My challenge is getting my landlord to approve my request to do Cottage Food Business at home. What are my other options if he denies my request? It’s not easy looking for rental places now because they’re just expensive. Any thoughts?
I did.. and I'm just getting to the marketing portion after finally developing "collections". I understood early I needed to do all types of cookies. Printed/edible printing, icing (still perfecting this skill), drop cookies like chocolate chip, sugar cookies. Never got around to after spending time on recipes and making them, marketing. If I don't have product to showcase no point in working on marketing. Im working on Christmas now and will jump right into Valentine's day before Thanksgiving. It's hard doing this all alone.
Hello guys I hope everyone doing well and thank you Sir for your beautiful video. I’m originally Persian living in San Antonio Texas, I can make almost all sort of Persian cookies definitely a new taste here in US I’m in the middle of trying to open a Persian cookies yum online business i hope this business keep growing. Please wish me good luck 👍🏻
My dream is to have a cookie business. I created a really yummy grain free and vegan cookie and I feel like I haven’t tasted one like it! I’ve tested it on family and friends and they are addicted. I really want to get started in creating a business but don’t know where to start. Do you have any courses or ways I can receive help? Thanks for the inspiration!
I’m a bodybuilder and trainer on the side. I created a protein cookie and I sell mine at gyms. I bet your cookie would do well at gyms too!Just set up a little booth at different gyms. ❤
Unfortunately, the only way to sell home-baked cookies to buyers is where they can see them. The only other way is like they do in Starbucks or other stores. If you are selling directly to the end-user. You can put one cookie out on display and when people buy that cookie or cookies, you take them from underneath or from a closed plastic storage bin and can put them in a paper bag or box. If you are selling your items to a deli, bagel store or coffee shop to ve sold individually. They sell best if they can be seen, meaning clear plastic wrappings. Stiff cellophane bags rather than plastic wrap.
true the profit margin is a HUGE challenge to talk about due to the u=numerous aspects that come into play with costs. From packaging, labor etc. a good rule of multiple would be 2 to 2.5 x the costs. so say 24 cookies costs $2.00 if your selling local not online be around $9.99 or $12.00 depending also on ingred:
Just because you're allowed to make cookies in your home in your state doesn't mean you're allowed to sell them to people in other states. Crossing state lines still means something; if you're caught, you can be fined. Also, $12K sounds great, but between the ingredients, packaging, shipping, marketing and so on... I only make dough one day and bake one day per week to stock a table at a storefront farmer's market and packaging costs really eat into my sales.
hello thanks for the comment actually in some states you can even under cottage food laws and there are several states gat are voting on extending this to other states allowing interstate sales. Also I run a commercial bakery and have been online for 14 years there is a HUGE market online for all baked goods.
I am in Las Vegas Nevada and want to start a cookie business. Would you be able to make a video or give any advice or suggestions on how to start this cottage food law home business and how I could Be able to start the online business and shipping and handling cookies in this new business. Thank you
Hi! I just need clarification about number 2. I emailed Cottage Food Law authorities about selling pastries like cookies or pies, among other products. The man didn't mention having a permit/ or license to sell from home, or am I wrong?
In Arizona you just need a food handler card, and you have to register with the cottage food program, and list on your product certain things and a disclaimer saying that this was not produced in a commercial kitchen blah blah blah. You don't need a license or permit, other than the food handler card and registration with the state cottage food program. It's probably similar in TX.
I am looking for the best online cookie course with all the recipes ready. Please can anyone help me? I LOVE baking!!! And i really need a job. Please help me find an online course that teaches all the great cookie recipes ❤❤❤ Thank you everyone

I have a heat-sealer with 5x7 bags for singles, and they still go stale. I find packaging very frustrating.
Aloha, do you have a video that shows how to effectively package cookies to be shipped?
yes on my other food channel here it is this is how I ship my cookies for 13 years running: th-cam.com/video/ldL2j1gRW0E/w-d-xo.html
great video but the one big thing missing is the topic of profit. With $12K revenue, what's a reasonable amount of net profit?

Cottage kitchen in my state you can’t ship out of state or resale
What's a reasonable number of cookie flavors when starting your business?
I have recommended to my clients 4-5 customers like variety so this is a good starting point
My state michigan, cottage laws say that I can only sell face to face, and also 24000 a year. Which state allows online sales ?
there are only a few i know Florida does, California and others but many are within the state online
