It can take years of tinkering to get the recipe just right. Then it’s off to trade shows around the nation to try and find a willing buyer or distributor. Perhaps most prohibitive are the costs of building a certified commercial kitchen, the inspection process, and the necessary equipment. Even a first run of labels alone can cost several thousand dollars. Consequently many people who may want to start a food business simply cannot afford to.  </blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/B24D9689-006E-4749-81F0-7E64F2BB70B1/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content7.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
