Regarding to the UIStepper, I think you need to create an IBOutlet for it so that the user can reset the value of it

The existing reset method only reset the var quantity in the view controller but not the stepper itself.

For example, if I selected item 1 , and increase the quantity to 5. Now I select item 2, when I try to increase the quantity , I expect it to be 2 since we have reset it back to 1 upon selecting a different item on the uicollectionview , but it shows 6 instead.

@IBAction func updateQuantity(sender: UIStepper) {
    quantity = sender.value
    updateQuantityLabel()
    updateTotalPriceLabel()
}

This method itself will take any value sent from the stepper, so it was 5 + 1 = 6. But it's not suppose to be that case.

So I think we need an extra IBOutlet as below:

@IBOutlet weak var quantityStepper: UIStepper!

and update the reset function like this:

func reset(){
    quantityStepper.value = 1
    quantity = 1
    updateQuantityLabel()
    updateBalanceLabel()
}
