Hi! My question is this.
Tennessee does not allow any dairy, eggs, butter or soft cheeses in frosting.
I can’t across a recipe for Ermine Frosting substituting shortening for the called for butter.
If I did this, would that be allowed under current Food Freedom Act?
All of my cupcakes have some kind of dairy in the frosting, which I’m…[Read more]

Putting cake mix on the label is definitely not sufficient. You need to copy the ingredients from the box to put on your label.
Tennessee is one of the only states that doesn’t seem to require things to be individually packaged. But I do think they’d prefer individual packaging where that’s reasonable or expected. A bulk container situation would…[Read more]

Labeling for cupcakes : can I have one place card in front of the items or does everything need to be individually labeled? Also – can I put “ Betty Crocker chocolate cake mix “ as the ingredients? Or does it all need to be copy and pasted from box?

As Davide mentioned: Definitely nothing with garlic in oil unless properly acidified, due to the risk of botulism.
THIS and https://extension.psu.edu/how-to-safely-make-infused-oils have instructions for the acidification, but you should check your own state’s requirements, just in case.

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]

Yes they are allowed. And you would copy the entire ingredient list from the Skittles bag.

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.

I have two questions. I couldn’t find anything about freeze drying. Are freeze dried foods permitted under cottage law?
If so, for name brand items such as Skittles being freeze dried – under ingredients, can I list Skittles, or do I need to copy/paste their ingredients under that section. I read something about sub-ingredients, and I’m a lit…[Read more]
