One Of Shark Tank's Most Successful Companies Launched Another Insane Breakfast Food
For those mornings when you need to leave the house five minutes ago.
Nick and Elyse Oleksak are proof that a great business plan doesn't require you to reinvent the wheel. You've just got to realign it to make a splash. That's what they did when they came to Shark Tank with the idea to turn a bagel and cream cheese ... into an all-in-one, handheld ball. Lori Grenier offered the pair $275,000, and soon the cream cheese-stuffed bagel balls were in Starbucks, and Target, and mass retailers all over the country.
Since then, Nick and Elyse have pivoted to other breakfast foods. Their line of pancakes — in ball form, of course, and stuffed with syrup — launched last year, and this summer, they've conquered another morning meal: egg and cheese sandwiches. Bantam's Egg Bites are another twist on the brand's ever-popular stuffed bagels — but instead of cream cheese inside, there's scrambled eggs and cheese.
The line is up to five flavors, but we're willing to bet Nick and Elyse have already dreamed up a dozen more. The bites comes frozen, and they take about 20 seconds to heat up in the microwave. Here's what's on shelves now.
