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.

Hi everyone! Is anyone struggling to get the buzz out to find more customers? What do you find most challenging in marketing your goods?
-
I think getting noticed is hard for any new business. Something that I struggle with is talking up my product at every spare moment, with whomever I meet, and doing so in a way that comes off as authentic and not awkward. Have you found some of your marketing efforts to be successful?

It depends on what state you live in. Have you read about the laws for your state? http://forrager.com/laws/

I’d say it’s pretty doubtful they would allow it, but I’m not sure. You can contact the ag dept at 800-292-3939 or MDA-Info@michigan.gov.

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:
“There are two “on” settings, one is “melt” and the other is “warm”, although they are not labeled (the furthest to the right is the higher of the settings).…

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

Hello, trying to start up a small business with cakes in a jar I have been doing for my family and friends. I know I cannot use any creams in the jars just shelf stable frostings? is this correct? also wanted to know if I’m allowed to make hard candy apples? Is fruit allowed such as an apple covered in hard candy?
-
Yes, you should be able to sell jarred cakes with shelf-stable frosting.
You can sell uncut fruit and you can sell hard candy, so I assume that if you combine the two, that would be allowed. If you cut the apple, it wouldn’t be allowed, and even putting a stick in it might be a problem. You can call the ag dept to check.
Please note that New…[Read more]

David, Do you know which states have laws permitting low sugar jams, jellies, preserves? Thanks, Joanne Littau
Joanne, off the top of my head, I don’t know of any that specifically allow jams and jellies that do not fall under Part 150 of CFR Title 21. Maybe Wisconsin? Their law is pretty loose when it comes to canned goods. Of course, there’s always Wyoming, which allows almost anything. I think most states that allow anything low-sugar would require the…[Read more]
