I am starting my own business. I am wanting to find out what all I need for my business. Don't want to forget anything. Suggestions would be great!

Insurance!!!!! Alot of venues these days require license and business liability insurance, you will need a certificate of inspection, a business license from your city, business auto insurance, most likely a serv-safe certificate (may be venue required), a business plan (yes even if you are not seeking financing) a list of necessary equipment, a pricing plan, contracts, business bank account..I am sure there is more.

here are some great articles

Nadah, thats the beauty of having your own business. You get to decide how many cakes you can do in a week. Don't think you have to fill every request that is made
