Hannah J started the topic Muffins w/ no added sugar in the forum Bread 2 years, 8 months ago
Hello!
I’ve been interested in starting a cottage food business for a while but am not quite sure if my product would qualify.
I want to make naturally sweetened muffins. These have no added sugar and get their sweetness and flavor from fruit (banana, apple, blueberry, etc) and spices. Since I feed these to my young children, I do not leave t…[Read more]

This is an old post, but in case anyone else is wondering… it looks like Oregon requires you to have a domestic kitchen license (not a cottage industry license) to sell donuts. https://forrager.com/law/oregon-domestic-kitchen/ Check out ‘laws’ tab on this website to explore what is allowed under each type of license in Oregon. Cheers!

Hello everyone, new to the group. Leveraging the new law that came into effect in January, we are intending to have a cottage industry selling various products that have ingredients from our permaculture-designed yard, including greens, herbs, fruit, etc. Looking forward to learning and sharing as we go.

Assuming your pudding has dairy and/or eggs in it, no, it would not be allowed under IL’s cottage food law. You’d need to produce it in a commercial kitchen. See the notes below the allowed foods list: https://forrager.com/law/illinois/#food

Sari Kimbell started the topic Sales Tax Workshop for Packaged Food Makers (Bread) in the forum Bread 2 years, 9 months ago
One of the things I see a lot of folks get wrong is their sales tax reporting. Often they are paying (a lot) when they shouldn’t be paying anything! Or they aren’t paying at all. There have been some recent changes to how states are requiring you to pay sales tax and because it is food, it isn’t the same as other products. Whether you are selli…[Read more]

David Crabill replied to the topic Going over $1,000 in 2022 in the forum Illinois 3 years, 1 month ago
There is still the $1k limit if your county allows home kitchen operations and you’re selling outside of a farmers market. But as you mentioned, the law is changing and this limit is going away in 2022. If it were me, I’d probably fly under the radar for the next couple of months instead of going through the time and expense of setting up a…[Read more]

Yes that is allowed in NM. You need to take a food safety course and depending on your area, you might need a permit from the health dept as well. Read through this page, especially the Business section: https://forrager.com/law/new-mexico/
