Portion Margin

Portion Margin helps bakers, home cooks, makers, and food sellers price custom orders from real inputs. Build reusable recipes, add ingredient package costs, include labor and other expenses, review a calculated quote before sharing it with a customer. Portion Margin keeps internal costing details separate from customer-facing quote text, so you can work through pricing clearly without exposing ingredient costs, labor, overhead, formulas, or margins. Use Portion Margin to: Create and save reusable recipes Add recipe cover photos and direction step photos Add ingredient package prices and used amounts Convert ingredient costs into per-recipe totals Use measurement conversions, including cups, ounces, and custom conversions you define Include labor, packaging, delivery, overhead, utilities, and custom extras Set target margin for quote calculations Review recipe costs, shopping lists, and quote readiness before sharing Save quote history for repeat orders Manage clients, customer contacts, saved orders, follow-ups, schedules, statuses, and recurring order details Resume in-progress quote drafts Reuse past orders as templates Prepare customer-safe quote text for copy, text, email, or sharing Create invoice PDF documents for customer orders Create cookbook PDFs from saved recipes Create and share shopping lists from recipes and quote needs Import ingredient cost profiles with review and repair tools Create manual iCloud backups and restore from backup when needed Export and import a full app data archive, including recipes, ingredient costs, saved orders, client records, settings, and media Store local business details and quote defaults for faster repeat workflows Portion Margin is designed for local-first recipe costing, recipe organization, client tracking, and order quoting. It is useful for custom cakes, baked goods, meal prep, catering items, handmade food products, and other recipe-based orders where ingredient amounts, time, and order costs matter. The app focuses on transparent calculations based on the values you enter. It does not provide tax, accounting, legal, food-safety, or financial advice, and it does not guarantee business outcomes. You stay in control of your costs, assumptions, quote wording, documents, and final customer price.
