History

The pancake brand was founded in 1982 as a small family brand. In the 1990s the two brothers from the same family incorporated their family's business, but met with limited financial success. In 2014 the brand was featured on an episode of the American television show Shark Tank, though the company declined to make a deal with the show's hosts. Despite this, the company's sales increased, leading the brand being cited as an example of a company that benefited from not reaching an agreement with the popular show.
