How to make cottage food labels
- Open the free label maker and set the size of the sticker on the jar or bag (often 2x3 or 3x2).
- Add product name, a short ingredient line, net weight, and your business name.
- If you have many SKUs, put each product on a row and map {{product}} {{ingredients}} {{net}}.
- Print one test on the real stock. Then print the batch or export PDF.
What people usually put on the face
- Product name
- Ingredient list in descending weight
- Allergen line if your state wants it
- Net weight, your name or kitchen name, city
Check your state’s cottage food page before you sell. The sticker is the easy part.
