Being the big computer nerd, I'm moving on from my excel spreadsheet (I'll never totally abandon that) into access. It will allow me to track everything as well as calculate how much my supplies cost me.
There are some details I am missing, I'm sure it is easy to find, but I am hoping someone out there has done some leg work for me and can help me out. I need for each size cake how much filling goes into them (in ounces). So if I have a bag of chocolate cream, how much do you use in a 6 in cake, 8 in, etc... what about for square cakes? I also don't have the amount of ounces in fondant the square cakes use. I have for the round cakes how much fondant, but not for square.
Also, any other ideas for things to include. I think I have a pretty extensive brainstorm list but I am sure I missed some things.

Try the cake matrix posted on here--I think it has all of that and then some. I've spent some extensive time on IT, changing it to include the things I need it to, like scratch cakes, etc.
Good luck.

has anyone tried the bakery software programs out there yet? Any free download demos or are they all pretty much online demos? I'm gonna try the Matrix spreadsheet, pretty similar to my soapmaking spreadsheet program.
