JELLY NELLY

What this record means

The record shows that “JELLY NELLY” is a cancelled Principal Register registration – the mark was cancelled on Nov 30 2002 because the owner did not file an acceptable Section 8 declaration, and the status is listed as “dead.” The owner is Flowers Family Bakeries, Inc., a Delaware corporation, and the registration covered only one class, 030 Staple Foods, specifically “Artificially Flavored Jelly Filled Roll” first used in commerce on Oct 22 1979. A similar name used for food products, especially jelly‑type items, would create the closest record‑based concern, while uses in unrelated categories would be farther from the scope shown here. The record does not give the owner control over every possible use of the words “Jelly” or “Nelly.” No Supplemental Register filing appears, and the prosecution history shows only the initial registration and the later cancellation; there are no listed oppositions or other enforcement actions. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern if you plan a food‑related brand that could be confused with an artificially flavored jelly roll.
