questions on the home food processing exemptions
Hello everyone! I am trying to navigate the requirements to sell baked goods under the food processing exemptions. I see that we cannot sell on-line (from my understanding, you can advertise but not conduct any money transactions on-line), we do not have to pay the annual $40 to VDACS but I cannot…[Read more]

There’s a good chance that you need to get a general business license from your city or county, and they might be able to answer tax questions.

I have not heard of any specific restrictions against using buttercream frosting or using meringue powder.

Aaron Byram started the topic Extract Sales Requirements? in the forum Colorado 1 year, 10 months ago

Just trying to do my research on a couple things:
1). Can an individual sell various flavored extracts at local farmers markets?
2). If so, what is required by law to be able to do so?

Any help in pointing me the right direction would be awesome.
Thanks.

HI, Lisa. Sorry I saved the email notification, but the weeks got away from me. Unfortunately, you are correct that we aren’t allowed online sales where there is a shopping cart and payment option. I, too, have a website and a Facebook page (as well as a Google business profile and Instagram). I post my menu options in the various places and…[Read more]
