Starting out and experimenting

So after a couple of years of making the odd muffin, cupcake and also a couple of Christmas cakes and birthday cakes I have decided to take the plunge and am currently looking into setting up my own cupcake business. I want to start off very small and just start by practising and trying lots of different recipes and techniques.  I am going to put up pictures as and when I have them for people to comment on and give me tips.My current ideas are that I need to build up some equipment and looking at selling some stuff on Ebay to purchase some stuff. I am also looking at going into going to the local country markets and see what the deal is there. There are a couple of things that I need to do before I can even contemplate selling anything and that is get my food and hygiene certificate and get my kitchen inspected. Tonight I want to get some stuff on ebay and then I want to make a list of need to do/buy, would like to do/buy and would be nice to do/ buy. I then want to go slowly and just make some cakes and ice them, oh and taste them!!! My daughters are going to be thrilled! So that is it for now, any hints and tips and must dos would be greatly appreciated!
