Jayne, born and raised in Minnesota, grew up on chewy tator-tot-hotdish and sugary pans of bars. After law school, Jayne worked in state and federal government public policy roles. Jayne has founded a government grant firm, a nonprofit chaperone travel service for individuals with intellectual disabilities and learning differences and authored six national and world award-winning books. Jayne loves braised current events, is bubbly strong willed, and her least favorite charred word is “no.”

Favorite Food: Fish

Favorite Once a Year Treat: Cheetos, Tator-tots, and I love my mom’s peanut butter chocolate graham cracker or lemon bars.

A self-taught decadent cook, baker and party thrower, Jayne’s main love is entertaining and knocking everyone’s aprons off with her creativity, devotion to dollar saving tips and delightful savory tastes. Though far from “a-typical,” a typical weekend would find Jayne roaming enticing garage sales, trying a new gratifying recipe on her glorified taste testing team, and rooting for her friends in the National Hockey League.

In the fall of 2019, Jayne Jones faced a life-changing moment when she became deathly ill. Her love for the kitchen, party-throwing, and her zest for life seemed to crumble in one bite. But Jayne refused to let her story end there. With a resilient spirit, she turned her struggles into something sweet and launched The No Sugar Baker™, dedicated to creating sugar-free baked goods that bring joy without compromise.

However, Jayne’s journey hasn’t been without its challenges. In 2023, she faced yet another battle for her life. After a routine kidney stone surgery, complications led to two cardiac arrests, sepsis shock, and just a 1% chance of survival. Against all odds, Jayne made a miraculous recovery, fueled by her unshakable determination and the love of her family and supporters.

Today, Jayne’s incredible story of perseverance inspires countless fans, and her sugar-free creations have taken the culinary world by storm. From grocery store shelves to sell-out appearances on QVC, her products—like OMG Cinnamon Rolls, Hey Pumpkin, Meet Pie, and Mic Drop Chocolate Pecan Pie—have proven that sugar-free doesn’t mean sacrificing flavor.

Jayne is supported by her husband, Chris Beehler (The Hubs), and her adult-aged daughter, Emily (Em). Together, they continue to spread the message of resilience, health, and joy—one sugar-free treat at a time.

THE SOUS CHEF

Favorite Food: Ahi Tuna or Bone-In Ribeye (Medium Rare on Both)

Chris was born and raised in California. As a hockey goalie, he moved to the Midwest following his love of the game. Chris graduated from college with a degree in recreation management, has coached youth teams for over twenty-years and has never tasted a meal he hasn’t liked. Jayne and Chris married in 2012. He didn’t know at the time; he was adventuring on a life journey with the No Sugar Baker ™. Chris’ favorite dish is a no sugar, no flour homemade pizza. From day one of diagnosis, Chris has played a vital role in Jayne’s health, ensuring her daily needed nutrition, zest for life is joyfully engaged, and giving a truthful evaluation of every new recipe.

Emily, Jayne’s daughter, is a powerhouse of talent and determination. A recent college graduate and graduate of the police academy, Emily is now proudly serving as a full-time police officer—living out her dream of a career in law enforcement.

During her college years, Emily was a two-sport athlete, balancing the rigors of competition with her studies in political science. Though she has a sweet tooth and admits to being a sugar enthusiast, Emily has embraced her parents’ nutritional habits, often experimenting with Jayne’s sugar-free creations and discovering new favorites.

Emily’s creative side shines through in her love of art and nature. She’s always eager to dive into hands-on projects and has even called dibs on designing the cover of the No Sugar Baker™ cookbook.

Jayne and Emily share a special bond that began when Emily joined Jayne’s life at age 12. This dynamic duo can finish each other’s sentences and outwardly share the same values. Once notorious for demolishing tubs of ice cream in a day, they’ve now replaced sugary indulgences with delicious, healthier alternatives—all thanks to Jayne’s incredible recipes.

From the field to the kitchen, Emily is thrilled to bring celebration and creativity back into their lives. She’s a true supporter of the No Sugar Baker™ journey, and her energy and passion are as sweet as they come!?
