Many cottage food producers wonder if they can sell items with cream cheese frosting.

The short answer is yes; with a caveat. As long as your frosting doesn’t require time or temperature control for safety (TCS) you can use it on your baked goods! The problem is, it’s practically impossible to know if a frosting is TCS without expensive testing.

In our inexpensive e-books we’ve tested over 50 recipes and made the results available to you for a tiny fraction of the cost of testing each recipe. You’ll find recipes for cream cheese frosting, lemon curd, Swiss meringue buttercream, American buttercream, German chocolate cake filling, and more. You can bake and sell with confidence knowing your products are legally allowed under the cottage food law.
