Yumyum Brownies, the University Avenue brownie stand turned storefront run by teenage entrepreneur Jerilyn Sheppheard, has closed its doors.

In a Facebook post, the business stated that licensing issues that would necessitate them building a kitchen were at fault. They were unable to sell some of their products while they waited for new licenses and that “pushed us back financially and we were unable to hold the space while trying to go through the licensing process.”

The post also says that they are planning to reopen “in a bigger and better location with everything we need to serve our community.”

The business will also continue to offer delivery and cater events, and its summer stands will continue to operate.
