Rules for bakers
Wedding cakes may be home-baked, under strict regulations
 
Return to articles index | Your wedding cake | Health rules for caterers | NC liquor laws
 

   Whether your wedding cake comes from a commercial bakery or a home-based cake designer, it should be produced according to the same health and safety standards, enforced by state regulators.
    The N.C. Department of Agriculture oversees all facilities preparing packaged foods for sale, including bakeries. It allows such “low-risk” baked goods as cakes and cookies to be prepared in home kitchens, if they meet all the state rules.
    A home baker’s kitchen must be inspected and the water supply tested. Foods for sale must be prepared at different times from when family meals are cooked.
    One of the strictest rules is a total ban on any pets in the home at any time. That applies not only to dogs and cats, but to birds, fish and any other animals.
