A Recipe is a sellable drink (or pastry, or anything you ring up at the till). You build it by adding lines — each line is {Item, quantity} — and the app sums the line costs to give you per-cup COGS.

​
Two prices

Each recipe surfaces two suggested prices, and they answer different questions:

Quick price

On the Recipes form. Set a target food-cost % (e.g. 25%), the app shoots back a suggested sell price. Fast — but doesn’t account for rent or wages.

Calculator price

On the Calculator page. Full P&L number — covers rent, wages, target margin, and your actual volume.
Use Quick price when you’re sense-checking a single recipe (“does RM 12 for this latte make sense at 25% food cost?”). Use the Calculator when you’re pricing the menu seriously (“at this volume, with this rent and these wages, what does each cup need to charge to leave 10% margin?”). Each recipe also has a Menu price (RM) field — the actual price you charge on your menu today. It’s optional, but filling it in unlocks two things:
  • The Calculator’s Unit economics check card, which compares your real menu prices against your fixed costs and tells you whether the plan breaks even at planned volume.
  • The recipe-derived target line on Pulse’s revenue burn chart. With menu prices set, the target reflects what you actually charge — not just what the Calculator suggests.
If you leave it blank, nothing breaks; the Calculator’s suggested price is used as the fallback for any recipe without a menu price set.
Fill in menu prices for your top sellers first. The Unit economics check averages across whatever recipes have one set — so even a handful of mapped prices is enough for a useful read.

Example: Hot Coffee Latte

Using the items defined on the Items page, the Hot Coffee Latte recipe has three lines:
ItemQuantityPer-unit costLine cost
Whole milk150 mlRM 0.008 / mlRM 1.20
Coffee beans18 gRM 0.0889 / gRM 1.60
Paper cup1RM 0.30RM 0.30
Per-cup COGSRM 3.10

​
Quick price for this recipe

If you set a target food-cost of 25% on the Recipes form, the Quick price comes back as: RM 3.10 ÷ 0.25 = RM 12.40 That’s the minimum sell price to keep food cost at or below 25% of revenue. Round to a clean menu number (RM 12.50, RM 13) for the till. For the full P&L picture — what to charge once rent, wages, and target net margin are factored in — feed this same recipe through the Calculator. The Calculator surfaces a different price because it’s solving a different equation (margin on revenue, not food cost as a % of revenue).

​
Per-recipe sales (after Loyverse linkage)

If you map Loyverse variants to recipes (see Loyverse Items), the Recipes index gains three columns: Sold this month, Revenue, Gross margin. Without mapping, the Recipes index still works for setup and pricing — you just don’t see per-recipe sales numbers. Mapping is incremental: cover your top sellers first, leave rare items unmapped. They’ll still count in your overall Pulse revenue.

​
What’s next

With your top recipes built and per-cup COGS computed, head to the Calculator to factor in your fixed costs (rent, wages, utilities) and target margin. That’s where the full P&L picture lands — and where your monthly revenue target gets set.
