The Founder
Founder & Creator of I Da Pappi
Kalen grew up in the heart of Louisiana, where food isn't just something you eat — it's how you show love. From watching her family cook in Bunkie to perfecting her own blend of spices, she always knew she wanted to share her flavor with the world.
I Da Pappi "Yea Sha" was born from that passion. Every batch is crafted with the same care Kalen puts into cooking for her own family. No shortcuts, no fillers — just real Louisiana flavor made with real Louisiana love.
When you buy I Da Pappi, you're not just buying seasoning. You're supporting a local sista doing her BIG ONE — a woman-owned small business rooted in Bunkie, serving flavor across Louisiana and beyond.
"I put my heart into every batch. When you taste I Da Pappi, you taste Louisiana — you taste home. Yea Sha!"
