Who it is for
New Jersey cottage food operators, home bakers, market vendors and small food trucks.
Not the right fit if
You sell outside New Jersey, or you need a health department license decision: your local health department decides.
Why it is different
- Label rules from the NJ Department of Health's cottage food pages (September 2026).
- Picks up where the Recipe Costing workbook stops: market costs, not recipes.
- Excel workbook with a $50,000 sales limit tracker, plus Word files and PDFs.
What is inside
- Cottage food label checklist. The six label items and the required statement, word for word.
- Permit and inspection tracker. CFO permit, renewal, certificate, water test and local event permits.
- Pricing worksheet. Adds packaging, labels, booth fees, card fees and unsold items to ingredient cost.
- Market and event sales log. Brought, came home and sold, by product and event.
