Craft your menu • Deciding a name for cake business • Buying necessary baking equipment • Packaging and promotion • Funding your business
Craft your menu The first step to starting a bakery business is crafting the menu. There is no dearth of inspiration for cake business ideas as there are a plethora of home bakers who post them regularly on social media. Take inspiration from them and design your own menu. Start small with simple bakery items like birthday cakes, cupcakes, cookies and buns. Once you have nailed them, you can expand to more complex goodies like croissants, pies and tarts.
Deciding a name for cake business Another important aspect is to decide on a catchy name for cake business. Since there are many players in this market, having a unique name will make your bakery business stand out. Play around with words that are synonymous with cakes, chocolate and sweetness which sound delicious.
Buying necessary baking equipment First make a small bakery equipment list including baking pans, muffin trays, liners, cake stands, mixing bowls, spatulas etc . Only when you make a list will you realise you already have some of the items already available in your kitchen. However, a professional bakers oven should top your small bakery equipment list as this is what sets you apart from other home bakers.
Packaging and promotion The key to owning a successful home bakery business is in attracting and retaining your customer base. This can be done by personalised packaging and marketing on social media. It is important to position yourself as a go-to home baker in the market by constantly reinventing your cake business ideas, innovating and showcasing creativity.
Funding your business The cost of opening a bakery includes buying the raw materials, equipment, hiring manpower, electricity, maintenance and packaging expenses. Though a home bakery business is far cheaper than a commercial bakery, the cost of setting up a professional baking kitchen at home is quite expensive and might require external financial assistance like a home-based business loan.
