What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Nothing Bundt Cakes' 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, there were two separate listings for California in Item 20, which tracks outlets and franchisee information. One table indicates that there were 59 outlets operating in California at the start of 2022. Another table shows 8 outlets operating in California at the start of 2022. This suggests a total of 67 Nothing Bundt Cakes locations operating in California at the beginning of 2022.
It is important to note that the FDD provides data on both franchise-owned and company-owned stores. The distinction in the tables could reflect how Nothing Bundt Cakes differentiates between different types of locations within their reporting.
A prospective franchisee should clarify with Nothing Bundt Cakes the reason for the two separate listings for California and confirm the total number of operating outlets in the state at the start of 2022 to ensure accurate understanding of the brand's presence and market saturation in California.
