Including how to form an LLC, business licenses, sales taxes, and an in-depth discussion about the recently updated Cottage Food Law. The Alabama Cottage Food Law went into effect in 2014 and was revised in 2021. The law states that individuals can produce certain nonhazardous foods in their homes. The new law defines a cottage food as a non-potentially hazardous food that has been prepared in a person’s home that does not require time and temperature control for safety. The law excludes products that use meat, poultry, or fish. Foods that can be sold directly to the consumer: Candies Jams, jellies, fruit preserves, marmalade Dried herbs and herb mixes made from commercially prepared ingredients Baked goods: cakes, cookies, glazed pastries, danish pastries, doughnuts, breads, pies, cheese straws Candied or roasted nuts Popcorn (candied, coated, flavored) Spices (nonhazardous and considered generally recognized as safe or GRAS by the US Food and Drug Administration) Roasted coffee Dried baking mixes Chocolate or caramel-covered fruit Register Here NOTE: A zoom link will be sent to you the day before the event.
