With a team spanning a collective of 20 years of working with Mexican-American communities, La Planta looks to make a change.
Our Mission
Our mission is to empower diverse communities often overlooked by the vegan movement to embrace systematic plant-based dietary shifts. We achieve this through culturally sensitive education, accessible food aid, and inclusive outreach programs, fostering relatable and relevant connections.
?Being part of the Mexican-American community allows us to really get in and show why plant-based eating is a lifestyle we really need to learn more about. For the animals, our environment and our health.?
To find the perfect recipe, you first need the perfect ingredients. And that's what our founders Dena Tripp and Debbie Shwetz were for each other. In 1997, they joined forces, or better yet kitchens, to make cakes for 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 is that decadent, slowly melting bite of cake we all know and love.
Flash forward and the Nothing Bundt Cakes brand has grown nationwide. Built on Dena and Debbie's vision, each bakery still has the warmth and nostalgia of its home-kitchen roots, but we also take a modern approach for the world today. So whether you're enjoying a Bundt Cake or a Bundtinis®, one thing is certain ? perfection is all we offer.
