Alstork's lil bundles was created from a love of traditional pound cake and a desire to bring people together over something simple, nostalgic, and made with real ingredients. What began as a passion for baking quickly turned into a business focused on creating mini loaf pound cakes that are moist, flavorful, and perfectly sized for sharing or enjoying as a personal treat.

Each cake is made with real ingredients and inspired by the classic pound cakes many people remember growing up, but in a convenient mini loaf form.

In many communities, access to healthy food is limited.

But access alone isn’t enough.

People also need the knowledge to make healthier choices with the options available to them.

At Good Food Catalyst, we’re addressing the social determinants of health by combining nutrition education with real-world application.

Through hands-on grocery tours, participants learn how to plan meals, shop intentionally, and take action immediately.

This is how we turn knowledge into healthier communities.
