Add Products with Bake Buddy

You can add your products by chatting with Bake Buddy. Send one product in each message. Bake Buddy shows what it will save, and it saves the product only when you click Confirm.

How to start

1. Open Bake Buddy. Click the round Bake Buddy button at the bottom right of any page, or click Start with Bake Buddy on the Start here page.
2. Type one product, for example:

   Add a product: Sourdough loaf, 6.00, category Breads

3. Bake Buddy shows the name, price and other details. Make sure they are correct.
4. Click Confirm. The product is saved. Click View to open it.
5. Send the next product.

What you can tell Bake Buddy

• Name — required.
• Price — required. Use your own currency. Bake Buddy uses the currency in your settings.
• Category — optional. Use the name of a category that you already have (for example, Breads). If the category does not exist, Bake Buddy saves nothing and shows the categories that you have. Add new categories in Settings > List of Values.
• Recipe — optional. For example: Add a product: Red Velvet slice, 4.50, recipe Red Velvet Cake. The product is linked to the recipe, and its cost comes from the recipe.
• Description — optional.

After you add products

Open Products to add photos, sizes (variants), allergens, tax rates and stock settings. Bake Buddy adds the basic details only.

Who can add products

Owners, managers and staff can add products, the same as on the Products page. A custom role needs the Manage storefront products permission. If you do not have this permission, Bake Buddy does not save the product.
