Feature · Cake configurator

A custom cake priced in a minute, no mental math.

A customer or a team member builds the cake step by step: type, shape, fillings, decorations. The price is calculated automatically, per kilogram or per portion. Plus a portion calculator that tells you how many people a given cake will serve.

Available from the Profesjonalny (Professional) plan - from 189 PLN/month + VAT.

Your own option groups: fillings, decorations, extras

Custom cakes are rarely the same. Instead of creating a separate product for every combination, you define once everything that can be chosen: cake types, shapes and your own option groups with any names you like - jam, cream layer, decoration, extras. Each option can carry a surcharge, and groups can be shown only for selected cake types.

  • Cake types (e.g. chocolate, fruit) and shapes with weight per person
  • Any option groups with your own names and surcharges
  • Conditions: a group or option only for selected cake types
  • Single or multiple choice with a limit
  • Required or optional groups

Automatic pricing, per kilogram or per portion

Each cake type can be priced per kilogram (the classic way), per portion (handy for large cakes) or offer a choice of both. When placing the order you enter the weight or the number of portions, and the price recalculates itself, together with the surcharges for the selected options and shape. Consistent pricing for every combination, with no mental math and no mistakes.

  • Per kg mode: price = weight × price per kilogram
  • Per portion mode: price = number of portions × price per portion
  • Both mode: you choose the pricing method when ordering
  • Shape and option surcharges are added automatically
  • Live price while the cake is being built

Portion calculator based on Marta Mężyńska's table

Not sure how many portions a cake of a given diameter will give? The wizard includes a portion calculator based on Marta Mężyńska's table, well known in the Polish cake industry. You choose the number of tiers and the diameters, and the system suggests the number of portions, which you add to the order with one click.

  • Choice of the number of tiers (1-6) and diameters in centimeters
  • Suggested number of portions from the table (e.g. 24 cm gives 30-40 portions)
  • Set the number of guests in the order with one click
  • Pricing uses the lower end of the range, so you never promise the customer too much

Frequently asked questions

Which plan includes the cake configurator?

The Profesjonalny (Professional) and Mistrzowski (Master) plans. A Cakes tab appears in the menu, where you define types, shapes and option groups.

Do I have to create a separate product for every cake combination?

No. One custom cake is enough: you define the options once in the configurator and build each combination step by step when ordering. The price is calculated automatically.

How does the calculator know how many portions a cake will give?

It uses Marta Mężyńska's portion table: specific diameters and numbers of tiers have an assigned number of portions. The system does not guess values outside the table.
