About Us
Hi, Everyone!
I grew up spending most weekends and summers with my grandparents in the small city of Oak Ridge, Tennessee. I have fond memories of baking cookies with grandmother, and visiting my grandfather, who has always called me Nelly Bell, at the Fire Department where he worked. My mother would go on to challenge me at home to learn how to cook and by sophomore year I'd grown to view cooking and baking as something I had a talent for, thinking one day I'd own my own bakery calling it Sweet Nelly's. Through some struggles and doubts I was able to really hone my talent for dessert making and start selling my treats here on my website. Through my passion I hope to one day have my own food trailer and let that be my stepping stone to having my own brick and mortar bakery. Until then I attend the University of Tennessee as an Advertising and Mandarin major/minor. I want to thank you all for your supporting my small black owned business it really means the world to me! <3 Nelly
