Once food is opened, the date on the package stops telling the whole story.
You put it back in the fridge. A few days pass. Nobody remembers when it was opened — so you guess, smell it, throw it away too early, or keep it longer than you intended.
One scan. One label. No mental notes.
bbday combines a simple mobile app with a small portable label printer.
Scan. Confirm. Print. Done.
Scan the barcode when you open a product.
bbday recognizes the product and suggests a practical consume-within time. Review it and adjust it if needed.
Tap print and stick the label directly onto the package.
Now everyone knows.
The app handles recognition and tracking. The printed label makes the important information visible to everyone.
You shouldn’t need to open an app every time you look inside the fridge. bbday puts the useful information exactly where you need it — on the package.
Anyone opening the fridge can see the label.
The opening information stays with the product.
Know what should be used first instead of rediscovering it too late.
No handwriting. No permanent marker. No spreadsheet. No kitchen calendar.
A clean label appears in seconds.
Need more later? Replacement label rolls will be available separately.
One payment. No subscription.
Use bbday without monthly app fees.
Leftovers. Sauces. Deli meat. Dairy. Meal prep. Open jars. Half-used ingredients.
bbday is designed for all the ordinary food that gets opened, put back, and forgotten.
bbday is already a real product. EarlyLarks secures the stock before it is offered here.
You’re not funding a drawing or a prototype.
The inventory for EarlyLarks orders is held for fulfillment.
Orders ship in small batches instead of waiting for one long crowdfunding campaign to end.

No. Your purchase includes lifetime access to the bbday app. There is no monthly app subscription.
bbday uses product recognition and available product information to suggest a practical consume-within period after opening. You always see the suggestion before printing and can adjust it when needed.
No. bbday is an organization and tracking tool. Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions, storage requirements and applicable food-safety guidance. If a product appears unsafe, do not rely on a printed label.
You can add the product manually, choose the consume-within period yourself, and print the label normally.
The launch package includes five rolls — enough for more than 660 labels.
Yes. Replacement self-adhesive label rolls will be available separately, so you can keep using bbday after the five included rolls are finished.
Your order joins the current EarlyLarks batch. Each batch closes when it reaches 100 orders or when the batch ends, whichever happens first. Fulfillment begins after the batch closes.
Yes. bbday is being offered on EarlyLarks as a real product rather than an unbuilt concept. Stock for EarlyLarks orders is secured before fulfillment.
The next time you open the fridge, you won’t have to remember.
