you need to use the Label class & apply a format created using the 
WritableCellFormat class, something like:

<cfscript>
// common objects
cellColor=createObject("java","jxl.format.Colour");
border=createObject("java","jxl.format.Border");
borderLineStyle=createObject("java","jxl.format.BorderLineStyle");
// create format
cellFormat=createObject("java","jxl.write.WritableCellFormat").init();
cellFormat.setBorder(border.ALL,borderLineStyle.THIN,cellColor.BLACK);
cellFormat.setBackground(cellColor.BLUE);
// do the label w/formatting
thisLabel=createObject("java","jxl.write.Label").init(1,1,"A Label",cellFormat);
</cfscript>
