Hi everyone :)
I’m new here and am trying to figure out if I can sell vegan nut based cheeses under cottage food laws. I see nuts are okay so how about cheeses made from nuts and other plant based ingredients?

Yes, that should be allowed as long as you are personally selling the items at the concession stand.

CDPHE is holding what they are calling Cottage Food Stakeholder group meetings on a monthly basis in order to hear from cottage food producers/vendors. The CDPHE wants input into setting up the guidelines for the “pickled vegetables” products that will be Tier 2 food product they can make and sell but probably not until mid-2016.
