Learn how to make homemade sweets to sell and charge for your products!

Something that depends on the region you live in and how much you invested. First of all, calculate the price to get an idea of how much your product will cost, separating each ingredient and how much they yield.

So, calculate the cost of the items and remember that this will depend on the quantities used, not the price spent on packages. For example, if you buy a 4kg package of chocolate, but 500g was enough to make your recipe, calculate only the 500g.

Include other costs such as water and electricity in this calculation and then divide this by the total number of sweets that your recipe was able to yield. This way, you will have an idea of how much was spent on preparing each unit of sweets.

Once this is done, take the value you gave and divide it by 3, so that you can obtain your profit and cover the cost of your labor.

In fact, there are several ways to do this calculation and this was just one of them, giving a price for your sweet treat with a profit margin.

But now we leave the chat aside and let's show how to make homemade sweets for sale with three great recipes!

CAKE IN A JAR

Ingredients:

For mass:

• Eggs – 8 units
• Crystal sugar – 2 teacups
• Milk – 2 cups of tea
• Oil – 1/4 cup
• Margarine – 3 tablespoons (good quality)
• Wheat flour – 4 cups
• Baking powder – 2 tablespoons
• Salt – 1 pinch

For the filling:

• Yolks separated from whites – 3 units
• Margarine – 1 tablespoon (or butter)
• Condensed milk – 2 cans
• Cream – 1 can
• Ninho milk – 1 teacup

For the syrup:

• Sugar – 1 teacup
• Water – 1 cup of tea
• Vanilla essence – 1/2 teaspoon

Method of preparation:

Pasta:

1. Start by beating the eggs and sugar until you get a fluffy, white cream. Stop beating and gradually add the sifted dry ingredients and mix carefully using a whisk.
2. Then, with the boiled milk, add the oil and margarine, and gently add this mixture to your dough, mixing it with the help of a whisk.
3. After greasing the rectangular baking tray (30x35cm) with margarine and wheat flour, bake in a low oven for 30 minutes, depending on your oven. As soon as it is golden brown, insert a knife and if it comes out clean, turn off the oven.

Filling:

1. Combine all the ingredients in a pan and place over low heat, stirring constantly until thickened, then let it cool (it can be used as a filling for toppings).

Syrup:

Then add the sugar, water and vanilla to a saucepan and cook over medium heat until it starts to boil and the sugar has melted. Wait for it to cool before serving. (This syrup is a basic recipe that can be used in other types of cake).

Assembly:

1. To assemble, cut the dough into rounded pieces so that they fit into the pot, or you can also leave it crumbled.
2. Start with the base of the cake dough, then pour the syrup over it (without wetting it too much), add the filling and then alternate again with the dough, syrup and filling to fill the entire pot.
3. Continuing, the next recipe has countless versions, the brigadeiro, that's why I had to come here because it's so wonderful. 

BRIGADIER

Ingredients:

• Condensed milk – 1 can
• Cocoa powder – 2 tablespoons (50% cocoa)
• Butter – 1 tablespoon
• Glucose or honey – 1 tablespoon (optional, but its function is to slow down the granulation of the sugar in the brigadeiro)
• Sour cream – 2 tablespoons

Method of preparation:

1. Mix all the ingredients in a pan and continue cooking over low heat, stirring constantly, until it reaches the consistency of brigadeiro.
2. Finally, put it in your fridge, then just make the balls and roll them in sprinkles.

BROWNIE

Ingredients:

• Sugar – 1 teacup
• Wheat flour – 1/2 cup (without yeast)
• Butter – 2 tablespoons (or margarine)
• Cocoa powder – 1/2 cup (without sugar)
• Dark chocolate – 100g
• Eggs – 2 units

Method of preparation:

1. In the bowl with eggs and butter (already melted) mix it and then sift the sugar, wheat flour, and cocoa powder and incorporate a little more.
2. Then, melt and add the chocolate and continue mixing. Using a greased small/medium sized pan (21x21x3.5) using butter and chocolate powder, now pour the mixture.
3. Once preheated in the oven, bake it (180ºC) for about 20 minutes or leave it in the microwave on high power for 5-8 minutes. To finish, cut it when it cools.
4. But having seen these recipes, the sweets are super versatile, so be bold and create whatever you want.
5. And a #dica social networks, such as Instagram, are great advertising channels and can boost your product, helping with your sales, especially for those who are starting out.

Therefore, it is extremely important that you test these and other recipes to see if they will actually sell. If you don't get good results, don't get discouraged and keep testing other recipes until you find your clientele.
