Hello everyone! So I've been doing cake for about year and half> I really enjoy baking all together and I love learning new cake decorationg tips! I live in a kinda small town and we have a Wal-mart and a HEB(grocery store). A good friend's boss is renting space for $300.00 a month and it is a great little place to open up a small order and pick up bakery! I would have to bake there as well! I was wondering what kind of stove would i have to get to do a small business! I have the city inspector coming to look at the space to see if we could do it! i have alot of people that love my cakes and being in a small town that one has one bakery that people are always complaining about, I believe that this is a great idea! I really have a passion for this and I believe I have the talent( I still have a things that need to be better,but I will get there) If you could share any tips or advice with me that would be great! Would I have to have a large commercial oven and sink? Thank you very much

I think some of the questions you asked about requirements would vary from county to county. I believe there is a thread at the top of the business category that has a link to all the states with info about licensing, etc.

Is there any equipment there? You asked if you needed to buy a large commercial oven so I am wondering what you will cook out of if you don't. For instance, is there a regular one there and you are wondering if you need a larger one for code? Also, I think most counties require the triple sink, etc for a kitchen.

Once you figure out what you need to purchase, craigs list is a good resource for getting used restaurant and baking equipment. They are forever having auctions around here.

Thanks! The inspector came by and look at the space he said it's could work! I hope so, guess I'll wait and see! if it's meant for me God will bless me with it!

So glad to hear it!! Congratulations
