Hi Mellie
Have you contacted your local EHO yet? When I started out I contacted them and they were really helpful. They asked me a few questions about my kitchen and sent me a form to fill in to register. After I had not heard for a while I called to see when the inspection would take place and was informed that as I am a low risk business and therefore they are unlikely to come out. I know though that every council works differently and that there are many cake decorators out there who had their kitchen inspected.
My council wanted to know that I had a proper recording system of stock in place, a cleaning schedule and they I stored all food according to food& hygiene regulations. If you contact the Food Standard Agency they have a pack, which has all the forms in and which is free. I use that one and fill it all in.
I hope this helps a bit at least. I know it is confusing as every council does their own different thing, which I why I found speaking to my EHO directly very helpful.
Have a great day and happy baking.
