MINNEAPOLIS — When Minnesota sisters Isabel and Caroline Bercaw started making bath bombs in their basement ten years ago, little did they know their hobby would turn into a big business that now sells to thousands of stores across the US and Canada. Their retailers include Target, Ulta Beauty and CVS.
Da Bomb bath bombs fizz, release fragrances and create vibrant colors in your bath water. They also have a fun surprise inside.
The surprise might be a small toy, figurine, charm, or casual jewelry.
Their family-run business is based in Edina, where they've created over 200 jobs in the local community. All their products are handmade at their production facility and contain just a few simple ingredients.
Da Bomb has licensing agreements with brands like Disney, Star Wars, Hot Wheels, Barbie and Marvel.
They just launched the following bombs: Disney Princess, Moana and Lilo and Stitch.
Isabel and Caroline currently attend Columbia University in New York.
Though their parents and a team of employees now run the day-to-day operations of the Edina-based business, Isabel and Caroline can stay reasonably involved, especially when it comes to new product development and social media.
Along with authoring two DIY bath and beauty products books, Isabel and Caroline have received numerous local and national business awards including EY Entrepreneurs of the Year and Forbes 30 Under 30.
