Selling home made gingerbread/fudge from my doorstep

[Millymollymoomoos]

Does anyone know what the rules are regarding selling small amounts of home made food from your doorstep?
I live in a seaside village where many people sell jam or chutney, but I dont know whether I need any sort of council permission. I was thinking only on a small scale, maybe a few bags at a time.

Think u need to have a health and safety person check your work area. Umm would u need public liability insurance incase u poisoned anyone? Hehe!! My cousin sells cakes and i know she had to go through a few checks before she could start selling.x
