The Sweet Flour Bake Shop constantly smells of freshly baked cookies, and that's because Bite into a Tate's Bake Shop chocolate chip cookie and you'll quickly realize that butter is the not-so-secret ingredient. The thin, crispy, caramel-tasting treats are the signature product of Kathleen King's Southampton, N.Y., bakery – and the guilty pleasure of beach-bound Manhattanites, celebrity fans such as Gwyneth Paltrow and Rachael Ray, and cookie lovers around the country. Growing up on a Long Island farm, Ms. King began baking as a kid and now – some four decades later – sells her confections in 40 states to the tune of $6 million in annual revenue. Her wholesale facility in nearby East Moriches churns out 24 million cookies each year, sold in clear plastic bags for $5 a dozen at retailers such as Whole Foods, Gelson's and Central Market. Ms. King, 50 years old, today has 55 employees, two cookbooks and an ultimate plan to sell her company – for a sweet price, of coursethey're constantly baking customized cookie flavors for patrons, available by the single or by the dozen in any flavor they want. Similar to an ice cream shop, visitors to the shop can satisfy their sweet tooth by choosing their own mix-in flavors that are instantly added to the appropriate amount of cookie batter, flattened into cookie shape and stuck in the oven so they transform from dough to warm, delicious cookies that meet your mouth's every desireThe process is simple, and really, the most stressful part is choosing from the many (more than 20) mix-in flavors, types of dough and spreads that are available at the Sweet Flour Bake Shop. Plus you've got to decide on a cookie format since you can go with traditional, or a sandwich cookie version, either of which I'm sure are making your mouths water just thinking about it. A. I was baking and selling cookies at my dad's farm when I was 11. He said, 'You have to buy your own clothes for school,' so I said, 'OK.' When you grow up on a farm, you start working the day you start walking. We were raised in an independent self-sufficient way – so it was just incredibly natural for me to finish college and create my own job. My mom told me about a fully equipped bakery for rent in Southampton. When I was 23, I bought the location I am still in today. At the time, it was just putting one foot in front of the other. I lived at home; I didn't have any major responsibilities. That's the beauty of being young and naïve – I didn't know what to fear.
From a business perspective, this bakery is genius for a number of reasons; it's a great concept for marketing, and it reduces waste when cookies are baked exclusively on demand rather than made in batches based on prospective sales. It sounds like The Sweet Flour Bake Shop is the first to evolve the bakery business as we know it, but it won't be the last

Bakery Business Plan

Writing a Business Plan Bakery is one of the first things you should do if you are planning on starting your own Bakery business.
This type of business can be one of the most rewarding types of businesses to start because of the personal involvement you can have with this business. You can be a part of just about every aspect of your business.

There are very few places where you can get a bakery business plan, as there are very few people who actually have the experience of bakery plans.
Most often if you were to purchase a business plan for say a cake shop business plan or a bakery business plan, they have been converted from a stock business plan document with a little colored graph or pie chart to suggest that an effort has been made to impress some bank employee.
EVERY business is different, but the plan is the same!
Strange words you say after the last statement. Well, let me explain further.
The chapters contained in a bakery business plan are the same chapters that are required in the cake shop business plan and the bakery plans or any other business plan.
It is the information within each of those chapters that are different in every single business plan!
Each chapter therefore is specific to the business, so a bakery business plan is specific to that bakery, as the cake shop business plan is specific to the cake shop business and the bakery plans are specific to the number of bakeries that the bakery plans are related too.
Simple stuff you say!

What licenses do i need for a home bakery, is a question to ask before, "how to have a profitable bakery". How hard to start bakery will be answered by your bakery business plan with your experience and confidence.
You should collect all necessary information required to start a bakery. Nobody should go into any kind of home based bakery business, or a bricks & mortar business without a business plan and this IS your first step.

Some of these books "might" be specific - "i want to start a bread shop", will only deal with starting a bread shop. It will not tell you how to open my own cupcake bakery. Nor will it likely tell you how to design a bakery, or give you a floor plan.
Similarly, there are books on do-nut shops. Books on franchises will deal mainly with that particular franchise - Coffee shop franchise - donut shop franchise or bread shop franchise in which you are governed by the franchisor and the franchise agreement.
How to start a bakery deals entirely with starting a bakery.

It's hard to believe I know but we small business people, though we might employ less than ten people and often employ just two, actually employ collectively, more than all the giant car manufacturers put togther.
You may never get the same high hourly wage you once had employed for someone else, but there is a true satifaction in ones own labors, plus the tax breaks that go along with self employment.
Today there are many people looking at starting their own business and becoming self employed, and there are many people looking to start a bakery.
Many of these have the experience to operate a profitable bakery. Many others have a desire to operate a food trade business and have a flair with food presentations.
While many others, have absolutely no idea what it takes to set up a bakery. They have no idea what ingredients to purchase or where to purchase those ingreditents.
Where do you get the equipment or even know what equipment they might require to operate their new business.
If you purchase a bakery that has been in operation for several years, then the equipment is already in the location, but it might be old equipment but still operational, but it might not be suitable to your dream business. By the very token that the equipment is old and operational might be the reason the business is for sale in the first place.
Newer equipment might be the profitable way to go, maybe leasing new equipment is the thing to do. Perhaps buying new equipment will actually increase your profits, by being more efficient.
Well as simply as it sounds or seems, you will be surprised at the number of businesses that write their business plans on the backs of a restaurant napkin and that’s where it ends.
That’s where the planning ends and the business most often in bankruptcy

Don't worry about learning any new programs for your bakery business plan. You will use the programs that you already use every day: MS Word and MS Excel. The templates, both for the text and for the financials, are set up so that all you have to do is enter your personal information.
