Jill has been baking since the age of nine and has produced dairy-free goods for over twenty years. GingerKakes specializes in dairy-free* baked goods. In fact, all our baked goods are always dairy free*. It's a little place of heaven for those who, by choice or by necessity, need to keep dairy off the menu. We can accommodate your food allergy or intolerance by request! Our goods contain thoughtf
ully selected ingredients and are home-crafted. The result is delicious and satisfying baked goods. GingerKakes operates under Michigan’s Cottage Food Law. This law allows residents to prepare and store certain foods in a home kitchen. “Under the Cottage Food Law, non-potentially hazardous foods that do not require time and/or temperature control for safety can be produced in a home kitchen (the kitchen of the person's primary domestic residence) for direct sale to customers at farmers markets, farm markets, roadside stands or other direct markets. The products can't be sold to retail stores; restaurants; over the Internet; by mail order; or to wholesalers, brokers or other food distributors who resell foods.” Recent changes do now allow us to take orders over the phone but have to be delivered in person to the customer. Jill has completed the Cottage Food Law Food Safety Training and received a certificate. Cottage Food Law Food Safety training educates on preparing and selling foods under the Cottage Food Law, producing a safe food product, production, packaging and labeling, storing and transporting.
