Store description excerpt
Track your cottage food sales against your state's revenue cap — and know exactly when you'll hit it. Kitchen Ledger is the back-office tool for home bakers, jam makers and farmers market vendors running a real business without going over the legal limit. REAL-TIME CAP HEALTH Most cottage food operators have no idea how close they are to their state's annual cap. Log your sales and a gauge fills in real time, projecting when you'll hit it at your current pace — "At your current pace, you'll hit your cap on September 14." Slow down, raise prices, or push through with eyes open. ALL 50 STATES AND DC Every state's law is different. Kitchen Ledger knows: • Your annual revenue cap (or "no cap" for food freedom states) • What you're allowed to sell — and what you're not • Which sales channels are allowed (in-person, farmers market, online) • Whether you need a permit • The label disclaimer your state requires Every entry shows when we last checked it and links to your state's agency, so you can judge how current it is rather than taking our word for it. INVOICES, DEPOSITS AND BALANCES Take a deposit to hold a date, track the balance, and send a branded invoice or receipt as a PDF. We don't process payments and don't take a percentage — you get paid however you already do. COMPLIANT LABELS IN 30 SECONDS Add a recipe. Kitchen Ledger pulls the allergens from your ingredients, sorts them by weight (per FDA), and adds your state's required disclaimer. Generate an Avery 5163 sticker PDF. Share or print. SCHEDULE C READY WHEN APRIL ROLLS AROUND Kitchen Ledger keeps a clean ledger all year — gross receipts, expenses by category, mileage at the IRS standard rate — and exports a Schedule C-ready CSV in one tap. Plus quarterly estimated tax projections, and reminders a week before each deadline. PRIVATE AI THAT NEVER LEAVES YOUR PHONE Paste a customer's text or DM and Kitchen Ledger reads the order out of it — customer, items, quantities, date — filling prices from your own recipe list. All of it happens on your device. Nothing is uploaded, because there is nowhere for it to go. YOUR DATA IS YOURS Export everything to one file and restore it on a new phone. Free for everyone — charging you to not lose your own records would be indefensible. FREE TIER WITH REAL VALUE No lock-out. Kitchen Ledger Free gives you the whole app: • 5 orders per month • 3 recipes with cost and margin calculator • 5 labels per month (with a small watermark) • 3 invoices per month • Your state's complete compliance reference • Full data backup and restore KITCHEN LEDGER PRO Unlocks: • Unlimited orders, recipes, labels and invoices (no watermark) • Every state, not just yours — for anyone selling across a state line • Schedule C tax export • Cap projection alerts at thresholds you choose • Profit and margin analytics by product, channel, and market • Weekly digest and per-market sales reports PRIVACY-FIRST. NO ADS. NO TRACKING. Everything stays on your device. No account, no sign
