DoughPlan takes your orders and spits out the four things you re-do by hand every single week: a time-reversed bake schedule, scaled formulas, one shopping list, and cottage-food labels. Production planning priced for someone who sells 40 loaves a week — not 400 a day.
You love the baking. You don't love the Friday-night math.
Add your recipes once (in baker's percentages). Drop in the week's orders. DoughPlan does the rest.
Pick "loaves out at 7am Saturday." DoughPlan works backwards through levain, mix, bulk, shape, and cold proof — and merges steps shared across products into one timeline.
Your recipe in baker's percentages, scaled to the exact gram for this week's quantity. Hydration and totals checked for you.
Every ingredient summed across every product. Know exactly how much flour to buy before you drive to the mill.
Ingredient declaration in predominance order, allergen statement, net weight, and your state's disclaimer — generated from the recipe. Print and stick.
A tidy pick-list for each customer so nothing gets bagged wrong on a hectic market morning.
One clean printout for the wall by the oven. No subscription needed to plan your first product.
Spreadsheets break at scale. Enterprise bakery software costs $200–350/mo and is built for 400-loaf-a-day wholesalers. Storefront tools sell your bread but don't help you bake it.
