HB 25-1190

HB 25-1190 expands Colorado's Cottage Foods Act by allowing home cooks to sell refrigerated foods that were previously not permitted under the original act. This means people can now sell a wider variety of homemade goods, including items like dairy products and cooked meals, directly to consumers or through local markets. The bill benefits small-scale food producers who want to start selling their products without needing a full commercial kitchen setup. Since it has been signed into law, home cooks in Colorado can now legally sell these new types of foods starting from the date the governor signed the bill.
