I have a question for the group. Can you sell homemade items, that are properly sealed (like homemade syrup that has been canned to seal the jar) to restaurants for use in their food or drink production?

David Crabill replied to the topic Selling Homemade Vanilla Extracts in the forum Arkansas 2 years, 7 months ago
From my reading of their guide, I’d say that it’s unlikely that extracts are allowed. There are definitely restrictions on selling most anything that is flavored with alcohol (except candy which can contain 5% or less). However, they don’t clearly state that an extract is prohibited. My guess is that to sell an extract, you’d need a separate…[Read more]

There have been some recent changes to how states are requiring you to pay sales tax and because it is food, it isn’t the same as other products. Whether you are selling…[Read more]

David Crabill replied to the topic Salsa and other Acidic Foods in the forum Arkansas 3 years ago
I don’t think the method of canning matters so much. The main thing is making sure that the pH is at 4.6 or below. There are 3 methods for ensuring the pH, and you must use one of them. There are some other requirements for acidified foods, like including the batch number and date on the label. I’d recommend reading through all of the info on the…[Read more]

Arkansas is one of the best states out there, but they do not allow homemade food items to be sold in (or to) restaurants. There’s no legal way around this, outside of building a commercial kitchen into your home, which I wouldn’t recommend until your business is quite large.
