Fun fact of the day!
Washington state is the most difficult state to be accepted for a cottage food permit.

Not only is it $355 to apply and could get rejected and have to pay again.

But just to apply you have to have all of these things:
- Business license
-food handlers permit
-Every label you could use over the span of the next two years already done so they can be individually approved or rejected.
-sometimes required recipes as well
-Pet & Child management plans
-Pre planned business hours for prep and being open
- Annual Home kitchen inspection. *but also requires to have every label state that my kitchen is not subject to an inspection *
- Annual water testing done 60 days prior to application or renewal
-Kitchen cleaning schedule
-Floor plan of my house, mostly kitchen related with everything labeled as personal or business used

Honestly, I am probably forgetting something too but the point of this post is to put out there that something that can sound so simple to someone is actually a very long process and a lot of work. Its not just "I got a cottage food permit" its I have spent 9 months putting together my cottage food application.

Please respect the people who took the time to do all the right things and Shop small and local. Thank you to all my breadhouse family that does.

Happy 1st day open anniversary to Breadhouse!

My labor of love.

One year, 52 weeks (except the two months I was closed for winter). The 2am sourdough shaping, the exhausted but still have to wash all these dishes nights, the cookies hurting my wrist, the endless receipts and taxes and having to do accounting. Its all worth it in the end to me.

Thank you to everyone who has supported us this last year and all the ones that will support in the future.

10 things you might not know about breadhouse on woodhouse

1. I work a full time job and do breadhouse part time. I spend 40 hours at my everyday job and then I come home and spend 15-20 hours on breadhouse.

2. Breadhouse is one of the very few legal running bread business. Lots of people on Facebook sell bread and cookies and goodies but most of them are not doing it legally. I spent 9 months getting everything ready to legally open my business and you can find my business license and cottage food permit posted on the wall of the bread shed for everyone to see.

3. My bread and cookies have reduced salt compared to others. I have friends and family members with medical issues so I am very conscious of how much salt & sugar are in our food. I use a quarter of the salt recommended in my sourdough and I use unsalted all natural butter for my cookies. Plus, i use pink Himalayan salt for all baking as well.

4. I do not use 100% organic ingredients, but I do try and get the best ingredients that I can. Some things I have to buy organic but other things there really is no difference but price. I try and always purchase the least processed and least chemically additive food that I can buy because I care about what we put into our bodies. All ingredients are shown on the back of each bag so you know what I use and what's in my product.

5. Sourdough takes a long time, not only do I have to feed my two starters every other day to make sure they are in tip top shape to make bread but once its a dough it has to bulk rise for anywhere between 6-10 hours depending on temperature. Then after shaping is concluded it goes into my fridge for 24-48 hours before baking. -the longer it sits in the fridge the more sour the bread will taste-

6. A lot of my ingredients are home made. If I don't like the amount of additives to food that don't need it, I make it myself. I make brown sugar, vanilla, butter, caramel. I am thinking about making my own chocolate chips too, we will see 😁

7. I love supporting other local small businesses! As a bakery I go through a lot of eggs and between my family's chickens and clara mae's chickens they keep me out of the grocery store.

8. I make all my own labels, I design and print and cut and place every single label for my products. Why? Because it matters to me for everything to be authentically me.

9. Left over food from the stand is donated. I bring the left over cookies and bread to other local business around town to show my support for them as much as they do me. Also I am working with Fish in Ellensburg to be able to donate bread to thier kitchen as well.

10. Breadhouse on woodhouse has been open for one whole year! I started this process almost two years ago but we have been officially open for business to the public for one full year on July 16th!

I just want to say thank you to everyone who comes and supports me. Breadhouse may be a lot of manual labor but it brings me a lot of joy and I love supporting our community with good products.
