Questions people actually ask

How do I show today's flavours when they change daily?

Rebuild the flavour column at the same moment you do the morning tub count, not later — open the board, read the cabinet left to right, and type what is actually in it. Order the list by what you want to move, not alphabetically: the batch you over-churned goes at the top, the safe vanilla can sit at the bottom because it sells itself. Delete anything that ran out overnight rather than leaving it up; a flavour on the board that isn't in the tub is a customer you have to say no to at the counter. Push the updated board to the screen before you unlock the door and the day's list is done.

How do I price scoops, cones and sundaes without a mess?

Price the container, not the flavour. One scoop price covers the whole flavour list, so the flavour column stays a list of flavours — names only, one price at the head of the column — and never turns into a price grid nobody scans. Sundaes and cones then get their own column with their own prices, because a sundae is a different thing you are selling, not a variation on a scoop. Upgrades — waffle cone, extra scoop, a topping — belong in the footer as plain +amounts; the second you put a "+40" beside a flavour, customers start reading the column as arithmetic instead of appetite.

How do I feature a seasonal or limited flavour?

Take it out of the list. A limited flavour that sits in alphabetical order between two regulars is invisible; give it its own line above the scoop column with a short honest qualifier — "Alphonso, till the season ends" or "this batch only" — so the constraint does the selling. If the board rotates, give the flavour a slide of its own for a few seconds and let the photo carry it. Then pull it the day the batch finishes: a "limited" flavour that has been up since March teaches regulars to ignore the word, and you lose the one lever that makes people order something new.
