Basic business operation license from the city in which your business will operate, or from the local county (if the business will be operated outside of any city's limits).
Federal employer identification number (EIN), also called a tax identification number (required for almost all types of businesses). Note: your business may also need to acquire a similar tax identification number from your state's department of revenue or taxation.
Fictitious business name permit (also called "dba" or "doing business as" permit; required for almost all types of businesses).
Zoning and land use permits, especially for new manufacturing businesses and certain home-based business operations.
Health department permits, especially if your business involves the preparation and/or sale of food.
Sales tax license for the selling of almost all products and services. These are some licenses you will most likely need. My family has owned a cake shop for 17 years and these are what we need. Good Luck. Also we charge anywhere from 20.00 for small cakes to 1500.00 for huge wedding cakes. Cupcakes we charge .35 cents each with a minimum order of 20.

A DECENT CAKE RUNS AT $20.00 TO $70.00
