For as long as I can remember, I have been cooking. At twelve years old, I started baking in our family kitchen in Hyde Park, MA making brownies, cookies, and cakes for family and friends. Everyone loved them, and I especially enjoyed showing how my treats were created just for them. Later, I put my love of dessert-making to work as an instructor of culinary arts in Maine, where I enjoyed teaching people from as young as 18 to 70 years old how to make delicious desserts of their own. I have been in the hospitality industry for decades. Bartending, short order cook, bar-restaurant manager, caterer, private chef. Now, I offer my delicious treats through my storefront in Attleboro. This eclectic coffee and dessert spot is a great place to sit and relax in comfortable leather seating, work on your laptop, and enjoy an espresso and a homemade dessert treat. As time goes on, I will be offering small baking classes in shop. Have an evening out and learn how to make some scrumptious desserts!

Now, there is no comparison to desserts found in corporate big box stores and supermarkets. We use the freshest ingredients and limit the shelf life.

It is just me and my small staff making your desserts, so it is like you have your own private chefs!

What’s in a name?

Many of my customers ask where the name Jivas Konos comes from. The short answer is it is a fictitious made-up name! When we were young, one day my sister and I decided to make up our own names. As children often do, we were acting silly and I said “my name is Jivas Konos!” From there, the rest is history!
