In most states, that would not be allowed since cut potatoes are perishable foods, whether raw or cooked.
However, in your state of Illinois, this is allowed! The main caveat is that you cannot ship them… you can only sell them directly to customers. I suggest reading through the notes in Illinois’ food section to better understand what is and…[Read more]

Hi – I am looking to sell sliced potatoes that would be covered in Salt/Olive Oil. Do you know if I fall under the Cottage Food Law? The potatoes would be bought from a grocery store.

David Crabill replied to the topic list of what we can sell in the forum Illinois 1 year, 2 months ago
Yes, you can sell popcorn, nuts, candy, and most nonperishable snack foods.
However, you can only produce from your primary residence. I believe the health dept would determine that a motel room’s kitchen — even one that you use for the majority of the year — would not qualify for cottage food production.

hi, I am I Utah. I would like to make Chai Tea and sell to local coffee houses etc. Is this allowed? I know there are two routes in Utah, looks like it may be allowed under the Food Freedom Law, but then it would not be legal to sell wholesale. Hum? Should I call the Cottage Food coordinator and ask? Thanks!

David Crabill replied to the topic Muffins w/ no added sugar in the forum Bread 2 years ago
Yes they should be allowed. You just want to make sure they are thoroughly baked and don’t have too much moisture that could cause spoilage. If your product is fine to leave at room temperature for 24 hours, then it’s a nonperishable food. Perishable foods should be refrigerated within 2 hours.

I’m in California so I’m not familiar with TX laws but in CA it would be qualified for CFO.

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!

You’re correct. This would be allowed to sell directly to people under the food freedom law, but it won’t be allowed to sell it to coffee houses. I suggest starting to sell under the food freedom law, and then moving to a commercial kitchen when you’re ready to grow.
