I had posted these pics on Discord and was asked to make a post for balancing.
Today I checked if selling ingredients for cake (thinking ingredients might be a little less than the cake) would be more efficient than selling cake itself due to the time growing and cooking, and here is the price disparity between the two (set of ingredients vs a single cake).
I’m still working on this and might update this post on replies, but I think in general items should at least cost the same or more than the ingredients to make it. It’ll help encourage people to get into farming and cook things further for profit and not just heals/buffs.
