The profit from making sesame biscuits depends on the price of sesame biscuits. Generally, sesame cakes are sold cheaper in the north, ranging from 50 cents to 1 yuan, while in southern cities they are sold for 2 to 3 yuan. One pound of flour makes five to eight sesame seed cakes. Excluding carbon, oil, sesame seeds, ingredients, and labor, the profit is generally between 50% and 80%.
