Cottage Food Business: Want To Make And Sell Homemade Foods?
June 1, 2012
Escambia County Extension will host a “Starting a Successful Cottage Food Business” program for those that wish to sell food made in their homes.
This program will cover Florida’s new cottage food regulations, marketing, sanitation and time for a question and answer session with staff.
Cottage foods by definition are foods made in the home for resale that do not require refrigeration. These include but are not limited to jams, jellies, preserves, honey, cakes and pies.
The program will be held at the Escambia County Extension office via conference call on Monday, June 4 at 6 p.m. The $5 cost of the program will cover materials and handouts. Pre-registration is required, contact Fran Lainhart at (850) 457-5230 or via email at lainhaf@ufl.edu to register.

A good thing as I suspect that soon, the Cottage Food Business will be the norm.

That means that Cottage Cheese is not a Cottage Food.
