Get Your Daily Production List from Square
You use Square. You take preorders. But when it's time to bake, you're still counting orders by hand. CafeKit connects to your Square account and shows you a daily production list — total quantities per item, with preorders and walk-in sales separated, exportable as a CSV.
What Bakery Owners Do Today
Square is great for taking orders. But when you need to know what to bake tomorrow, you're on your own.
Exporting to Excel
Export orders from Square, open in a spreadsheet, sort by item and pickup date, then manually add up the quantities. Every. Single. Day.
Paper Binders & Sticky Notes
Carbon copy order forms filed by date in monthly binders. A shared Apple Note with all orders for the day. Production boards in the kitchen with handwritten counts.
Counting Preorders One by One
Opening each order in Square to see what's due, then tallying up totals by item. Fifteen orders for Tuesday? That's fifteen orders to click through and count.
No Production Report
Square doesn't have a report that says "here's what you need to make tomorrow." No consolidated list. No total quantities per item. No production view at all.
Before & After
What your morning looks like now versus with CafeKit.
Without CafeKit (counting by hand):
Order #1: 2 Sourdough, 1 Baguette
Order #2: 3 Sourdough, 2 Cinnamon Rolls
Order #3: 1 Sourdough, 1 Birthday Cake
... 9 more orders to count through ...
Then open your spreadsheet and start tallying...
With CafeKit (one production list):
| Item | Total | Breakdown |
|---|---|---|
| Sourdough Loaves | 18 | 6 preorders + 12 walk-in avg |
| Cinnamon Rolls | 24 | 8 preorders + 16 walk-in avg |
| Baguettes | 15 | 3 preorders + 12 walk-in avg |
| Birthday Cakes | 2 | 2 preorders |
