Frozen Dough Balls

Just wondering what people are paying for frozen dough balls after the flour increases… Do the dough ball suppliers have large stock piles of flour and are still able to keep their prices low. Or have they seen a major increase in the price of frozen dough as well?

A bit high, but not much movement, and getting more attractive as everyone comes up to meet me :slight_smile:

Here are my numbers from making my own…

8" Dough Ball 7.5 $0.25
12" Dough Ball 14 $0.47
14" Dough Ball 18 $0.60

Not really too far off from Frozen…

Do your numbers for making your own include labor costs? Waste?

No it does not include labor, it generally takes 2 people making $8.00 per hour, about 20 mins to make dough/cut/tray it. Well 20 mins after the mixing is complete.

There is generally no waste… unless someone screws up…

Im paying .90 for a 22oz ball…been that way since i opened in Nov…let’s just see how long it stays that way.
