What New York legally requires on a cottage food label
Every New York cottage food label must carry the product name, the ingredients in descending order by weight, the net weight, a “Contains” allergen statement for any FDA major allergens, your name and address as the producer, and the New York-mandated legal disclosure. The disclosure is the part most bakers get wrong — so our generator fills it in for you, verbatim from current New York rules:
Made in a Home Kitchen
New York's cottage food path is limited to shelf-stable goods, so refrigerated (TCS) items aren't allowed under the exemption. The generator flags it if you toggle TCS, so you don't print a non-compliant label.

New York cottage food label FAQ
What must a New York cottage food label include?
A compliant New York cottage food label needs the product name, the ingredients in descending order by weight, the net weight (oz and/or grams), the "Contains" allergen statement for any FDA major allergens, the producer's name and address, and the New York-required legal disclosure. Our free generator fills in the disclosure for you and lays out the rest automatically as you type.
What is the required cottage food disclosure in New York?
New York requires this exact disclosure on the label: "Made in a Home Kitchen" You never type it — the generator applies the current New York disclosure for you the moment you pick your state.
Can I sell TCS or refrigerated cottage food items in New York?
No — New York's cottage food path is limited to shelf-stable goods, so TCS items that need refrigeration are not allowed under the cottage food exemption. If you toggle "Contains a TCS item" the generator will flag that New York doesn't permit it, so you don't print a non-compliant label.
