She'll need her kitchen checked out if she's selling commercially

[owdhamer]

Thankyou both, this is the sort of advice she needs.

I remember the WI being up in arms about them having to have Hygiene checks. Quite a few ladies who made jams chutneys etc decided it wasn't worth he hassle, after selling their stuff for years without any problems.

I believe one of the rules is, any home-made cakes etc, like commercial ones, have to be marked whether they contain nuts or other allergic contents.

my pal's daughter is doing well selling jams & cakes at local farmers markets from local produce e.g.dorset raspberry jam etc but believe me its hard work.
