Make Money Baking Cookies & Cakes

Do you like to bake? If you're looking for a way to make money at home or supplement your existing income, creating and selling baked goods like cakes and cookies from home might be for you (just be sure to check local health laws before you get started).

Many families today are too busy to bake their own cookies and cakes, but need them for family get-togethers like birthdays and anniversaries. They might also need a home-baked cake for a baby shower, school bake sale, or party. You can provide baked goods for special occasions like these and also sell them at local farmers' markets. Write up a creative, professional looking one-page flyer with sample baked goods and prices, and give it out to people you know. If you do a good job baking cakes for a few parties or baby showers, you'll probably get some new business from people that were there, and your enterprise will grow with word-of-mouth advertising.

Be sure to check out the great recipes and advice in the Cake Bible, the Cooky Book, Crazy About Cupcakes, and On Food And Cooking.

Bake your way to a second income!
