This does not work.
Shipping can costs 15 dollars easily.
And you somehow have to make a profit after all your time and products.
You also need insurance and a license in many places.
If you poison someone (even if they just say you did), they can sue you and take away everything your family owns.

Contact churches, schools social clubs, social meeting and private family and let all of them know that you are willing to cook and sell cakes from your home for special occassions, birthdays, holidays, anniversaries, wedding, etc.
Place ads in the local newspaper and place ads in the free information wall at your local supermarket, library, church, or ymca

Don't know where you live, but UK hygiene regulations require a certificate of qualification to sell food.
