Sustainable Focus
Our philosophy? More taste, less waste with pre-measured ingredients and shelf-stable solutions like dehydrated dairy.
It all started with two best friends and an internet cake recipe that led to a pre-party baking disaster.
That was all it took for Shelley and Carla to realize what the world was missing: a fun and easy solution to bake from scratch without boring boxed mixes and without the expensive, time-wasting, stressful baking ordeals.
But as minorities with deeply rooted cultural upbringings, they wanted to create a solution that wasn’t just fun and simple—they wanted to create something that inspired people to actively engage with the world around them.
Their traditions taught them that food is an exciting way to create cultural awareness, which ultimately fosters tolerance. That’s why BāKIT Box features culturally themed kits that transform your baking experience into a fun, educational, and meaningful adventure.
SHELLEY GUPTA
Growing up in Toronto, I went to a birthday party for a friend who wasn’t Indian and was surprised that nobody stood up to feed the first piece of cake to the birthday girl.
That’s when I realized not everyone shared my Indian traditions, which inspired a curiosity about other cultures and traditions
Now, whenever I travel somewhere new, I head to where the locals eat. Exploring authentic flavors is one of my favorite ways to connect with the community.
Creating BāKIT Box with my best friend is a dream come true. I’m excited that we’ve found a way to help people explore and create happy memories.
Life is pretty delicious!

CARLA MEDINA JACOBSON
Life can feel overwhelming at times, especially for working moms. Baking is a great way for me to relax and connect with my 1-year-old son.
He gets so excited when we play in the kitchen and test a new BāKIT Box adventure together—I want him to be curious about other cultures too.
I was born in Puerto Rico and grew up in Chicago, where our robust traditions revolve around food and family.
It’s important that I pass down the appreciation of my culture, as well as other cultures, to him.
Creating BāKIT Box with my bestie has been so rewarding. I love creating fun adventures families can share while learning about the world around us.
