- Overview
Nothing Bundt Cakes - Franchise
To find the perfect recipe, you first need the perfect ingredients. And that’s what Nothing Bundt Cakes’ founders Dena Tripp and Debbie Shwetz were for each other. In 1997, they joined forces, or better yet kitchens, to make cakes to entertain their friends and family. The cakes they made were delicious, unlike anything anyone had tasted. As a result, their friends and family asked them to entertain more and more. They quickly realized this side project of theirs could be something more. There was a gap in the world for delicious cakes, readily available, that didn’t compromise on their ingredients. Real eggs, butter and cream cheese; nothing was too good to achieve perfection. And perfection are those decadent, slowly melting bites we all know and love.
Flash forward and Nothing Bundt Cakes has grown to over 300 bakeries across the U.S. and its first Canadian bakery in Burlington, Ontario. Built on Dena and Debbie’s vision, each bakery has the warmth and nostalgia of its home-kitchen roots, but also take a modern approach for the world today.
Our delectable cakes come in four different sizes, suited for any occasion. From full-size 8-inch and 10-inch Bundt cakes, perfect for sharing, miniature Bundtlets, great for gifting, and bite-sized Bundtinis, sold by the dozen, each are crowned with Nothing Bundt Cakes’ signature cream cheese frosting. Their miniature Bundtlets can be stacked in a Bundtlet Tower, perfect for gifts, and tiered Bundt Cakes are ideal for weddings and events.
Choose from nine classic flavors, including Chocolate Chocolate Chip, Red Velvet, White Chocolate Raspberry and Lemon. In addition, there’s always one rotating seasonal Featured Flavor.
