If you love to cook and people love your your cooking, then you can make money from your home kitchen

DO family and friends often compliment you on your cooking? Do your guests repeatedly request your recipes? Do you add interesting ingredients and present your dishes in an attractive manner? If so, your culinary skills could help you fatten your wallet rather than your waistline.

Many amateur cooks have turned their cooking skills into a profitable enterprise. Some are small, part-time businesses while others have grown into multimillion-dollar ventures. There are many ways to turn a profit from the kitchen, depending on your strong points. You can cater parties, enter recipe contests, teach specialty cooking classes at home, or sell a single delicious product, such as baked goods or cookies. Many food businesses can be started with a small investment and budget. And they are great ways to profit from your kitchen.

CATERING. Catered parties were once a luxury only for the rich and famous, but things certainly have changed. Now working people have little time for all the details of entertaining, and increasingly they are turning to the professionals. Consequently, good caterers are finding themselves among the most popular people in town. If you love to cook and have an affection for a people-oriented profession, you can be a caterer.

Start small so you can establish your clientele as you learn and grow. Decide whether you want to be a full-service caterer, meaning that you prepare the food, deliver it, and handle the serving and cleanup. Or you might decide to provide partial service or simply prepare the food and provide no additional services. You must also consider whether your potential clients will host social, corporate or cultural affairs. Each of these three main categories has its desirable aspects as well as its irritations. At first, you may want to limit your bookings to what can be prepared in a well-equipped home kitchen.
