I’m a substitute teacher (or was, before starting my home baking business). I worked almost full-time as I waited for a real salaried full-time position to open up. That was until the Coronavirus.
I applied for food stamps and was approved. I can’t get unemployment from the school district because I’m not a “real” employee. I’m a sub-contracted educational assistant.
I have a friend who is friends with a health inspector. My friend was telling her friend about my having to get on food stamps and he told her about you.
He knows some of your vendors in town. I believe – two of them. He suggested I consider vending.

LIGHT AT THE END OF THE TUNNEL
I was growing depressed as the weeks went by. I’d call my friend and vent from time to time as I watched the depletion of my entire savings account.
So I looked you up and I found that video you did on baking bread, on starting a home baking business. I’m no stranger to bread and my weight is proof.
But this was the first time in weeks I felt some hope. A light at the end of my tunnel.
BANANA BREAD
You mentioned banana bread in that video and that’s what I did. I baked two loaves, posted the pics as you said.
Less than 24 hours later I had orders for 31 loaves of bread. Thirty One!!!
I bought the ingredients with my food stamp card and I began baking right from my home kitchen.
DOUGH = BREAD = DOUGH
The kind of bread I’m baking goes from dough to bread to dough. As in dough = money. lol
Today I’m making cream cheese banana bread and I’ll send you the recipe if you want to share with others.
HOME BAKING BUSINESS – [UPDATE – 1]
I followed your instructions with the next post and decided to put it in two other local groups. Ben, as of this morning the cheesecake post pre-sold 67 loaves.
One of those is mailing a check because she doesn’t have a smart phone to Venmo me.
Thank you, thank you! I’ve been at this 4 days… posted in 3 groups and have sold 98 loaves. And you’ll be proud of me too! The cheesecake loaves are going for $15.50 each.
I must go and bake. I’ve enlisted my sister in law to help me.
Hot dogs saved your life but you and banana bread and my brand new home baking business are saving mine.
Hugs
– Ms. Lindsey
[UPDATE – 2]
Ben, I know I thanked you but I don’t know if you can possibly realize what you’ve done for me. I was nearly hopeless when I found you.
Although they had suspended my rent, I knew I’d still have to pay it later. My home baking business is paying all my bills and more. I’m off food stamps and have replenished my savings account.
Never in my life – would I have thought that being a school teacher was anything less than a guaranteed job.
The world has changed drastically and although I love teaching, I now am enjoying one of my favorite pastimes as my job.
I’m getting to actually make a real income (more than teaching), from home – doing something I absolutely love.
I’ll probably never go back to teaching. I’ve found my calling. Ben, it’s because of you. I’ll never be beholden to a boss again. Nor an economy crushing virus.
I’ll never have to go job hunting again. I’ll never wonder how I’m going to pay the rent or electrical bills.
I can’t even begin to describe the relief this has brought me. Without your information, I would have never considered this. I wouldn’t know how.
I wouldn’t know about the laws and rules and about the free marketing tips, the options and opportunities.
I’ve even helped three other teachers now and my brother and Sister In Law have got theirs up and running with the jams and jellies.
Biggest Hugs!
START TODAY – NO WAITING
Howdy! I’m Ben. Ms. L is just one of the hundreds I’ve recently helped get started.
Literally! You can start your home baking business TODAY (Home Baking Profits > CLICK To Learn MORE)!
You can follow my instructions and actually have orders today. Ms. Lindsey, – did over $1000 in orders in her first 4 days.
YOU can do the same.
Recently – I helped a family member who’s wife left him. I’m 100% positive their financial situation caused the contention in the marriage. It went from bad to worse over the past few months.
It’s been like watching a slow motion car crash.
Anyway… he needed income. He’s never been someone to hang out in the kitchen but I convinced him to do it.
He started with cookies – 9 days ago.
His 4th sale – 35 dozen cookies! (One dozen for $16)
I encouraged him to do cookies because of a recent interview I shared with a vendor who does one batch of 500 dozen (6,000) cookies – from home.
I knew cookies would be simple enough for him – before moving on to bread loaves.
HOME BAKING BUSINESS – BIG PROFITS!
Recent folks – I’ve helped get started – are doing all sorts of breads, pastries, deserts, jams, jellies, candies, popcorn, kettle corn and more.
One is specializing in vegetable breads like zucchini and carrot breads.
These folks are making huge profits selling locally and even mailing their creations. Ms. L is making about $11 in profits on her cream cheese banana bread – per loaf.
There wouldn’t be over 800 home bakers selling banana bread on Etsy with somewhere around 200 of them that I helped if it didn’t work well.
Even though – this easy course will show you how to sell more right in your town than on Etsy or similar sites.
THE FACTS are that people will pay more for home baked goods with the best ingredients.
THERE IS MORE!
If you want to be – 100% officially self employed, never have a boss again and make a real income that rivals most incomes in the U.S. – then starting a home baking business is your opportunity.

