: I really enjoy baking and was considering renting a kitchen to start selling my product. I'm really only looking to do this as a hobby part time - selling at craft shows, friends, etc. no retail. I found this site and was wondering if anyone could point me in the right direction to get started. Packaging, pricing, mail order etc. Thanks for your help!
Gerard is correct, it would be hard to do part time or as a hobby. The time and financial investments in cookware, perishable food items.... is to great. But if you want to get an idea of how to get into mail order and "stuff" there is a book called "From Kitchen to Market" by Stephen Hall - you can prob. get it at your local library.
