I read the information about selling online in Louisiana, but it wasn’t too simple. This is what I understand, I can sell cakes online (only of someone picks it up). I have to label that it was not produced in a commercial establishment. I can not make more than $20,000 a year.

LA’s law is one of the most ambiguous, but yes that all sounds about right. It’s not really clear whether you can also deliver certain items, from what I’ve read.

Who can do I contact for more information about selling canned Candied jalapeno peppers in Louisiana? Does Louisiana have a cottage law for canned Candied Jalapeno peppers? Do you have to be licensed registered to sale them?

I am still fairly new to Louisiana and CFO’s and wanted to know in order to sell online or to more then one parish, do I have to have a local sales tax certificate for every parish or county? Am I able to sell online and ship to other states or do I need the same information for every state and parish or county?

At the very least, you should be able to sell directly anywhere in the state. Like farmers markets, roadside stands, delivering directly to people, etc. There shouldn’t be a zone-by-zone restriction for where you can sell. Is that what you were asking?
