Hello,

Here is a link that will provide the home-based baking rules and regulations.

I teach an online course for home-based bakers and keep you with the laws surrounding which states have cottage laws. You may also PM me if you have specific questions and I can provide you with additional information. You are not allowed to bake from home in all parts of Ohio.
