What Michigan home bakers can make
Cottage food law only covers foods that are safe at room temperature. That's why some favorites come from licensed bakeries instead.
- Sourdough and yeast breads
- Bagels, rolls and buns
- Quick breads and muffins, including pumpkin and zucchini bread
- Breads with herbs, nuts, or shredded hard cheese baked into the dough
- Breads with dried or freeze-dried fruit and vegetables
- Breads with fresh or frozen vegetables
- Breads with soft cheese or large chunks of cheese
- Sourdough starter itself (the bread is fine, the starter isn't sellable)

Before you order
- Ask what day the baker bakes and when the order window closes.
- Fresh bread is best within a day or two; ask about freezing.
- Look for the ingredient list if you avoid milk, eggs or sesame.
- Every home maker offers a chance to talk before you buy, in person or by video. Use it for custom orders and allergy questions.
