David replied to the topic Sellers Permit in Los Angeles California in the forum California 9 years ago
David, I can assure you that most (if not all) of the CFOs in LA County have not had to spend $1,000+ on a business license. You can ask your health dept if you need a business license, but regardless, a business license should be a fairly simple process that shouldn’t cost more than a couple hundred for a small business.
I just looked up…[Read more]

David replied to the topic Clarifications for forrager.com/law/south-carolina/ in the forum Forrager 9 years, 1 month ago
Dylan, thanks so much for getting in touch with me. I’ll address each point below, but first, I think it’s important to note that Forrager is not intended to be totally comprehensive of all information for starting a CFO. There is plenty of additional info that could go on any given law page, but I’ve just tried to include the essentials so that…[Read more]

No — pasta sauce needs to be made in a commercial kitchen. http://forrager.com/faq/#commercial

Chris Northuis Kuck posted an update in the group Florida 9 years, 1 month ago
Hi all, I’m new to this site so bear with me if I may be asking a redundant question. I am a pet sitter, and recently started making dog treats. My treats are human grade: gluten free flour, ground flaxseed, eggs, pumpkin puree, and peanut butter. I understand that I cannot sell “dog food” under the cottage law, but I am thinking of labeling…[Read more]

Hi Elise, I’ll send you a PM.

David started the topic Unlimited Products and Custom Tabs in the forum Forrager 9 years, 1 month ago
Last week, CFO and product pages got a design refresh that widens them and puts info tabs on your pages right where they should be — at the top. All that extra space has made room for a new “custom tabs” feature that will allow CFO Pro members to greatly customize their listings. Also, say goodbye to the product listing limit!
Unlimited Products…[Read more] -

CFO and product pages just got a makeover! We dropped the sidebar and moved info tabs to the top, which will hopefully make these pages easier to use.

My Baking Shoppe replied to the topic Cream Cheese in the forum California 9 years, 2 months ago
Liz, I make buttercream frosting for my cupcakes using Shortening and Cream Cheese Emulsion from LorAnns. In my opinion and my customers it tastes like cream cheese frosting. I’m not sure what your recipe is but could you use say powdered sugar, the cream cheese emulsion and water to make the icing? Or something like that. By the way, it smells…[Read more]

David replied to the topic Starting Up – Help!! in the forum California 9 years, 2 months ago
Those are some crazy costs for label approval!
How can they not allow you to sell directly outside of San Diego County when the law specifically allows it?

Today we moved our CFO Pro plan out of beta, and it now costs $5 per month. Thanks to everyone who tried it out while it was in beta!

Forrager grew up a little bit today. We just added a Terms of Service and Privacy Policy, which you can check out in the footer.

Brandi posted an update in the group Florida 9 years, 2 months ago
I would like to know where to begin about getting the legislation changed in FL regarding our guidelines. Any suggestions? There’s a large community of bakers who have a passion for baking but our limits for sales is on a hobby level. I’m a stay at home mom to a special needs son, I can’t have a 9-5 job, but would love to be able to bring in more…[Read more]

Usually amendments start with someone like you. There is a huge number of home bakers in Florida so I think someone just needs to get the ball rolling. Here’s an article about amending a cottage food law: http://forrager.com/2015/05/lobbying-amending-cottage-food-law/

PERFECT! Thanks! This is exactly what I needed! Do you know of any groups/people in FL that have started a movement already? This article suggests to do a thorough search to see if there are any others. I’m just not sure where to start on that either. :-/

You could try doing a Google search for cottage food law petitions. I don’t know of anyone currently working on Florida’s law.

Yes, I would say so. If your primary intention is to sell dog treats, I’d recommend you use the systems established for that type of business. Just for the record, every type of pet food should also be edible by humans. You might try selling them under-the-table for a couple months to verify that there is demand for your dog treats.
My first batch flew out the door! I definitely think there is a market for them. I agree that every dog food should be edible by humans, but I can guarantee that the majority of store brand dog foods are horrible for dogs! My Jack Russell is highly allergic to any dog food containing grains, corn, chicken, beef. He scratches like a maniac.…[Read more]
