How We Calculate This

This calculator divides the usable tray area into a grid based on cookie diameter plus spacing to determine how many cookies fit per tray.

The Formula

  • Columns = floor((tray length - 2cm margin) / (cookie diameter + spacing))
  • Rows = floor((tray width - 2cm margin) / (cookie diameter + spacing))
  • Cookies per tray = Columns x Rows
  • Trays needed = ceil(total cookies / cookies per tray)
