MI Cottage food labels

Hi there - I make candy and treats in MI and have my first market on Sunday and am making the labels. However, the amount of ingredients in cake pops is insane and is legit about to be 3, 2” diameter stickers, plus the additional sticker saying it was made in a home kitchen and that seems insane to me.
Is there a better way to do this? I feel like I should be able to just say “Betty Crocker Strawberry Cake mix” and not have to list every ingredient.
What are other people doing?

Gummies too sticky

Hi everyone,

I’ve been making gummies for a few weeks and the texture and taste are great, but they come out too sticky and I keep needing to coat them in corn starch/powdered sugar, which I don’t want to keep doing.
I’m using the Greweling recipe, which is designed to go into corn starch molds and so I’m starting to wonder if the temp is too high for regular gummies? It calls for heating the water, sugar, and glucose/corn syrup to 275 Fahrenheit, but everything I’m seeing online says about 240 Fahrenheit.
It’s confusing though, because outside of being crazy sticky, they’re perfect texture.

Does anyone have any input on how to make them less sticky or what’s causing it?
