Did you see anywhere that indicates that they would not be allowed? I would think they’d be fine to use, as long as the resulting product is nonperishable.

What are the rules for hot chocolate bombs and chocolate covered cherries? I’m concerned about a Seller’s Chronic health issue (coughing) contaminating her products.

David Crabill replied 4 years, 9 months ago
Someone would need to use a commercial kitchen to legally sell those in WI, but it’s exceedingly common for people not to. If you’re wondering how to deal with that seller, this is what I usually suggest: https://forrager.com/faq/#illegal

Rachel, where do you sell? From home, at farmers markets, etc?

What are the rules on flavored honey (not cooked) and homemade vanilla? I cannot find these anywhere.

David Crabill replied 4 years, 9 months ago
The lawsuit exemption only covers baked goods. The pickle bill only covers canned goods. Most states have some kind of exemption for selling honey, but that might not apply to flavored honey. I’d recommend contacting the ag dept about that. As for vanilla, you’ll likely need to produce that in a commercial kitchen in order to sell it legally.

I have a well with a water treatment, I do not anticipate failing a water analysis but who do I get an analysis from to attach to my registration? Can it be from my water treatment company?

Did you figure this out? I am just starting with the application and am in the same position. The nys.gov pages take you in circles on this one. Then, there are phone numbers to call where no one answers and emails that do not get quick responses. I did finally find a short list of state approved labs for private well testing. This lab will mail…[Read more]
