8. Business: Home baked goods
Why start now
Everyone might have rediscovered their baking skills during lockdown, but the reality is that most people don’t have the time (or the skills and inclination) to bake beautiful cakes and cupcakes for special events. If this is one of your skills, you can get this business up and running with minimal investment. Remember: People love hand-made and gourmet baked products – you just need to supply them.
What you need to get started
All you really need is a kitchen, cooking utensils, your ingredients and a flair for beautiful designs (and Pintrest is a great inspiration centre). Set up a Facebook page, join your local community groups and start posting photos of your beautiful creations. Make sure your lightning is excellent and ask your customers to comment, like and share your posts to gain more traction.
