Once you have your degree and know your way around the kitchen, you may decide to embark on your own cake decorating business. A cake decorating business can be done either from the home or in a bakery. If you are baking cakes for neighbors at home, you can build up quite a business by word of mouth. If your cakes are good, pretty and you are reliable, you can make a few extra dollars making and decorating cakes for family and friends.

You are taking a bit of a risk when doing this, and you should be aware of the legal implications. If someone gets sick from one of your cakes, they can sue you. You may even lose your home. Baking cakes for the neighbors for a few extra bucks may seem like a fun idea, but it can also land you into trouble as you are assuming liability.

You are also limited when it comes to getting business. You cannot advertise such a business. Most states and municipalities have health codes when it comes to selling food from your home. You will need to have a license and, in most cases, a separate kitchen where the cakes are made. The kitchen will be subjected to health inspections periodically.

If you want to have a large cake decorating business and see yourself as a true artist, you can work outside of your home. You may begin with selling cakes to neighbors, but then add a kitchen so that you can bake in your home with a license. You will also have to make sure that your municipality will allow you to work a business out of your home.

Once you have a business license, the next thing you should do is incorporate your business. People rarely get violently ill from cakes, but butter cream, if left out of the refrigerator, can cause salmonella. You do not want to risk someone suing you and taking your home, so incorporate your business. A corporation is a separate entity. As long as you practice your business under the corporation, you cannot be sued personally if something goes wrong.

If you are successful at making cakes, the next step is to move to a storefront where you can get more exposure. Advertising cake decorating in the local newspaper is difficult. This is one business that goes by word of mouth. You can have a grand opening of your business and invite people to come in and sample your cakes. Be sure to have some sample cakes that are exquisitely decorated on hand for view. This will give the people in your area an idea about your business and give them a chance to get to know you.

Join the local chamber of commerce. This is another way to get to know others in the area. Again, this is a business that relies on world of mouth. If you want to have your own cake decorating business, you are going to have to break out of your shell and get to know some new people. The more people who know you as "the cake lady" or "the cake man," the better. You want them to associate you with your business.
