Cree & Jalen Candies

General information

I am Sheila M. Johnson, Owner and Operator of Cree & Jalen Candies (CJC). I love creating, decorating, sweets, Algebra, training the body and reading. My husband, DeQuincy, is a Retired Marine and my greatest supporter! He's the love of my life (since 7th grade) and a huge part of the business. We have a young adult son and daughter that we are proud to have named the store after, leaving a legacy for future generations to come.

CJC was birth out of many seasons of craft shows and a small home-based business in Southern California in the early 2000's. Now based in North Carolina, we’ve recently closed our storefront and are solely operating our online store. We're excited to carry a nice selection of old-fashioned candies and treats that take you back down memory lane too. A large part of what we do is hand-make SWEET gift baskets and curated candy boxes, making a sweet difference.

Mathematically speaking, we also offer Basic Math & Algebra Tutoring Services for clients in the 6th grade and up.

We're proud to say that our Christian beliefs are the key ingredients to what we do. Our Vision is to share and package God’s love, cause giving to be infectious, inspire people to smile and make a practical difference daily in the lives of others.

We are built on the foundational scripture - “Give, and it will be given to you. You will have more than enough. It can be pushed down and shaken together and it will still run over as it is given to you. The way you give to others is the way you will receive in return.” Luke 6:38, NLV
