How BakeBudget works
Cost to bake
What the amounts in a recipe cost: 2 cups of flour, not the whole bag. It's the fair way to compare recipes and the number behind cost per serving.
Cost to shop
What you pay at the register, because flour, butter and vanilla come in whole packages. BakeBudget picks the package size that covers your plan for the least money and shows what's left over for next time.
Where the prices come from
Typical shelf prices at National Grocery Chain stores from our Consumer Pricing Guide, which updates every day. Add your ZIP code to use your state's prices, or your region's where your state has none. Items we can't price yet are marked, never guessed.
Your plan stays yours
BakeBudget saves in this browser. Signed-in members also keep it in My Kitchen on every device. Your ZIP code is only used to pick prices and is never shown to anyone.
