Meet Kakes The Great!
"One trip to the orthodontist changed the course of my life..." ~ Kaylynn Kakes the Great
Hello, my name is Kaylynn but you can call me Kakes. I would say I am your typical girly girl, but I don’t think there is anything typical about being a girl and equally, nothing typical about who I am. I love to have fun, meet new people and help in any way I can.
On a visit to the orthodontist, my mom and I found out I needed braces. My mom works really hard and I wanted to help her with some of the cost. I thought long and hard about how I could do that and ultimately, I came up with the idea of creating my delicious kettle corn treats! I tested all my flavors with my mom, family and friends; and guess what, everyone loved it! I definitely knew this would be a lot of work, but was up for the challenge. From there Kakes the Great Popcorn Co.™ was born. Each flavor has been created and crafted in the Kakes Kitchen, using premium ingredients, locally sourced vendors, and guaranteeing freshness with every bag.
​
Being a young entrepreneur comes with its fair share of challenges and each day I am determined to be the very best at what I do. My favorite part of this journey is knowing there is more to come. Thank you all for shopping with Kakes the Great. Please come back and see us soon!
