Sell your homemade treats
Love baking cookies, breads or cupcakes? Turn your kitchen into a little shop and sell to neighbors who'll love them too. Stay-at-home parents, hobby bakers and seasoned pros all start the same way.
Free to set up. Mochipy keeps a small commission on each order, shown on every order and in your earnings.
How it works
- Create your little shop. Just a name and the town where you bake. No registered business, storefront or website needed.
- Add your first treat. A photo, a price, and what's in it (ingredients and allergens). It stays a draft until you publish it.
- Get ready to sell. We explain your state's home-kitchen rules in plain English and give you a checklist: your permit, payouts through Stripe, and where and when customers pick up. Your shop opens when everything's done.
Save as you go and pick up any time, here or in the Mochipy iPhone app.
Your home stays private
Customers see only your town. Your pickup address is shared only with a customer after you accept their order, and it never appears in search or notifications. Prefer not to use your home? Choose a public meeting spot.
The rules, in plain English
Selling food from home is allowed in New Hampshire and Massachusetts with the right permit, and only for treats that are safe without a fridge. Mochipy checks your permit before your shop can take orders.
Selling homemade treats in New Hampshire
Home bakers in New Hampshire sell through a NH homestead food license (Class H). You don't need a registered business, a storefront or a website to set up your shop on Mochipy, and you can build it while you get your permit.
- Who issues it: New Hampshire DHHS Food Protection Section (15 cities and towns, like Nashua and Manchester, license their own).
- Only treats that are safe without a fridge. Cookies, brownies, bread, muffins are fine; cheesecakes and anything with cream, custard or cream-cheese fillings aren't allowed from a home kitchen.
- Every treat needs a full ingredient list and its allergens. Mochipy shows them to customers before they pay.
- Mochipy checks your permit before your shop can take orders. Permits usually renew every 12 months.
- Some towns add their own steps (for example Bedford, Berlin, Claremont); we'll flag it if yours does.
You'll need
- Your homestead food license (photo or PDF)
- Confirmation the food is made in your primary NH home
- A sample label
