Pro tip: my 9 year old nephew just priced out my whole cookie side hustle
He sat at my kitchen table in Boise and asked why I charge $12 a dozen when the flour, butter, and eggs only cost me about $3.50, and I didn't have a good answer. So now I'm wondering, how do you all figure out what to actually charge when the materials are cheap but the oven runs for 3 hours?
Have your nephew track his own hourly rate for the shopping, mixing, scooping, and cleanup, then add a few bucks so you actually make money. People don't just buy flour and butter, they buy your time and a cookie that tastes better than the tube stuff.
