Hi, I’m Joely!
After 15+ years in the professional baking and pastry world, from designing wedding cakes and testing cookbook recipes to training bakers around the globe, I discovered what I love most: teaching and bringing people together through something sweet.
After becoming a mom, I spent more time at play cafés, park districts, and classes with my daughter, which inspired me to combine my two worlds. That’s how Sweet Tales & Treats was born, an interactive storytime and decorating experience created especially for little ones and their caregivers.
Today, Jelly’s Sweets is a mobile decorating experience company, bringing hands-on cookie and cupcake classes to kids, adults, corporate teams, play cafés, park districts, and private events across Chicagoland.
While I still accept limited custom orders, experiences are now the heart of Jelly’s Sweets. Because the sweetest memories aren’t just baked, they’re created together.
