You won’t be able to use the cottage food law, since you are not baking the dough at home. Instead, it sounds like you will have to produce the dough in a commercial kitchen.

My guess is that you won’t be able to do what you envision. If all you are doing is making pizza dough, baking it, and then selling baked pizza crusts (with nothing on them) for customers to pickup, then yes, I’d say this is possible.

Although it may be common for New Yorkers to sell homemade food on Etsy, it is nevertheless illegal. Also, cordials wouldn’t be allowed under the cottage food law for in-person sales. You will need to use a commercial kitchen to produce the cordials. http://forrager.com/faq/#commercial

Betsy, the vinegar wouldn’t be a problem, but I am almost sure that your health dept won’t allow a mustard containing egg. In that case, I don’t think tests are going to help you. If you want to sell a mustard without egg, then you probably won’t need to get it lab tested.

As long as you get a residential kitchen license, you should be able to sell to stores, though I’m not sure if there’s extra licensing required, like a wholesale license.

Vinegars probably aren’t allowed, but I’m not 100% sure, so you should contact the ag dept.

Could one make flavored vinegars in New York. I’m thinking strawberry, blueberry, black raspberry, honey/balsamic, or maple balsamic.
