I encourage you to attend an upcoming Cottage Food Law free, online class.  The link is below to find a class, and then you will need to register.  There are many freeze dried items that are allowed, but there are some that aren't.  With candy, you also will have to label using a different name that the commercial product (for example fruit blasters vs. skittles or something).  There is a lot of opportunity for Q&A at the end of the class with a MDARD inspector.
