What you can plan with the Katchi cost calculator

Katchi calculates the sweet part of your catering — setup, guest count and staffing in one tool.

Ice cream bike

Mobile setup with display, staff and many flavors — visible, inviting, perfect for outdoor events and brand activations.

Live waffles

Freshly baked Bubble Waffles with ice cream and toppings — aroma and show right in front of your guests.

Self-service

Compact ice cream kit you set up and serve yourself. Quick, simple, ideal for smaller events.

Katchi service with staff

We bring the equipment and staff and handle on-site service — you just focus on your event.

Direct sales on-site

For public events or festivals: Katchi sells directly to your guests or visitors. Minimum-revenue guarantee on agreement.

Dessert catering as add-on

Add Katchi on top of your existing lunch, dinner or buffet catering — we turn the sweet part into the highlight.

What does dessert catering cost?

Cost depends on guest count, event duration, location, service model, flavor selection, staffing and extras. The Katchi configurator gives you a first non-binding estimate for the sweet part of your event.

Catering costs per person

Dessert catering costs are typically planned per person or per serving. Self-service, staffed Katchi service, ice cream bike and direct sales differ significantly. The calculator shows which model fits your guest count and budget.
