Work
at Home Ideas: Cake
Decorator
Are you a good cook who is creative in the
kitchen? Maybe you've already had some experience baking and
decorating cakes for family and friends' birthdays. Perhaps you
could make some money while you're at it!
Getting Started: $100-$500
for classes and basic supplies. Check with your state's health department
for any requirements. Health department certification can involve
quite a bit of remodeling. Many states require a separate kitchen with an
outside entrance, three sinks, dish sanitizers, a firewall, etc.
Training Needed: Many
community education programs offer classes in cake decoration. You may
also find classes at your local vocational schools.
Marketing: Word of
mouth is a great way to get started. Let friends and family know of your
new business venture, and offer to create cakes for their birthdays,
graduations, showers, etc. Your work will be your best advertising.
Leave a few business cards along with your cakes for guests who admire your
work.
