Well shoot. In order to even apply for the Farmer's Market, I first need "cottage food" certification from the county which costs $50 and takes weeks. And once certified, I can't sell outside the state, so no mail-order experiments (I already got boxes for a few trials). So I'm probably not gonna do this after all. :(
Planning to bring my Terffles to the local Farmer's Market for just one morning this Spring. I was viciously canceled in my community so this is largely an art project and scientific experiment to measure the current social climate here. I should probably make a FAQ. Thoughts on this one so far?

Terffles FAQs:

Q. Why are they called Terffles?
A. Because they are handmade by an authentic canceled TERF witch.

Q. What does “TERF” mean?
A. TERF is a slur. It’s supposed to stand for “Trans Exclusionary Radical Feminist” but those denounced under the label are seldom trans exclusionary nor radical feminist. Radical feminists are male-exclusionary; people who actively dislike all trans-identified people are rarely radical feminists.
TERFfles were created by an artist who was exiled from her community for asserting that, although everyone is free to dress, act, and identify how they wish, humans can’t literally change sex and no one should be compelled to lie about their own perceptions.

Q. Are Terffles trans exclusionary?
A. No! We welcome everyone of all ideological affiliations, belief systems, and body modifications to enjoy our delicious handmade fine chocolates.

Q. Are Terffles shelf-stable?
A. Terffles are a handmade artisanal product with no preservatives. They are not shelf-stable and should be kept refrigerated. They can survive a few days unrefrigerated (we’re currently experimenting with shipping), but why take unnecessary chances?

Q. How long do Terffles stay fresh?
A. When refrigerated, Terffles remain fresh for up to two weeks. After that they’re still edible ad tasty but not quite as good.

Q. What flavors do Terffles come in?
A. Raspberry (raspberry white chocolate ganache coated with dark chocolate), Pistachio (pistachio white chocolate ganache with cardamom, coated with dark chocolate), C-cubed (Cardamom, Cinnamon and Cayenne dark chocolate ganache coated with milk chocolate), and Amaretto Amarena Amazeballs (amaretto-almond-white chocolate ganache wrapped around an amarena cherry, coated with dark chocolate).

Remember, they’re only Terffles® if they’re made by an authentic canceled TERF witch. Anything else is just candy.
