• If your cake baking skill and talent is praised
  by a multitude of your friends and family
  members, then its about time to give it a
  serious thought about starting your own cake
  shop. Talented bakers can start their own shop at
  home by drafting a well-versed business plan that
  fits best with their budget and target market.
  After establishing your own cake shop by the
  below detailed steps, all that will be left is
  your own creativity and taste to play with.

Step 1

• Check from your states Chamber of Commerce the
  license or permits required (if any) to start
  your own cake baking business from home. You may
  also need to check local health departments
  requirements for health and safety measures. The
  concern is some states may restrict you to run a
  business from home or may put limitations on the
  gross sales your cake business can make.

Step 2

• You need to go exclusive or very specific make
  cakes for childrens birthday parties, a wedding,
  a sweet 16 celebration, or just small cupcakes.
  By carefully choosing a niche, you can now think
  of the promotional activities needed for your
  target market.

Step 3

• Ask the local Chamber of Commerce regarding the
  registration of your home business as a legal
  entity in state. Come up with a unique and
  attractive name that instantly catches your
  target markets attention.

Step 4

• If your state requires a commercial kitchen to be
  set as per standards, work with a contractor to
  do the job. The construction of kitchen should
  comprehend with the local and states
  requirements. Regulations normally vary from
  state to state, therefore, it is better to get
  familiar with specific state instructions.

Step 5

• Craft a menu that includes the types of cakes
  your business will bake along with the respective
  pricings. Also create an ordering film for the
  purpose of taking orders, and do add your
  relevant contact information.

Step 6

• Search and purchase ingredients, tools and
  equipment, and supplies to get your baking
  started. If you are planning to take huge orders
  each week, try to buy ingredients in bulk that
  would not need you driving over to market again
  and again.

Step 7

• Hire a graphic designer or anyone with sufficient
  knowledge of Adobe Illustrator to create a
  business logo of your brand along with designing
  brochures and business card templates. The
  brochures should include necessary information
  such as your business name, bakery products,
  ingredients used, ordering instructions for
  customers, delivery time, turnaround time of
  orders, and contact information.

Step 8

• Register yourself to attend local community
  events like food festivals, family fairs, etc.
  Reserving a booth or stall in such events helps
  businesses gain a number of new customers and
  assists in brand promotion. You can even offer
  free samples of your cakes and other products in
  your menu to tempt people in becoming your
  regular customers.
