As long as it doesn’t contain meat, I believe you could set yourself up as a home food processing operation: http://forrager.com/law/virginia-home-food-processing-operation/

Debbie Utley-Gates started the topic Pancake and Waffle Mix in the forum Dry Goods 10 years, 3 months ago

As a Personal Chef, I often prepare breakfast items, in the client’s home, which can be frozen and enjoyed at a later date. As of now, I am combining all of the ingredients in the client’s kitchen. It would be much easier and a great time saver to mix the dry ingredients at (my) home and simply add the wet ingredients when I’m ready to prepare -…[Read more]

That wouldn’t be allowed in TN, but it should be possible in VA if you set yourself up as a home food processing operation: http://forrager.com/law/virginia-home-food-processing-operation/

  Okay, that makes sense, and since it’s regulated by the USDA, not VA’s ag dept, I can see how the home food processing license would not be sufficient. Thanks for the info!
