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. Now, I make desserts from my cottage kitchen in Attleboro, Massachusetts for you and your family to enjoy. There is no comparison to desserts found in corporate big box stores and supermarkets. It is just me making your desserts, so it is like you have your own private chef!

What’s in a name?

Many of my clients often 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 one day and I said my name is “Jivas Konos.” From there, the rest is history.
