What needs to be on a homemade food label?
Most cottage food rules require the product name, your business name and address, net weight or quantity, all ingredients in descending order by weight, the major allergens (milk, eggs, fish, shellfish, tree nuts, peanuts, wheat, soybeans and sesame in the US), and a statement that it was made in a home kitchen not inspected by the health department. Exact wording varies by state and country.

Pain point
How can I list allergens on my cottage food label?
PAnswer from Pludor
The tool checks your ingredient list for the major allergens and lists them for the label - review it against your recipe before printing.
Problem
Why do cottage food labels get rejected?
PAnswer from Pludor
Common gaps are ingredients out of weight order, missing allergens, no net weight or no business address. The checklist covers each one.
Home food sellers risk fines - or a customer's allergic reaction - from missing or wrong label information.

From result to running business: Pludor Online Store
Selling through DMs, link lists and screenshots loses orders: there is no cart, no real checkout, no order record and no way for new buyers to find you.
Every Pludor seller gets a hosted storefront at pludor.com/{store} with physical products, digital products and services, variations, a cart, card/wallet/QR checkout and an order dashboard - and every product is also listed in the shared Pludor marketplace so buyers can discover it.
