Workers’ Comp for Cake Studios
Protecting the People Who Make Your Bakery Shine
Protect Your Bakery from Everyday Risks
Whether you operate a home-based cake studio, a commercial bakery, or a specialty cupcake shop, Workers’ Comp helps you stay compliant with state laws while creating a safe and protected work environment.
Business Ownership Policy (BOP)
A Business Ownership Policy is a bundled solution designed to protect your cake studio from major risks. This policy combines Property Insurance and General Liability Insurance in one affordable package. It covers your baking equipment, ovens, refrigerators, décor tools, furniture, and even inventory like flour, sugar, and edible decorations — along with financial protection if a customer is injured on your premises. For cake designers who need comprehensive coverage without high costs, a BOP is the perfect foundation for business protection.
General Liability Insurance
Customers visit your cake studio to taste delicious treats — but if someone slips on a spilled drink, is burned by hot samples, or gets sick from an allergic reaction, you could face costly lawsuits. General Liability Insurance protects your bakery from claims involving bodily injury, property damage, and product-related issues. It also helps cover legal fees, settlements, and medical costs. If your cakes are delivered off-site or used at public events (like weddings or birthdays), this insurance becomes even more crucial.
Why Cake Studios Need Workers’ Compensation Insurance
🔸 Protects employees and gives peace of mind
🔸 Helps maintain legal compliance in your state

How does it work
Common Injuries in Bakeries
Working in a bakery can be physically demanding, with long hours, heavy lifting, and exposure to high temperatures. Some of the most common workplace injuries include:
Burns and Scalds
Bakers frequently handle ovens, hot trays, and boiling ingredients. Even a brief distraction can result in painful burns or scalds.
Slips, Trips, and Falls
Flour dust, oil spills, and wet floors make bakery kitchens prone to slips and falls. These accidents can cause sprains, fractures, and back injuries.
Cuts and Lacerations
Knives, mixers, and slicing tools are essential baking tools — but they also pose risks.
Repetitive Strain Injuries
Constant kneading, mixing, or packaging can strain muscles and joints over time, leading to conditions like carpal tunnel syndrome.
