Equiprep,

I doubt the 16 year old baker requires a fully complicated business plan such as my incorporated business requires, but she most definitely requires a business plan.

Without it, she is guaranteed to join the ranks of those food service operations you describe that fail within their first 12 months.

One point I hadn't considered is that it is possible that this business idea of our baker's is eligible for school credit. She should definitely inquire about that from her principal.
