Jack Harper and Jason Jervis started this company together. They decided to leave their old jobs to create their own business. They wanted to make tasty, healthy pancake and waffle mixes.

Their products are sold in many places across San Francisco and Northern California. You can find them at stores like Boudin Bakery and Mollie Stone's Markets. They are also sold in other states, like Portland, Oregon and Phoenix, Arizona. You can even order their mixes online from anywhere in the country!

Delicious Pancake Mixes

Jack & Jason's makes five different kinds of pancake mix. Most of the ingredients come from local businesses in the San Francisco Bay Area. This helps support other companies nearby.

  • Original – This mix uses fresh whole wheat flour and oats from South San Francisco.
  • Banana Walnut – Made with bananas and walnuts grown in Modesto, CA.
  • Blueberry – Features organic blueberries from California's Central Valley.
  • Double Chocolate – A yummy mix with Hershey's cocoa and white chocolate chips from Burlingame, CA.
  • Pumpkin Spice – Uses real pumpkin from Momence, IL and spices from Rancho Cordova, CA.

Healthy Ingredients

Jack & Jason's uses only organic ingredients in their mixes. They get these ingredients from local companies in the Bay Area. They do not use any extra chemicals or preservatives. This means no processed baking powder or unhealthy oils.

Because of this, their mixes are low in fat and high in protein. They also give you a full daily serving of fiber from whole grains. This makes their pancakes and waffles a healthy choice!
