I've had a lot of questions about my home bakery lately so I thought I'd sit down to chat and give you some tips and tricks on opening a home bakery business, micro bakery or really any creative business! whether that's selling cakes, selling cookies, or any food-based home business.

Great tips. My 13 yo daughter recently started with her own baking business and just completed her first custom cake order. Two things I advised her to do is 1) Calculate the time it takes to do the job and make sure you make enough profit to make it worth your time, and 2) Specialize in the things you know you do well. She's really good at cake decorating, and she makes great blueberry and apple pies. She plans to stick to those three products for now and grow the business gradually -- taking limited orders that she knows she has time to fill. It's a great learning experience where she has been challenged to apply all the things she learns in school -- math, science, art, communications, etc.

Thank you for this! I’m 17 and i’ve always had a passion for baking and I just started up my cake business i’ve only really sold 3 cakes so far, and i’m having trouble getting customers even with word of mouth, making cakes for family/friends, promoting on social media, trying to give samples to my mom for her to take to work. I almost feel like no one takes me seriously because i’m so young and it’s just so frustrating.

That sounds so frustrating Ashlynn. I know the feeling, when people are like "oh thats cute she has a little cake business". I think its our strength though, to be underestimated. For a long time i only sold 1-2 cakes a month. But it gave me time to experiment and watch youtube (which you're already doing) and figure out what makes me unique. I also started with a lot of kids birthday parties because parents are always in need of treats (espec. nut-free). Best of luck! feel free to email or message me on ig! I'd love to see your work

Hi Paola, In my experience my collaborations usually happen with people I know and admire or are friends with. I’ve met a lot people through interacting with other people’s work. Some people of we’ve worked together before I’ll pitch ideas. Sometimes it works sometimes it doesn’t. For social media, just doing it. It took me years to figure out. I watch videos but mostly just remembering to post a few times a week. Everyday is too much for me! I also like the link in bio newsletter for social media management 💗 hope this helps

I already have a niche being that I make different flavors i have like 12 different ones I've been working on universal base recipes to keep cost low for like a year. My problem is transportation because I don't have a vehicle so I know I won't have nearly as much traction.

Two videos I would like to see are (if you haven’t made them already): What restaurant supply store you go to (if it’s a chain or online) And How to optimize baking time. Essentially how to get faster at baking. 15 minute prep time is usually 30-40 minutes for me. Not sure what I’m doing wrong. Maybe better organization and access to kitchen tools?

I hear you on the food allergies - for the last almost 8 years I have been only able to eat banana smoothies and organic non GMO eggs - I can have butternut squash with honey and pink salt and butternut squash soup with carrots and honey - but that is it. (Antibiotics did me in) but I have been able to bake/cook again without my throat, mouth and all that swell up - so now I'm starting up a home bakery. But I can't eat a single bite of anything - I have to have my husband or son taste test my baked goods. But I know what you mean about socializing and food - I just bring my smoothies with me everywhere I go - it's tough - but I just look at food a lot differently now - it's just food - anyhow - love your channel -

You still have so much control over texture and and how it looks! Best of luck 💗

Thanks!!! :)
@LaurenMcGowan
@LaurenMcGowan 3 жыл бұрын
Hi! I think you have two options. Option 1 is to focus on showing your parents how responsible you're going to be. You could take an online health and safety course, show them your research on selling cookies in your area, etc. I'd also show them how you plan to set work/school boundaries. An after school job could be about 10 hrs/ week so spending about this much time on your business could help. That balance is such an important skill. Option 2, would be to see if you could work at a bakery, or ask to stage or shadow. But this option may be too much time/ not right for you! I hope things go well! Keep me updated

Hi! Congrats on making it to kitchen manager! I never went to culinary school. I actually have a degree in communications + minor in english. I thought i wanted to be a food writer (still do kinda). for me, i just tried a bunch of stuff. both in food and other industries. there's so much pressure to feel like you know what you're doing. You have so much time to try stuff and be messy. What are the parts about food that you love? And the industry? I'm happy I didn't go to culinary school. I think it makes me aware of less "rules" in cooking and allows me to be more creative and dream. I hope this ramble helps. Keep me updated

I am also gluten and dairy free too. I had an allergic reaction in 2011, where I was sick and I was eating constantly with one food. Until I went for allergy testing and found out I have an allergy to gluten. Then 2 years ago, I went for another allergy testing and found out I am allergic to dairy and walnuts.

I was thinking about selling cookies at the farmer's market, but they told me they don't accept home cottage law stuff. So I figured I would need to rent out a commercial kitchen by the month and wait until I had $20,000 saved up to start everything. But you said you run your bakery from an apartment I think?...like do I do all wrong, and have to figure out another way instead or something, or like what should I do?

It varies by state for the ability to sell home baked items. Check your specific state's laws and guidelines and also other farmer's market, pop-up, or vendor marts rules.

Hi, I just happened to start watching you before I realized you were from Montreal, I am in Quebec. I went to pastry school forever ago and have only now started to really attempt to start a business school. Do you know what the provincial laws are about opening an at home bakery? I can’t seem to figure it out.

I think you can find some info on your city’s city hall website, but probably better off going in person and asking the right questions of the right peopl lol

How much can I realistically expect to take home every month if I am getting like 10-15 orders every week and I’m a premium priced bakery? As in, I focus on quality ingredients etc. I just need a ballpark number to know if this is even a realistic route for me. And is 10-15 orders a week a lot to you? That’s the number I have in my head for me to be maxed out
