Why did you start Vicky Cakes?

Vicky Cakes is the brainchild of good food and family. Over 40 years ago, Vicky, a single mom of four, created this recipe using simple ingredients she had in her pantry. Her homemade pancakes became a cherished staple for her children, including her daughter Christian. Years later, as Christian became a wife and mother, she knew she had to share this family recipe with families around the world.

In 2013, Christian’s husband, Cortney, tried the pancakes for the first time at Vicky’s house in Indiana. He fell in love with them and came up with the name “Vicky Cakes.” For seven years, Cortney urged Christian to package the mix. Finally, in 2019, the couple launched Vicky Cakes on Mother’s Day, and the rest is history in the making.
