I ive in Atlanta and my husband and I tried to start a catering business last year. We went through so much red tape with the Dept.of Health to only be tod that they no onger aow food preparation for sell uness you have a commissory (ie. restuarant, seperate kitchen) that has been permitted ny them. We have a mobile kitchen that doesn't have a stove or hood and they said we weren't alowed to cook in our home kitchen or outside the truck (BBQ). The laws in GA just changed last year. Had we appied 6 months earlier, we woud have made the cut under the grandfather clause. |

I live in Michigan and the list says NO. I called my local health Dept . and the guy said he didn't know so they are contacting the Dept of Ag. but I haven't heard anything back. anyone know anything more about Mich law? I don't make enough cakes to afford renting a kitchen somewhere or even putting in another kitchen in my home. |

So the other day I downloaded an e-book about cake business. In the back of the book, it has the guidelines for all states. I printed those pages and scanned to pdf. The book was just published in 2008 so hopefully the information is fairly accurate.
I had to post it as 2 separate files because all of it together was too big. |

It would probably work better if you just click/copy and paste it in here. That type is oo small to read. |

Sorry...I hardly ever post. I'm more of a lurker. I thought it would attach the file so it could be downloaded and viewed. I'll try again. |

Requirements - if not covered by local health dept, must have plans review by state, if approved, kitchen may be built, they will then inspect and issue a permit.

I live in AZ and they wont allow it but I read somewhere on here that she rents a kitchen to do all the baking and then takes it home to decorate it because the health department only cares about the baking part. Is this legal? |

The state of Georgia amended its Food Act in October of 2008. The new amendment is attached below. I spoke to Chris Carter of the Georgia Dept of Agriculture about this change and he said it was a great way for the state to assist food entrepreneurs in starting their baking businesses. You can only sell however at state/government sponsored Farmers' Markets. It's a start! |
