Cottage Food Pricing Calculator

Price Your Cottage Food Products for Profit

Home-based food businesses have real costs: ingredients, packaging, labels, market booths and your time. This calculator figures your true cost per item and the price you need to make a profit. Free, no email needed.

Start with your cost per item, add your labor, then add profit. Enter your numbers above to see a price that works.

Most states require labels on cottage food items, and the rules vary by state. Check your state's cottage food rules for what to include.

Not always. Market booth fees and shipping costs are different, so price each channel to cover its own costs.

Shanna D makes custom labels and stickers starting at just 25, so your products look professional.
