Attention Arizona home based bakers and home food processors, the state of Arizona finally has a new website outlining the states cottage food law.http://www.azdhs.gov/phs/oeh/fses/goods/index.htm
Happy Baking!!!
You probably already know that the Florida Cottage Food Bill 7209 was signed by the Governor and passed on June 21st and the effective date is July 1, 2011.
Just an FYI! There are 3 states currently waiting on their Governors to sign and pass their state Cottage Food Laws. The states are Florida, Illinois and Texas (the bills are currently on the Governors' desk). The cottage food law in Washington state should go into effect in late July or early August (it was passed). Bakers are still trying to get support from legislators in California. Keeping your fingers crossed.
Happy Baking !

The Texas Baker’s Bill is on its way to the Governor! Let’s start calling the Governor Tuesday and get this bill signed into law. http://bit.ly/m0DviQ
The governor signed the AZ Cottage Food Law on April 13th, and it is official. The law is tentatively scheduled to go into effect on July 20, 2011 and all rules and regulations should be posted on http://azleg.gov (bookmark & watch for updates).
Hi all, I have a recipe-sharing website, and it would be nice to to have more baking recipes posted on the site. It would be great if you can sign up on the site and post some baking recipes!

Any North Carolina bakers interested in promoting their products might want to check out the Got to Be Festival. I attend every year and it is a great place for food entreprenuers to get exposure.
The Got to Be NC Festival Food Expo Deadline has been extended to March 31, 2010. If you would like to participate in the Food Expo, please contact Myrtle T. Earley at 919-733-7912 ext 231
A new rule requiring permits for homemade foods sellers went into effect on Jan. 1, 2010 in New Mexico.
The permits are mandated by the state Environment Department and will cost $100. This will allow the sale of homemade goods including baked goods, tortillas, jams and jellies, dry mixes and candies.
