Sugarjones is a bakery in Loves Park, IL. The shop creates handcrafted cupcakes, cakes, cookies, brownies, pies, donuts, cheesecake and other sweet treats from scratch, using locally‑sourced ingredients. It serves individuals and groups looking for desserts for everyday enjoyment, special occasions, events and catering, offering custom sheet cakes, macarons and party trays. Founded in 2011 and recognized as Rockford’s first cupcake bakery, Sugarjones has built a reputation reflected in its 4.40‑star rating from customers throughout the Loves Park and surrounding Rockford area.

The bakery began as a modest shop on Rural Street in 2011 and has continued to innovate in specialty desserts. New owners Danna and John Krischke purchased the business in 2024, preserving the beloved recipes, bakers and staff while planning menu expansions. Danna, a certified personal trainer and nutritionist, intends to introduce healthier options alongside the classic offerings. A recent move into the Sugarjones Café space will allow the addition of natural‑fruit smoothies, smoothie bowls, protein‑packed salads and shakes, broadening the shop’s sweet‑and‑savory selections.
