What a bowl really earns
You think you make ฿20 a bowl. Do you?
Your time counts.
The market run, the prep, the cooking and the selling. Six hours at ฿100 an hour is ฿12 a bowl.
Running costs count.
Gas, fuel and the stall cost money every hour you're open. Here that's ฿6 a bowl.
Takeaway costs more.
The bag and box go into the cost of every takeaway bowl.
Food you pour away is money lost. Log it in baht and see what it cost you.
These costs were always there. Add your hours and running costs once, and KamraiDee counts them in every bowl.

Adding 50% to the cost does not mean you keep 50%
How to price a dish: margin, not markup
Markup adds a share of the cost on top. With made-up numbers, a ฿50 plate plus 50% sells at ฿75 and leaves ฿25: a third of the price, not half.

Food and drink cost questions
Which food and drink shops does KamraiDee cover?
Six: cafés, restaurants, food trucks, caterers, confectionery, and bread and cake shops. Each has its own page with its own examples.
How do I calculate the food cost of one dish?
Enter each ingredient at the pack price you paid, shipping included, and say how many plates the pot makes. KamraiDee divides the pot's cost by the plates, so you see the true cost of one plate.
How do I cost a takeaway version of a dish?
Set it up as its own version of the dish, with the box added. The food cost stays the same and the box counts on top, so you see what the takeaway plate leaves you at your price.
Should I count kitchen time in the cost of a dish?
Yes. Your hours are not free. Add the minutes a recipe takes and your hourly rate, and KamraiDee shares that cost across the plates the pot makes. Leave it at ฿0 and every plate looks cheaper than it is.
Is KamraiDee free for food and drink shops?
Yes. KamraiDee is free to join, and every shop type gets the same app at the same price. See the pricing page at /pricing.
