Kids’ Cake Boxes was created to capture childhood moments, spending time together bonding. Because baking is bonding.
How It All Started
MEET THE FOUNDER
Karen Hetz, Chief Happiness Officer, Mom, MS RD
A mom of three and a military spouse, Karen founded Kids’ Cake Boxes in 2020. First and foresmost a mom, Karen dedicates her time to her children and family at home where they enjoy hiking, creating, exploring, and, of course, baking together. Moving the family frequently during her husband’s time in the Army, Karen is devoted to sticking together and staying connected with loved ones far away. She is also a registered dietitian, having received her MS in Nutritional Science, and focuses her continued learning and client teaching on how to feed healthy, young children.
WHY WE STARTED
Childhood is Fleeting
As a military family, my husband’s duty often kept him away from our growing children for extended periods. He missed countless precious moments, while I struggled to manage everything on my own. This experience intensified my commitment to cherishing family time and inspired me to help others do the same. Childhood is fleeting, and being present with one another is one of the greatest gifts we can give. This is why we created Kids' Cake Boxes: to encourage families to capture these fleeting moments and strengthen their bonds. Our kits make it simple and enjoyable to create bake memories together.
MORE THAN A CAKE KIT
A Memorable Experience
Kids’ Cake Boxes is about connecting, reconnecting, and love. Each kit is an opportunity to shut down the screens and come together in the heart of the home to simply be present with one another. Baking, and the warm feelings it creates, spans generations connecting families as recipes are passed down and memories are made. We truly believe that baking together is one of the simplest, yet happiest childhood memories you can create and we’re here to help make it happen. We’re not just another plastic toy, but a gift that teaches, encourages, and inspires bakers of all ages.
Why Kids' Cake Boxes

Less time shopping, more time together. We’ve done all the thinking for you. Every kit has all the pre-measured dry ingredients, fabulous themed decorations, and even the reusable bakeware you need to bake memories. And it’s all shipped right to your door. Plus, our recipies are easy-to-follow, making your time together all about the fun!
Made by a Mom Dietitian
We get it. We get you. We agree with the importance of using clean, simple ingredients and not having a power struggle when it comes to leftover sugar in the house. So, we’ve made our kid-friendly baking kits with the same delicious ingredients Grandma used to use and no added preservatives. Plus, our kits create a perfectly-sized treat for little tummies to share, which means you bake memories and enjoy the moment with no arguments about leftover sugar.
Themes Your Kids will Love
We’ve created each of our baking kits with your kiddos in mind. Whether they love unicorns or dinosaurs, want A Day at the Beach or to soar to the stars, we have a kit for them! These fun and real baking kits are the best baking kits for kids. And with so many themes to choose from, your little baker will have endless fun.
