Who We Are

Founded by Keenya Cain Wiggins, Shugar Shack Soulfood started as a passion for cooking Southern comfort food that felt like home. After years in the airline industry, Keenya turned her dream into a full-time business, growing from a brick-and-mortar restaurant into multiple thriving food trucks.

Today, Keenya and her daughter Jewel Wiggins operate two trucks:

Shugar Shack Soulfood – serving fried chicken, seafood, jerk egg rolls, wings, and soul food favorites.

JD'z Sweet Treatz & Savory Eatz – delivering Philly-inspired street food, pretzel cheesesteaks, loaded fries, churros, and desserts.

Every meal is made with love, legacy, and a commitment to delivering unforgettable food and service at every event.

About Chef Shug

Keenya aka "Chef Shug" has been in love with cooking since the age of 3.

One day, her mother put cartoons on TV for her to watch while she was doing chores. After a few minutes, she came in to check on Keenya and found that not only did Keenya know how to work the remote control but had changed the channel and was intently viewing "The Cooking Channel".

When Mom asked, "What are you watching honey?" 3-year-old Keenya replied, "the cooking channel... I like it!"

Mom never dreamed, at that time, her baby would grow up to be a natural-born cook, but she should have had a clue when Keenya started baking cookies at age 13 from a recipe given to her by her late grandfather, Alfred Lee, Jr.

Mom used to take the cookies to work when she was at WDAS-FM radio station and the orders were coming in regularly. Keenya then realized she needed a staff.

Now, her mom is very proud of her. And like many others, she also LOVES the meals from Shugar Shack Soul Food.

Chef Shugar has teamed up with some of the tri-state area's parks and provided meals in the summer. While the King of Oldies, "Ali Hackett," played his tunes. Shugar Shack can also be found at Chester's Riverfront Ramble every summer along with various other festivals and events in the tri-state area. Shugar Shack loves to serve the people and wants the chance to feed your heart, mind, and soul. Let us fulfill your food fantasy. We, at Shugar Shack, promise to put food and service first.
