There are many food and drug laws that you will need to understand before you start selling your homemade food products. To make sure that you are following all the federal laws and regulations for selling food products it is important that you read through several different FDA documents. The first document that you will want to read is the Overview of FDA’s Food and Cosmetic Regulatory Responsibilities. This document will outline the legal requirements that impact the manufacturing and distributing of your food product. You will also want to read through the Food Allergen Labeling and Consumer Protection Act of 2004. This document will explain what ingredients and warning you will need to include on your labels.
In addition to these documents you will also want to read through the following FDA documents: Current Good Manufacturing Practice in Manufacturing, Packing, or Holding Human Food; A Guide to Self Inspection for the Smaller Food Processor and Warehouse; Inspecting Incoming Food Materials; A Food Labeling Guide, Small Business Food Labeling Exemptions; and the FDA Nutrition Labeling Manual – A Guide for Developing and Using Data Bases. All of these documents, as well as several others, can be found on the FDA website located at.
hope this was helpful.
