Thank you to Mya over at Nashua Ink Link for telling the tale of our journey - it is humbling to see 20+ years written out!

From unemployed in Denver to one of downtown's most beloved bake shops, it's been quite a journey over the past 20 years for Jessica duPontbriand.

And when you forget and come to our door Saturday morning,
1. Be happy for us!
2. Turn right around and visit our friends for coffee and breakfast sandwiches at Crosby’s and Riverwalk.

We will see you the following week!

The Nashua Farmer’s Market was unexpectedly canceled last night. THE SHOP IS OPEN 9-2 today, and if you are a vendor with perishable goods, please come and sell them at the shop. We began at farmers markets 20 years ago, and understand what a devastating loss it is when something like this happens. We will make room for you!

We will be closed this Saturday! Life happens, and we all have plans and need the day off! We will be back Sunday morning at 9 am and at the Nashua Farmer’s Market at 10 am 🥳

Twenty years ago this month, a little Greek pastry stand opened at the farmers markets in Colorado. The sign was made out of construction paper. The tables, plastic shelving and PVC pipe.

There was no “we“ in those first eight years - confidence, ignorance, and self-doubt went hand in hand. There were a lot of tears, late nights, and sometimes no nights. There was also (a LOT) of bartering - from tamales to mountain lodging, a lot of good people wanted to help a stranger achieve her dream.

At the time, I thought perseverance was the result of chasing a dream. Looking back, it was the friendships and relationships that were formed from those markets that kept me going.

To everyone who believed in me during those formative years – – THANK YOU. A six year old girl who just wanted to play “restaurant” her entire life, happened to get lucky as she got older because of you.

As jajabelles grew, you grew with us. And the belief you had in me, you transferred to my staff on Main St. I didn’t create the jajabelles community you know today - our staff and customers did.

I just provided the dream and (finally) upgraded the sign.

We are stocked with Greek pastries this weekend! Finikia, koulourakia, kourambiethes, tsoureki, extra Dolmathes, and red eggs. Text the shop if you would like us to hold something 603.769.1873 - we will be open all weekend. Happy Easter to our Orthodox friends! 🐣

Orthodox Easter is Sunday, April 12! 🐣 Baklava, kourambiethes, finikia, koulourakia, and kataifi will be available starting Wednesday. Pre-order your Dolmathes, Tsoureki, Spanakopita, and Tiropita by the 8th for weekend pickup.

For the first eight years of the business, jajabelles’s only product was Greek pastries, all learned from the Makris sisters from 25 Vine St. in Nashua. At Easter and Christmas, we go back to honoring our original roots by baking all of the pastries.

Whether you celebrate Orthodox Easter or not, if you love Greek pastries, now is the week to visit us.
