HMMMM. Odd I know two ladies here in my town that make cakes and run a small cake making business out of their homes (in fact one of those ladies has made my kids B-Day cakes for years) . It is like any other home business (I have my own too). However they have to report their income on their taxes. Otherwise, I don’t know how it can be illegal. Don’t go by what people say, call the BBB and find out what the laws and regulations are. I am sure you can still follow your dream and bake those yummy cakes. obtaining a home business license might solve your problems too. I only had to file for a Tax ID number (for a home business) so I could file at the end of each year and pay my taxes due to the state. Simple as that. Good luck to you.

Under what law or category of law is it illegal? I don’t think its illegal to run a cake business…its only illegal to run a business and then not put the income on your tax returns. I bet that’s what got the people in trouble.

Comments on: Home cake decorating business: Illegal in many states, but people seem to still do it? How, why?
