Our StoryOur Story

Founders Debra Shwetz and Dena Tripp started Nothing Bundt Cakes® in Las Vegas, in 1997, simply to please their family and friends. Needless to say, thousands of other people became just as excited about their delicious cakes. By using the finest ingredients, handcrafted recipes and imaginative decorations, Nothing Bundt Cakes has grown into the warm brand that it is today.

We celebrate the very heart of true hospitality where all are welcome, and no one is a stranger. Each thoughtful detail of the experience, from the heartfelt welcome at the door to remembering a guest's favorite flavor, has been naturally embraced at Nothing Bundt Cakes. We bring the same spirit into our relationships with our franchisees. We invite a very special kind of person to become part of our Nothing Bundt Cakes family. We know that qualities like sincerity, warmth and a little humor will take you far when you're with the right people. Professional and genuine—this is the best of both worlds.

Our Difference

Nothing Bundt Cakes is a unique, yet successful bakery franchise concept with over 500 bakeries across the U.S. and Canada. As the nation’s largest specialty cake company, we Bring the Joy™ with an incomparable cake, which, when given or received, leaves a lasting impression both on presentation and taste. We compete by offering a delectable, luxury product at an affordable price.

We also grant a unique experience to our franchisees with our positive work environment and family friendly work schedules.

I see firsthand all the ways in which this brand continues its commitment to our success. From business innovations to structured systems that evolve based on our needs, they are always striving to give us a leg up.
