Cinnaholic Shark Tank Pitch

Shannon Radke and Florian Radke created a custom gourmet cinnamon roll company called Cinnaholic. The cinnamon rolls have no eggs or dairy and are vegan.

Cinnaholic has one location in Berkeley, California, that did $260k in sales last year with a $45k profit. Cinnaholic has a small e-commerce store that is not its primary focus. Shannon and Florian want to use the investment to open a store in San Francisco and then move into franchising.

went from doing $15k to $300k weekly in sales when they focused on online sales. Kevin believes Shannon and Florian should concentrate on that. Robert agrees and makes an offer contingent on not opening up another store. Barbara and Daymond were out but anticipated Mark to swoop in and seal the deal because Mark is lactose intolerant. Shannon and Florian accepted Robert's offer.

. Shannon said Florian was a touring musician in Germany, and she was a manager at a goth radio station. Shannon baked on the side and sold cinnamon rolls at markets for fun, which gained large demand leading her and Florian to start Cinnaholic. Shannon worked at the first location for three years, barely making ends meet.

in 2016. After thinking about the deal with Robert and the stipulations of going the eCommerce route, Florian and Shannon were still set on franchising, so Robert and they happily parted ways. Robert was helpful and said the offer still stands if they change their mind.

Florian researched a few existing franchise-focused businesses, and after talking to a few companies, they eventually found a business to partner with. They turned the flagship Cinnaholic store into a franchise location and shifted focus to running Cinnaholic from a higher level to manage the franchise expansion.
