CDPHE is holding what they are calling Cottage Food Stakeholder group meetings on a monthly basis in order to hear from cottage food producers/vendors. The CDPHE wants input into setting up the guidelines for the “pickled vegetables” products that will be Tier 2 food product they can make and sell but probably not until mid-2016.

David replied to the topic Making doughnuts in CO in the forum Colorado 10 years ago
CO’s health dept has chosen not to include donuts on their allowed list, which means they’re probably not allowed unless they’re baked donuts. I don’t think jam, jelly, or frosting would be an issue… I believe that anything fried would not be allowed. http://forrager.com/faq/#commercial

I have a questions regarding making doughnuts in the state of CO. First question, do doughnuts fall within the cottage law in CO and second question is what are the limits if any, regarding filled doughnuts as in Jelly, Jam and/or frosting. Any advice/help is greatly appreciated, thank you.

Quick question– can I bake and sell my pumpkin and pecan pies to my co-workers at work without functioning as a cottage industry? In other words, if custard or cream-based products are prohibited under cottage industry regs, is there any way to legally bake and sell them? Thanks.

Katherine, I also recommend thoroughly reading the Colorado law page, but the short answer is “no”, you do not need a license from the health dept, though you may need other licenses to start your business. http://forrager.com/faq/#starting

I just recently moved to Arvada, CO, do I need to get a cottage food license to sell cakes? I am so lost on where to start.

The only way to legally bake and sell them is to use a commercial kitchen and get the proper licensing. http://forrager.com/faq/#commercial
