What would you do? Questions- 5 marks each Case #7
You are a master baker, and you love to experiment in the
kitchen. After years of playing around with hundreds of cookie
recipes, you believe that you have finally landed on a winner. You
win every cookie competition that you enter, and you sell out every
time you offer your cookies at fairs and farmers’ markets. Your
family and friends are encouraging you to scale up your business
and to sell your cookies commercially. That would mean hiring a
team of bakers. You would love to, but you are scared to share your
recipe. It has taken you years to come up with it.
Thinking about the principles of intellectual property law, what
can you do to protect your secret recipe, your most valuable
asset?
