HELLO!
I’m Florence E. Jenkins
I'm the proud owner and founder of Nana’s Exquisite Confections. Raised in Portland, OR, I was fortunate to grow up in a family that emphasized hard work and entrepreneurship. My parents and grandparents inspired me with their dedication, instilling in me the values that shaped my path.
In 2008, while juggling a full-time job, I turned those values into reality by launching an in-home bakery focused on upscale, nostalgic desserts. My family has always celebrated the joy of cooking, with my mother and grandmothers teaching me the significance of a clean kitchen and using only the finest ingredients. These principles remain the cornerstone of my culinary philosophy.
After dedicating 35 years to the insurance industry, I embraced early retirement in August 2023 to devote myself fully to my passion. I am a proud mother to my wonderful son, Darrion Williams, and a delighted Nana Flo to three grandchildren. My love for children drives me to cook with them, believing it can be a transformative experience.
I’ve had the privilege of conducting cooking sessions for organizations like Kitchen Commons, HomeForward, New Avenues for Youth, and the Oregon Youth Authority’s MacLaren Youth Correctional Facility.
At Nana's Exquisite Confections, we believe that true prosperity extends beyond financial success. Our mission is to enrich the lives of our employees and customers while spreading positivity and inspiration. We aim to not only provide exquisite treats but also to uplift others and encourage them to pursue their dreams.
