Start your home cupcake business by validating local demand, checking cottage food laws, pricing recipes, setting up a licensed kitchen process, and building a simple sales plan.
Choose the best frosting for cupcakes: buttercream for fluffy sweetness, cream cheese for tang, and ganache for rich chocolate shine.
Store cupcakes overnight in an airtight container at room temperature. Chill only dairy-based frostings, then bring to room temperature before serving.
