Front Porch Patisserie is a small-batch home bakery located in Calesa Township in Ocala, Florida. Our baked goods are thoughtfully prepared in a residential kitchen with a focus on quality ingredients, handcrafted recipes, and the simple pleasure of sharing something delicious with our neighbors.

We operate under Florida's Cottage Food Law, Section 500.80, Florida Statutes, which permits qualifying food products to be prepared and sold from a home kitchen without a commercial food establishment permit.

Our Commitment

Although Florida cottage food operations are exempt from certain commercial food permitting and inspection requirements, we take food preparation, cleanliness, ingredient handling, and product quality seriously.

We believe our neighbors deserve to know where their food comes from and how it is made.
