David Crabill replied to the topic Cheeses made from commercially pasteurized milk? in the forum Commercial 7 years, 11 months ago
Angela, I’m sure your mom’s pimento cheese mix is amazing. However, I’m going to be straight up with you… if you or a family member is not willing to market the product, then it’s probably not going to get off the ground. Making amazing products is fairly easy; selling them is very hard — it took me years to learn this. Even Coca Cola still…[Read more]

David Crabill replied to the topic Anybody know of a good copacker that they can recommend for a dog treat company? in the forum Commercial 8 years, 2 months ago
John, could you provide some references to back up your claim? It’s not about the requirements being “more” or “less” — it’s just that the requirements are different because they’re managed by a different dept. I wouldn’t be surprised if some states allow homemade pet food, but I haven’t yet confirmed that any do. Many states require animal feed…[Read more]

As long as you’re using a commercial kitchen, then you should be able to do this with the proper licenses. http://forrager.com/faq/#commercial

Unless you are buying and reselling commercially made a pre-packaged fondant toppers, I don’t think this would be allowed. I’m pretty sure you need to use a commercial kitchen. http://forrager.com/faq/#commercial
David Crabill replied to the topic what can/cannot be added/used in cakes? in the forum Cake 8 years, 4 months ago
You can buy premade items and use them, as long as those items would be allowed if you made them. For instance, if Colorado doesn’t allow frostings that contain dairy, then you couldn’t use a commercially-produced frosting that contains dairy, even if it doesn’t require refrigeration. At least that is my understanding… perhaps the health dept…[Read more]
David Crabill replied to the topic Sales maximums in the forum Cake 8 years, 4 months ago
Your state of Colorado is the only one that has this product-based sales limit.
From my understanding, it’s actually pretty broad, and I think that, at the very least, different flavors of cake would be considered different products. I also think that a chocolate cake and a chocolate cupcake would be considered separate products, but I’m not sure…[Read more]

You’re not going to be able to merge a CFO with a commercial operation. Since your friend has a commercial kitchen, I’d recommend skipping the cottage food law and getting certified as a regular food operation. But it’s sometimes a good idea to deal with the limitations of the cottage food law for the short term until you prove your business concept.

As I understand it, correct me if I am wrong, you can make $10,000 per year on each item sold.
What is the definition of an item?
Is it broad as in cakes?Or can it be broken down into
Occasional cakes
Wedding cakes
Cupcakes
Etc.Thanks

Alex, it depends on where you live, but many states will not allow ganache, since it contains cream.
