Protect Your Sanity

Set Daily Limits. Never Overcommit Again.

You can bake 20 cookies a day. But orders pile up and suddenly you have 150 due tomorrow. FoodShop lets you set per-product daily limits. When you hit your limit, your storefront shows "Sold Out Today" automatically. Limits reset at midnight in your timezone—matching how you actually work.

  • Set optional daily limits on any product
  • "Sold Out Today" badge appears automatically on storefront
  • Limits tracked by delivery date, not order date
  • Customers see "Available tomorrow" when sold out
  • Limits reset at midnight in your timezone
  • See remaining capacity at a glance
Protect Your Schedule

Why This Matters

Most bakers say yes to every order, then panic realizing they promised 200 items they can only make 60 of. Daily limits let you protect your production schedule while still taking orders.
