With a love for baking, two moms, Dena Tripp and Debbie Shwetz, started Nothing Bundt Cakes in 1997 in Las Vegas, Nevada. They made the first cakes in their home kitchens.

The two women were friends and joined forces to found Nothing Bundt Cakes when they realized they could create then-in-demand Bundt cakes with a fun and functional frosting design.

The bakery gives off mom-and-pop shop vibes, but it's actually a national franchise. It began offering franchise opportunities in 2007 and now has over 600 stores.

Each Nothing Bundt Cakes store offers the same products, but individual franchise owners can develop programs and initiatives that vary from store to store.

Shops in residential areas cater more towards families, while those in urban centers focus on offering quick service and plenty of options. Many store owners help local charities.

Bundtinis, which are Nothing Bundt Cake's version of cupcakes, can only be ordered by the dozen. They come in many of the same flavors as the regular Bundt cakes.

You can mix and match flavors to create a custom pack. They feature the same Bundt cake icing swirled on top, but you can get decorations of your choice added to each Bundtini.

At Nothing Bundt Cakes, it's the frosting that stands out from other Bundt cakes. The thick bands of frosting are the most popular, but you can switch things up.

You can ask for a drizzle of frosting instead of the bands, request extra frosting, or omit the frosting entirely. Your custom-frosted cakes will be made fresh in the store.
