Billing Software for Bakeries & Cafés
Custom cake orders with advance, weight billing, recipe costing and home delivery — complete bakery and café billing that works offline.
Challenges we solve for Bakery & Café
Real problems faced by bakery & café owners — solved with Talvera Orbit.
Custom Cake Orders Are Hard to Manage
Weight, flavour, and design variations make every custom cake order unique. Orbit's item notes and advance booking keep every order correct.
Ingredient Costs Are Invisible
Not knowing how much flour, butter, and eggs go into each product means pricing by guesswork. Orbit's recipe COGS links each item to its raw ingredients.
Counter Rush During Morning Hours
Breakfast rush with no system means missed orders and unhappy customers. Orbit puts a token number on every counter order and bills from a quick-tap menu.

A day at your bakery & café on Talvera Orbit
From opening the counter to closing the day — how the work actually runs.
Morning: stock up and check expiry
Enter flour, butter and packaging against the supplier bill as a GRN. Batch and expiry dates are recorded on stock that has a shelf life.
Counter rush: tap, weigh and bill
Tap items off the menu, weigh cookies or cake by the gram, and every counter bill gets a token number automatically.
Take a cake order
Book the cake in Cake Orders with its weight, flavour and design notes, collect the advance and print an advance receipt. On pickup or delivery the balance is billed against the same order.
Deliveries and online orders
Delivery bills carry the address and phone. Orders from your own online store or WhatsApp are accepted, prepared and handed over from Online Orders.
Evening: write off and close
Log unsold or spoiled items in Wastage with a reason, then close the day: cash by payment mode against the bills.

How to choose bakery & café billing software
A bakery runs two businesses at once: a fast counter selling the day's pastries, breads and puffs, and an order book of birthday and wedding cakes taken days in advance. Bakery billing software has to handle both — quick counter bills in the morning rush, and cake orders that remember the flavour, weight, message and advance paid.
Talvera Orbit bills from a tap-to-add menu at the counter, sells loose cookies and cakes by weight, and keeps every cake order in one book with its advance receipt. Recipes link each item to its ingredients, so you can see what a product really costs before you price it. Everything runs offline on your own Windows PC.
Checklist before you buy
- Can it keep custom cake orders with notes and an advance, separate from counter sales?
- Can it bill by weight as well as by the piece?
- Does it know the ingredient cost of each item (recipe costing)?
- Can you record wastage so stock and profit stay honest?
- Does it handle home delivery bills with the address on them?
- Will the counter keep billing if the internet goes down on a busy morning?

Bakery & Café billing software — FAQs
Common questions from bakery & café owners in India.
Can I take custom cake orders in advance?
Yes. Cake Orders books the order with its weight, flavour and design notes and the advance paid, so the cake is made exactly as the customer described it and the balance is collected when it is picked up or delivered.
Does it tell me the ingredient cost of each product?
Yes. Recipe Management links each item to its raw ingredients and tracks COGS percentage per product, so you know what the flour, butter, and eggs in a product actually cost before you price it.
Can I log unsold or spoiled items at the end of the day?
Yes. The Wastage tab under Recipes writes off unsold or spoiled items by item, quantity and reason, and takes the stock out through the item's recipe so ingredient stock stays right.
Can I bill by weight?
Yes. Weight-based billing prices items per gram or kilogram, which covers cakes and loose bakery items sold by weight rather than by the piece.
Can I send bills and offers to my customers on WhatsApp?
Yes, with the WhatsApp add-on. Bills go to the customer's WhatsApp as a PDF from the sale screen, and WhatsApp Offers sends a campaign — with a flyer Orbit designs from your logo and offer — to the customers who agreed to receive offers. Discounts, buy-one-get-one, coupons, gift vouchers, loyalty points and birthday offers are part of every shop licence.
Does Talvera Orbit work without an internet connection?
Yes. The Windows desktop app stores all your bakery & café billing data locally in an SQLite database on your own PC, so billing, inventory, and reports keep working with no internet at all.
Is there a free trial?
Yes — a 14-day free trial of the full application, with no credit card required. Select Bakery & Café as your business type when you start the trial and you get the complete feature set described on this page.
Can I run more than one billing counter?
Yes. Talvera Orbit runs up to 10 billing counters on a single local network — a Windows desktop as the master counter plus up to 9 more Windows PCs as counters. All counters share stock, customers, and sales data in real time. A multi-counter licence is required to run more than one counter.
How much does it cost?
Pricing is quoted per business rather than published as a fixed list price, because it depends on your shop type, how many billing counters you run, and whether you need Cloud POS across branches. Contact us for a written quote for your bakery & café.
