The Kerrville location will be the nearest Nothing Bundt Cakes to the Hill Country. The closest existing locations are in San Antonio, making Kerrville a likely draw for customers across the region.

Nothing Bundt Cakes was founded in 1997 by Dena Tripp and Debbie Shwetz, two Las Vegas moms who started baking in their home kitchens. The brand specializes in handcrafted bundt cakes made with real eggs, butter and cream cheese, finished with signature cream cheese frosting piped in decorative petals. Cakes come in 8- and 10-inch sizes, along with miniature Bundtlets and bite-sized Bundtinis.

The chain has grown rapidly in recent years, now operating more than 800 locations in 45 states. Texas is one of its highest-growth markets. The brand averaged nearly $1.4 million in sales per location in 2025 and has not closed any locations in the past 3 years. In March, private equity firm KKR acquired the chain from Roark Capital for more than $2 billion.
