Any Advice About Having Both An In-Home Baking Business And An Operation In A Commercial Kitchen For Same Recipe?
Baking By CoffeeCakes Updated 6 Feb 2019 , 3:09am by -K8memphis
I live in Virginia and have just formalized a coffee cake business that is going to operate our of my home under the cottage law - so I am able to sell at farmer's markets and directly to customers.
I have just been offered the opportunity to have my cakes served in a boutique hotel a couple hours from Richmond, where I live. In order to wholesale and then they can resell, I have to be in a commercial kitchen. The exposure with this hotel's client base would be great - and would help my Richmond business too. Crazy question....but could I continue to bake at home and sell the cakes directly like I have been and bake the cakes for the hotel at a nearby certified commercial business? It doesn't make financial sense for me right now to work exclusively out of a commercial kitchen...
Any ideas?
Thanks so much!
