I’ve removed the captcha test for now, until I can figure out what’s going on with it.

Rex, sorry you’re having trouble. There is also an audio option on the captcha test, in case that helps. I am going to send you an email about this.

I would like to label my sauces for resale. What licenses and insurance would I need?

I think that using a convection oven (but not a microwave) to bake would be fine. Items that are not baked, like fudge, no bake cookies, and no bake candy, would not be allowed.

Sorry I didn’t see this sooner, Wanda! Try entering “Spiro, OK”, and that should work.

No, you can only sell food from your home if your cottage food law allows it. A few states do allow CFOs to use commercial kitchens if they want to, but the items you can sell from home would still be limited to those your cottage food law allows.

Well I have no experience with melting pots, but I know that chocolate melts at 90 degrees or below. I found some info online that indicates that you probably don’t have a faulty machine:

Any ideas on caramel (candied) apples? I’m going to try them this week–they’re so perfect for fall! I just don’t want them to flop. :)

David replied to the topic name of business in the forum Candy 10 years, 1 month ago
Every county is a little different. You probably do need to register a business to get a Class B permit in LA, but it shouldn’t be hard to do. At the very least, you can just become a sole proprietorship under your name. When you submit your permit application to the health dept, they will tell you whether you need to get registered with the county first.

I’ll address each point below, but first, I think it’s important to note that Forrager is not intended to be totally comprehensive of all information for starting a CFO. There is plenty of additional info that could go on any given law page, but I’ve just tried to include the essentials so that…[Read more]

Sorry, I don’t have any experience with those. Have you tried asking on the Wilton discussion forums?

From a business perspective, they’re awesome. I think many people find that they sell well.
But technically, you are not supposed to sell unbaked, uncanned, cut fresh fruit without the proper licensing, so sometimes, health depts take issue with someone puncturing the apple with a stick. Non-punctured caramel apples are definitely approved, and I…[Read more]
Okie dokie, thanks. As far as I was aware, there weren’t any stipulations on them, whether they were punctured or not. But I’ll double check on that.
