It depends on what state you live in. 18 states allow in-state shipping. Most of the people selling homemade food on Etsy are doing so illegally.

Hi, do you have any low fare liability insurance to advise to me in Florida? I haven’t found anything under $82.00 a month.

Am I correct in thinking I cannot use cream cheese frosting as a cottage food operation? I am in Virginia, and I see that Buttercream frostings are considered “borderline” meaning acceptable. Does cream cheese frosting require refrigeration for the finished baked good?

David Crabill replied to the topic Allowed and prohibitive items in the forum Forrager 4 years, 11 months ago
Adding to what Cottage Oven said, I only add items that I can confirm. If I can’t confirm whether an item is allowed or prohibited, I don’t add it to either list. I list the source info in the Resources section of the page.
If a state’s law specifically says that it only allows baked goods, then I can confirm that anything non-baked is prohibited.
Cottage Oven replied to the topic Allowed and prohibitive items in the forum Forrager 4 years, 11 months ago
Each state sets its limitations and usually posts that information somewhere. For example, in Florida, it is handled by the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services. Their website is http://freshfromflorida.com and if you type “cottage food” into their search bar, you’ll get a link to the basic information…[Read more]

How or where do you obtain Forrager information regarding specific allowable and prohibitive items? So far, this is the only source reference regarding such specific items. Are these lists speculative based on what is allowed? For example, a state only allows baked items. This doesn’t go into what it does not allow. Yet there is a specific list o…[Read more]
