Fresh from the Oven, Nothing Bundt Cakes Debuts in Murfreesboro
One-of-a-kind Nothing Bundt Cakes – a bakery specializing in nostalgic yet refreshingly modern bundt cakes − is spreading its wholesome goodness to the ‘Boro.

The Murfreesboro bakery is the third location for Nashville-area franchise owner and
foodservice industry veteran Jeff Warne and his wife, Lynne. Mr. Warne is a member of the Second
Harvest Food Bank of Middle Tennessee board of directors, and the couple has developed a partnership
with Second Harvest to give their grand opening celebrations a more meaningful impact to the greater
Murfreesboro community.

• Tuesday, Aug. 22
o 11 a.m. – Ribbon cutting with the Rutherford County Chamber of Commerce and representatives of Second Harvest Food Bank of Middle Tennessee
• Saturday, Aug. 26

o Every 30 minutes – Drawings for free retail and baked items
“We are excited to open our newest location where we can be more accessible to the many
Rutherford County customers who have already become familiar with our premium-quality cakes,” Warne
said. “We also wanted to bring our partnership with Second Harvest Food Bank of Middle Tennessee to this
location’s opening, so that the Murfreesboro community can support a great cause while also celebrating our
third bakery opening with us.”
“We are so thankful for Jeff and Lynne’s continued support in the fight against hunger,” said Jaynee
Day, president and CEO of Second Harvest. “By offering the Benefit Day, they are giving Nothing Bundt
Cakes customers a unique opportunity to help their hungry neighbors not only in Rutherford County but also
throughout Middle Tennessee.”
Nothing Bundt Cakes reintroduces an old family favorite – the Bundt cake – with a light, moist taste
and fresh, clean look that appeals to all ages. Each cake may be customized with decorations that are smart,
contemporary and fun to enhance any occasion, large or small. Nothing Bundt Cakes offers customers a wide
range of cake flavors and sizes, from bite-sized “bundtinis” to large 10” cakes.
“Once people taste our cakes, they’re hooked,” said Warne. “That’s why we always offer free
samples every day in our bakery. The cake is delicious and practically sells itself. We also offer balloons,
cards, candles, gifts and serving platters that complement any celebration.”
