Former NFL Defensive End Opens Second Nothing Bundt Cakes
With first in Canton, Kenny Peterson is excited to expand to Fairlawn
When Kenny Peterson turned in his pads for cake pans with the opening of a Nothing Bundt Cakes in Canton, he knew that God had a plan for him. “I was looking for opportunities with Nothing Bundt Cakes while living in Denver. I was shocked to find that the only available territory at the time was in Canton, Ohio,” shared Peterson. “I grew up in Canton, played football for McKinley High School and then for The Ohio State University. I was going back home to Canton.” Now, opening a second bakery in the Fairlawn area, Peterson is excited to be able to continue to share joy with Northeast Ohio. The bakery will celebrate its official grand opening with a benefit day and community giveaway (see details below).
