Well, I entered the 'National Zesty Best' in 2006 and won first place in the Ameture BBQ-Hot division. I printed out the entry form to fill it out. The real world does not have a spell checker. Since then, I have entered a few locally regional conmtests and have won a few with different...

Here is my new logo... What do you think??? Dante's Devine Gourmet Foods I've been offline for some time but I'm back and going strong. A little logo background: Dante's "Divine Comedy" (Yes, I know I spelled the company's name wrong.) The 9 rings (yes, there are 9!) represent the 9 levels of...

Well, when I went for the business license I had no problem getting it, they said I had to be in an approved kitchen and the county health inspector approved the whole thing. It could be that I live in a very rural county, (more cows than people... really!) should I be investigating this more...

I do live in Nevada. :D I checked with my wife and did misunderstand the part about remaining one type. Thanks

I would like to know the opinions of all on this subject. Seems that there is much talk about the whole LLC thing and how it is riding a wave but I talked to an accountant about setting up my business and she talked more about a Sub-chapter S Corp. I do realize that going that route is more...

50 Gallons would be very acceptable! Did not mean to imply I wanted to get tiny quantities. I have been doing small amounts in a restaurant kitchen (20 gallon steam kettle) and wanted to move up and on with this venture. I wanted to move from the homecanned mason jar to the professional packaged...

I am doing BBQ sauce first but I will start pulling from my hot sauce collection to read the back labels. Thanks

I am in search of a co-packer. I will have tons of questions first and will not be ready to produce until feb. or march. I want to get the rest of my paperwork done first. Also would like to find one willing to ask me questions about thingsw I am to new in this business to think about. I've been...

All of the product pictures are fakes. I made them in Photoshop. They are there to show the look and for placement. I will be putting up actual pictures as the products become available. Will make sure they look professional. The Heat levels pictures are in redesign at this moment. Those were...

I'm looking for some opinions of my website. First the preliminaries... New company, products to start coming out next spring (fingers crossed). Lots of pages but not selling yet. Looking for views on how interesting, makes you want to come back, MAKES YOU WANT TO BUY SOMETHING!!!!!!!! A few...

Fan-tas-tic! One day and I am TOTALLY sold on this site!!!! Thank you all for the information. Get used to seeing me here. Another request. Someone tell me if I should be doing this here or in another section. I would like some critical opinions of my website. Been working hard on it (lots...

O.K. then, Let me understand this. With a co-packer you sign a non-disclouser contract, hand them the recipe, and get a pallet of bottled sauces to pick up when they call you? If so besides ingredients and everything else that they calcualte in the price, how much of the cost is the time it...

Enough islands for all. Heading off to work now... Question one down, 938,874,378 to go!

Will Do! Since I am brand new at this, please forgive any less than brilliant questions. If I were brilliant, I'd be rich, retired, and living in the Caribbean on my private island by now. Thanks

Well, I am making it in a certified kitchen (a restaurant kitchen at present) but I am planning to set up my own place. I wanted to see if I could save some money by getting it bottled somewhere else for a short time or should I go ahead and calculate the bottling equipment expence in now.

I want to know if there are any special regulations or equipment I need to use in the transport of my products to get bottled going at least 150 miles.

Hello, The problem I'm trying to figure out right now is, once I have made my bbq sauce, where do I go to get it bottled? I live in the middle of nowhere, actually you go to nowhere and turn left! (150 miles north of Vegas) I've talked to different bottlers but nobody seems willing to tell me...
