Tamale Business Software for Weekly Drops

Take dozen-based preorders, lock orders before steam day, and run a clean pickup window — without DMs.

Tamale sellers run on weekly drops by the dozen. Steam day is the busiest day of your week, and the last thing you want is a phone full of DMs, Venmos, and missed orders. FoodDropr is built for the way tamale businesses actually operate.

Why tamale sellers need real software

Tamales are sold by the dozen and half-dozen. Customers order multiple fillings. Allergy and spice-level notes matter. And steam day is brutal — you cannot afford to lose track of which order is for which pickup.

Tamale-specific features

Built around the cadence tamale sellers actually run.

  • Per-filling caps so you never oversell pork
  • Half-dozen and dozen variants
  • Spice-level and allergy notes per order
  • Stripe payment upfront — no chasing Venmo
  • Steam-day pickup list sorted by time and customer

Tamale legality

Tamales contain meat and require refrigeration in most states, so most cottage food laws don't cover them. A handful of food-freedom states allow direct in-state tamale sales. Otherwise you need a commissary or home-processor license. FoodDropr is the storefront layer — your legal status is between you and your state.
