Dumb Question I'm Sure...fl Laws & Breaking Them

Ok, I've really been trying to get on my feet legally...but I'm quite frustrated. I know personally, at least 3 people who bake/decorate and sell from their homes even though it is not legal in FL (or GA). The two of them that I spoke to had no idea that what they were doing was illegal, BTW. And all of them have been doing it for years and years and years (one, for 25+ years) with no issues. So, if I decide to say screw it and just do it anyways, what potential legal repercussions am I looking at?
Not sure of the laws in your state. Tonedna (Edna) is from Florida maybe she can answer if you pm her.
I know it is frustrating. Fortunately I live in a state that legalizes home bakers. Here is some informative reading for you:

Thanks for the links...I'm reading them now. I really didn't mean to make this into a debate. I know that it is both illegal and wrong to do it on the black market, so to speak. I'd really like to be legal and I'm working hard at it...but I'm just to the point of utter frustration at the moment.
Since most likely you won't have insurance. What is stopping someone from suing you, you could lose alot. If those people told you they didn't know, I find that hard to believe.
