Sorry I didn’t see this sooner, Wanda! Try entering “Spiro, OK”, and that should work.

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.

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.

Any ideas on caramel (candied) apples? I’m going to try them this week–they’re so perfect for fall! I just don’t want them to flop. :)

Every county is a little different. You probably do need to register a business to get a Class B permit in LA, but it shouldn’t be hard to do. At the very least, you can just become a sole proprietorship under your name. When you submit your permit application to the health dept, they will tell you whether you need to get registered with the county first.

Dylan, thanks so much for getting in touch with me. I’ll address each point below, but first, I think it’s important to note that Forrager is not intended to be totally comprehensive of all information for starting a CFO. There is plenty of additional info that could go on any given law page, but I’ve just tried to include the essentials so that…[Read more]

The best way to protect a name is through trademarking, but first, I would highly recommend that you don’t worry about that until you are making substantial revenue from your business. Unless you are making waves in your industry, you don’t give people much reason to steal your name. You should be so lucky for people to care about your business…[Read more]

Hi all, I’m new to this site so bear with me if I may be asking a redundant question. I am a pet sitter, and recently started making dog treats. My treats are human grade: gluten free flour, ground flaxseed, eggs, pumpkin puree, and peanut butter. I understand that I cannot sell “dog food” under the cottage law, but I am thinking of labeling…[Read more]
Yes, I would say so. If your primary intention is to sell dog treats, I’d recommend you use the systems established for that type of business. Just for the record, every type of pet food should also be edible by humans. You might try selling them under-the-table for a couple months to verify that there is demand for your dog treats.
My first batch flew out the door! I definitely think there is a market for them. I agree that every dog food should be edible by humans, but I can guarantee that the majority of store brand dog foods are horrible for dogs! My Jack Russell is highly allergic to any dog food containing grains, corn, chicken, beef. He scratches like a maniac.…[Read more]

From a business perspective, they’re awesome. I think many people find that they sell well.
But technically, you are not supposed to sell unbaked, uncanned, cut fresh fruit without the proper licensing, so sometimes, health depts take issue with someone puncturing the apple with a stick. Non-punctured caramel apples are definitely approved, and I…[Read more]
Okie dokie, thanks. As far as I was aware, there weren’t any stipulations on them, whether they were punctured or not. But I’ll double check on that.
