Home baker agency

[Gillis]

Hi all,

My wife used to make cakes for a company called 'mums bake cakes' which sadly is no more. Does anyone on here know of a similar 'agency' that uses home bakers? I've spent more hours than i would want to admit scouring for a similar business but had zero luck (bar mybaker).

Many thanks, Giles

sell direct, you don't need middlemen.

You can try this link https://catalog.data.gov/dataset/listing-of-active-businesses ...if a home baker is legally selling food (and many can from home because state and municipalities will inspect home kitchens) they will have a business license.

I also found this place that explains you can check business listings in your county by going to the county clerk of courts website and searching businesses. Here's there link: https://backgroundcheckrepair.org/how-to-find-bankruptcies-on-public-records-free/

If any of these bakers look like they might be open to selling you should be able to grab their contact information free.

I'm sorry to hear about 'mums bake cakes.' You might want to check out 'Bake Me A Wish' or 'Etsy,' where many home bakers sell their goods. Another option could be 'Goldbelly' if she's looking to reach a broader audience. Additionally, local Facebook groups or the Nextdoor app can be great for finding community-based requests. Setting up an Instagram page or a small website could also directly connect her with potential customers.
