Meet Rize Sweet Rollz, a handcrafted cinnamon and sweet roll company based in Salt Lake City, Utah, founded in 2025 by Casey Vanderhoef.
Vanderhoef spent five years developing the product and business while incarcerated. Upon his release, he officially launched Rize Sweet Rollz with a mission that goes beyond baking. As the company shares, “He had a vision to create the greatest cinnamon roll in the history of the world. Not just a good one. Something that could bring light into people’s lives, even if just for a bite.”
Rize Sweet Rollz was founded with the intention and commitment to offering second chances. Vanderhoef and his team are proud to be recognized as a “First Step” employer, dedicated to creating employment opportunities and providing resources for individuals transitioning out of the justice system. Vanderhoef designed the bakery to offer stable, dignified employment, hands-on experience, and opportunities to develop valuable skills to help formerly incarcerated individuals rebuild their lives and successfully reintegrate into society.
Rize Sweet Rollz offers a variety of handmade cinnamon and sweet rolls, crafted with care by a team committed to personal growth and a brighter future. Every batch reflects the dedication, resilience, and hard work of individuals striving to create new opportunities for themselves and their families. Each roll represents the possibilities that come from second chances, perseverance, and breaking the stigma around justice-involved individuals.
When you support Rize Sweet Rollz, you’re supporting meaningful employment, stronger communities, and the belief that everyone deserves an opportunity to rise again.
