Accounting & POS software for bakeries and sweet shops in South Africa

Flour, butter, cream and finished cakes have short lives. Without live stock counts you only find out you've over-baked or run short when it's already costing you — either waste in the bin or customers turned away at the counter.

A croissant, a birthday cake and a bag of sweets each carry very different ingredient and labour costs. When recipes and prices live in your head, it's impossible to see which lines actually make money and which quietly drain it.

Sorting standard-rated sales, zero-rated basics and input VAT on ingredients by hand is slow and error-prone. Come VAT201 time you're rebuilding numbers from till rolls and supplier invoices instead of trusting your books.

Cash tills, card machines and a separate accounting file mean double entry and end-of-day gaps you can't explain. Reconciling takes evenings you'd rather spend baking or at home.

Set recipes once and Tallium AI deducts ingredients as items sell, flags low stock before you run out, and shows waste and fast movers. You bake to real demand instead of guessing, cutting spoilage across the week.

Cost your recipes and Tallium AI shows margin per item and per category in plain reports. AI insights surface your best sellers and your quiet money-losers so you can adjust prices and production with confidence.

Tag standard-rated and zero-rated lines correctly at the point of sale, and Tallium AI keeps a running VAT position ready for your VAT201 on SARS eFiling. Receipt scanning captures input VAT on ingredient and packaging purchases automatically.

Every sale at the counter posts straight into your accounts — no re-keying, no separate files. End-of-day cash and card totals reconcile in one place, and you get unlimited users so staff and your accountant all work in the same system.
