Tyrena Jackson — Founder & Owner of Zenful Treats Luxury Catering

For Tyrena Jackson, food has always been more than a meal. It's a celebration of family, tradition, and bringing people together. Inspired by her grandmother's legacy and her father, one of her greatest culinary influences, Tyrena transformed her passion for cooking into Zenful Treats in 2020.

Known for her magnetic personality, vibrant spirit, and genuine love for people, Tyrena brings warmth and creativity to every culinary experience. Her dedication to her craft has earned her recognition at the Black Food Expo, and opportunities to cater for organizations including Arcadia University, Girard College, Temple Hospital, and many more.

Beyond the kitchen, Tyrena serves as a culinary instructor in Philadelphia, sharing her passion with the next generation. Deeply committed to her community, she has organized numerous givebacks, hosted toy drives, and dedicated her time to uplifting others.

Today, Zenful Treats blends soulful flavors, elegant presentation, and exceptional hospitality, creating memorable experiences while honoring the family legacy that inspired it all.

Rooted in Family. Inspired by Tradition.

Serving with love, purpose & excellence.