ONE LOAF PAYS FOR IT ALL
Just one loaf of sourdough bread, banana bread or any of these will pay for it all – instantly. I can say all this because I have proof. 1000’s of folks, just like you, just like me – who started exactly like this.
There is no risk! It’s all upside. Real people I’ve helped who are in our group have started here and now own food trucks, restaurants and bakeries.
WHY ISN’T EVERYONE DOING IT?
Glad you asked. Those I’ve spoken with or have written me that they have no plan to to this have always fit into one of these categories:
- Doesn’t interest them
- They’d rather have a boss and feel more secure that way
- They are lazy (many aren’t self motivated)
- Fear of risk/loss
Many go about it all wrong and those often fail. The real risk is not having the information from those successful folks that have gone before.
There has never been a better time. In our group, we are seeing folks make 3x, 4x and 5x what they were. You simply couldn’t have found this at a better time.

This information is awesome Ben. I was slightly confused however about the lady making banana cheesecake bread. I thought you couldn’t use cream cheese for Cottage kitchens since it needed to be refrigerated.
I’m so glad I found you. I’m just starting out as a side hustle. I will need to apply for a cottage license and have labeling printed for ingredients etc. It’s a lot of different steps.
Thank you so much!
You can’t in most states, so I’m in agreement on what you said.
Where do you advertise for your cottage foods? I love baking and I want to sell more but have had trouble finding customers.
Facebook, Instagram, any social media platform is great for it
If I want to start my home baking business(cookies, cupcakes) do I need to get a license or permit?

Hi, take a look into https://cottagefoodlaws.com/ and see requirements regarding your state
Ben, you mentioned in your article about helping a family member get started selling cookies. You said. “He’s never been someone to hang out in the kitchen but I convinced him to do it”. I’m assuming you mean he was brand new to making cookies. How did he begin baking cookies without knowing anything about them? I am in the same boat. I would like to start baking cookies (to sell obviously) but I know nothing about how to make cookies. Can you tell me how your family member went about making cookies without knowing anything about cookies?
Hi, take a look at homebakingprofits.com , you will find the answers to your questions and all you need to start and succeed.
This comment addresses something that the “substitute teacher” admitted and will help everyone stay in Government compliance with respect to food stamps. She mention “I bought the ingredients with my food stamp card” this is illegal and is writing into the food stamps bi-laws to receive benefit, once you’ve signed the contract or food stamp application you will be held by the laws that govern them. If you sell, use for selling purposes, feeding a fiend and so on, you HAVE broken the LAW. I experienced this first hand and my penalty was the lowest form, no jail, no heavy fines, but restricted for a year alongside the fraud labeling. Still so lucky; and all I did was borrow a cup of flour ( I bought with food stamps) from my home supply to come up with new recipes. How they caught me, I did it to myself. All the laws that govern the food stamp allotment is on public records and on their website. Their by-law are so lengthy it would take longer then a min to read. READ IT or you’ll never know, it WILL surprise YOU!
