Recipe costing, scaling and nutrition

Enter a recipe once and Cookara prices it from your ingredients. Scale it to any batch or pan and see cost, calories and allergens per piece. Import recipes from a photo, a PDF or text with AI.

Ingredient prices that stay current

Your ingredient library holds price, pack size, nutrition and unit conversions. Update prices by hand, from a shop receipt or with an AI estimate. Every recipe cost follows.

Batch weight and allergens, added up

Every recipe adds up its own weight from the ingredients, and the total rescales with the yield. Allergens are collected from the ingredient records, and a copy-ready ingredient list is there for your labels.

Plan your baking week

Put recipes and orders on a production calendar with the amounts to make. Cooking mode scales every step to the batch and ticks off what is done.

Real feedback from Cookara users

Add recipes from a screenshot in seconds

"I've already added more than five recipes. I love that I can import from a screenshot or a PDF — it recognises everything perfectly, and now I can calculate cost in seconds."

I finally found the gap in my costing

"Pure wow so far — especially the screenshot import. I have a ridiculous number of recipe screenshots on my phone, and now they're all finally in one place. Costing is so much easier, and I finally spotted where my numbers were off."

Costing without the data entry

"AI recipe import is a game-changer. Cost calculation was my main reason for picking Cookara, but skipping the ingredient typing on top of that? Just brilliant."
