There are many reasons how a person starts their cupcake business. Most local people start their cupcake business due to the motivational factor of creating more money, and some like me, started out simply for their love of cakes or because they think its adorable :)
If you love to bake, then this idea is not too far fetched. The more passionate you are, the better your creation will be over time. Practise makes perfect!
1.Practise your baking skills. Whether you just started baking or a seasoned baker, start practising. Take down the time you start baking until you finish the entire process. This is crucial during the later part of your business.
2. Scout around for bakery supply shops in your area and others. Surf to find out on online purchases too. Different shops may have different products that others do not carry. Find out which one is suitable for you and your budget.
3.Check out websites, blogs, articles and pricing of cupcakes sold online and those physically.
4.Do some research on equipments needed such as oven,mixers, cupcake liners and pans and ingredients. Find out on the prices on the things that you need to get started. Some shop offers discount for those who join as members.
5.Decide on the time and day you are able to bake and if you would have sufficient time to bake for customers.
6.Decide how many orders you can take at any given day.
7.Do a list of whom you wish to introduce your cupcakes to.
8. Do some calculation. Make sure that at the end of the day, you will get some profit out of it, after all it is 'business'. Your effort and time spent should be compensated fairly.
8. Start small and start with an open mind.
