never drift silently.
Copy a dish to build the next one, or scale a batch ×2 for catering — the math follows.
No account, no server, no analytics. Your recipes and prices stay on your phone.
Pack price in, unit cost out. Once per ingredient.
Portions, preps and servings — cost per serving live.
Target FC% gives the suggested sell. Print with confidence.

No. FoodMargin is a food cost calculator — recipe cost cards, food cost % and menu pricing only. No inventory counts, no ordering, no POS. Deliberately smaller and cheaper than a $30/mo suite.
Cost per serving divided by your target food cost %. Set a 30% target and a $2.05 plate suggests $6.84 — adjust the target per dish if you like.
Yes. Everything — ingredients, recipes, costing, export — runs on the phone. A walk-in cooler or a festival pitch with no signal changes nothing.
Five recipes with everything included: nested prep, yields, and the suggested sell price. Pro removes the recipe cap and the watermark on exported cost cards.
Cost per serving, food cost %, and the sell price that hits your target — offline, on your phone.
