Can you sell baked goods without licencing?

AKA small bake sales and favors for family-though there will be an exchange of money for goods.

You do not need a license to have a small bake sale to raise money for a charity or some other noble purpose.  If you are going to start a catering business, that is another matter.  The distinction is whether you are operating a business for profit or simply fundraising.
