Hi Candice, NY’s laws have expanded and changed a lot recently, even since the pandemic. The cottage food industry has seen tremendous growth in NY in the past year, much more than any other state.

So glad you found the answer! I was going to say that it was really something that needed to be answered by the department itself.
