About Cinnaholic

We're not your ordinary dessert shop. Cinnaholic burst onto the scene back in 2010, gaining recognition for our top-notch, artisanal cinnamon rolls. Our core mission is to provide 100% Vegan, freshly prepared, homemade cinnamon rolls, and various bakery items that cater to the growing demand for innovative, plant-based culinary options. All of our offerings are entirely free from dairy, lactose, eggs, and cholesterol. We are the only gourmet retail bakery that lets consumers customize their cinnamon rolls with over 50 varieties of frostings and toppings!

Notably, Cinnaholic has been recognized on Entrepreneur Magazine's prestigious Franchise 500® list in 2019, 2020, 2021, and again in 2022. We've also made appearances on ABC's Shark Tank and ABC News, and have been featured in numerous business, financial, and trade publications. When you embark on a Cinnaholic franchise journey, you become an integral part of the Cinnaholic family. Our business model thrives when franchise partners are actively involved in the operations. We're seeking individuals who are ready to don the apron and invest their time in their local store.

Why Choose Cinnaholic?

Beyond our complete vegan commitment, we offer more than the traditional 'Old Fashioned' cinnamon roll. Our menu boasts an array of enticing flavors, all meticulously crafted with the finest ingredients to tantalize your taste buds.

With remarkable profit margins and low cost of goods, we stand out in the virtually untapped "Vegan" franchise segment. We occupy a distinctive niche within the rapidly expanding bakery market. Our popularity soared after our appearance on "Shark Tank" in 2014, and reruns continue to captivate audiences.

Our business model is characterized by simplicity, requiring minimal space, and offering a one-of-a-kind product. We've cultivated a dedicated customer base willing to travel great distances for our gourmet cinnamon rolls, providing an unparalleled and memorable experience.

History

It all started with a small bakery in Berkeley, California. The original founders opened the first Cinnaholic bakery in July 2010, which quickly became a local favorite — with lines out the door. And the best part? The cinnamon rolls they created were 100% vegan!

The success of the first ever Cinnaholic bakery not only got the attention from local media outlets, but also from the producers of ABC’s Shark Tank. So in 2014, the founders pitched the company on national TV. (Season 5, Episode 28 - if you want to look it up).

With the success of Shark Tank, the founders decided to turn their concept into a franchising system to share the joy of Cinnaholic with as many people as possible. Since then, Cinnaholic has opened close to one hundred locations in the U.S. and Canada!
