Cakes Body is a silicone nipple cover product. This business was started by twin sisters Casey Sarai and Taylor Capuano. This silicone nipple cover prevents the nipples from being visible outside and feel comfortable.
There are many traditional bras in which they are found to cause nipple freakouts. So to solve this problem, they started the Cakes Body Business. They started the business by investing $5,000 and then the Covid-19 pandemic started, due to which they lost their job.
They did not become disappointed and started focusing on their business. Among them, their few videos became quite viral on the social platform TikTok, and from this one magical moment, they got thousands of dollars in sales. They have donated over $100k to women’s health causes by August 2023.
It is estimated that by the end of 2023, their lifetime sales will cross $9 million. To achieve this goal, Casey Sarai and Taylor Capuano appeared on Shark Tank Season 15 Episode 9 and asked for the Sharks’ investment.
