Hi! I’m Jessie, baking from my home in Michigan. I love baking breads and pastries, and I am obsessive about a good bagel! I’ve been hobby baking and dreaming of a bakery for years; my cottage bakery is new this year and I’m excited to see it grow! I’m hoping butterbase can help keep me organized as we grow, and help me set prices based on actual data rather than vibes alone ( my current process). Fun fact: I teamed up with a friend and we took a leap of faith and joined our small city’s farmers market for the summer!
Hello
Olivia here from Arkansas
I like to bake sourdough and love cookies
I am a hobbyist hoping to expand to selling goods. I just opened a roadside farm stand last week, so hoping that takes off
Pic of some sourdough rolls that were absolutely delicious !
Hi, I’m Jada! I’m based in South Jersey, and I love to make cupcakes, cakes, and cookies. I am currently just a hobbyist, but I think Butterbase could provide what I would need to turn it into a small business
Hello, I’m Will,
I’m a cottage baker from the state of Michigan and the process of starting a business legally as an LLC .
I don’t really specialize in anything cuz I’m just starting off I mostly make cookies right now.
I’m between a hobbyist and a professional I love baking but I’m turning this into an actual business.
I’m hoping butter base helps me keep track of my expenses and prices for everything and help me keep inventory if possible.
I just created my first what I call a flirt muffin or flirt cake it’s a what is called a “Slutty brownie” but it’s in the shape of a muffin with homemade vanilla buttercream, and I’m not a big fan of it’s original name so I’ve renamed it to flirt cake
Hey there!
My name is Meagan, and I’m from Texas! I mostly bake cookies, but also make a variety of sweet treats and breads. I’m an in-between. I’m hoping it makes calculating my COP better to further help my pricing.
Hi Im Kai! Im from Mesa, Arizona. I really bake about any thing but mostly cookies. I find baking is a good coping mechanism for me but everyone in my life says i should start a side business with it. I hoping butterbase will help me with calculating the brake down of cost. Recently i used royal icing for the first time for my sister pride and prejudice themed birthday.
Hello my name is Ashley and I am Baking from Montana USA! I submitted my cottage food application a week about and will be selling Cake Pops locally at festivals and Markets.
Hi! Amny here. Baking in Canada, I specialize in cronuts! I have a diploma in pastry arts and have been in the field for 7+ years.
I suck at costing and it feels like such a chore. Butter base seems so simple and straight forward so I’m exciting to start as a starter and hopefully jump into a higher tier when I get the ball rolling.
My names is Beks - I’m from England (I live in a little village in Buckinghamshire)
I specialise in gluten-free baking
I’m a hobbyist in the process of setting up a honesty stand (bread shed) outside my home
I’m hoping Butterbase can help me with pricing my products so I’m making a decent profit as gluten-free ingredients tend to be more expensive, and also there’s not many people providing gluten-free options (the supermarket gluten-free bread is rubbish!)
I’m currently loving baking gluten-free focaccia
I am from Texas. Mainly like to bake some simple cookies. Still a noob. I discovered this website from a Facebook comment. I already like that I can log items and recipes and easily scale them up. Maybe it will help me start a small business. Hope everyone enjoys baking.
Hey yall, My name is Elizabeth Robertson White, but my grandbabies call me NannaPuddin’. That’s where the name of my bakery came from. Im from a small town in South Mississippi called Seminary. Maybelle, Mississippi is my home just about 12 miles outside town…
Ive been baking for better than 27 years but only a few months professionally. Im hoping butterbase will help me streamline my business and help separate it from my personal kitchen.
Fun fact: I have worked in 11 American Embassies worldwide…
