Any Mums out there running their own business making cakes & biscuits?

[zulubump]

I am thinking about starting some sort of venture from home and this is one possibility, probably just selling to local mums initially. I'd like to know how much legislation type stuff I'd need to worry about, eg getting a food hygiene certificate, registering myself as a company selling food. Or am I getting a bit carried away for someone who's just planning to sell some biscuits to local mums?

I think you may have to have separate facilities for cooking for business, but I may be wrong.

I knew someone who did this for a livign and she had two kitchens.

i thought about it and as soon as i heard the words 'insurance'immediately decided against it! good luck if you go for it

Thanks for replies so far. Sounds like I need ComeOVeneer's advice...

definitely stalk CoV as she is fairly well down the line with this.
