Do I need a cottage food permit in Utah?
Sometimes. Utah's registered Cottage Food path requires a valid food-handler permit plus UDAF inspection and registration, but only covers shelf-stable, low-risk foods. Utah also has the separate Home Consumption and Homemade Food Act for broader homemade foods sold in person, within Utah, directly to the final consumer, and not for resale. The first question is not just the product — it is which Utah path your sales model actually fits.
