Howdy! CookieDraft is a planning studio for cottage bakers. It was built end-to-end for Configmakeathon. The user can design a cookie, get the exact icing and dye amounts, and walk into the store or start decorating with a print-ready spec.

The problem: Cottage bakers have a lot going on, and planning in a pinch is sometimes difficult for those last-minute orders. They mix too much icing, buy a color that dries wrong, or sometimes freehand a batch, hoping cookie ten looks right next to cookie one. It wastes money and time on every order. The solution: CookieDraft turns your design into a buy list. You decorate a cookie on a gridded canvas (or not), and the engine calculates your dyed icing from what you actually drew, converting it to a spec sheet you can reference anytime, anywhere. Every color maps to a real product on shelves at Walmart, Target, Michaels, or Hobby Lobby, at the bare minimum, brands like Betty Crocker are cross-retailer, so the plan is always buyable.

What makes it special: • The math is real, sourced from actual recipe yield data, not a flat estimate, and proven against known-volume checks. • The tools behave like real royal icing. Outline and flood are different tools because they are in the kitchen too, and flood only fills closed shapes. • The colors are store-accurate, mapped to physical products at five named retailers, not a generic library. • It was built on a locked spec in deliberate, credit-conscious stages, with the math engine getting the most care.
