Profile

Since 1939, this South Jersey bakery has been turning out the ultimate in comfort fare: crispy cake doughnuts whose centers have been cut open to make room for copious clouds of extra-sweet, extra-secret-recipe white cream filling. Or go for the cake-like cream cheese and fruit muffins, raisin “tea biscuit” scones, thickly iced cupcakes, and 60 varieties of cookies: classic chocolate-dipped brown derbies, nut-and-chip-chocked Hollywood Hills, and lumpy, confectioner’s-sugar-dusted Cape Mays that are thick with raisins, whole walnuts and dried apricots.

McMillan's has been around forever. It's tough to beat their cream donuts, butter cake or their snowflake rolls. The downside is their is no where to park, everything is way over priced and they are not exactly friendly.

I have been patronizing this bakery since I was a small child in the 70s. While I have yet to have baked goods as tasty as the ones here, their business model is changing and I'm not certain for the best. While a lot of customers complained at their $1.00 to $1.35 a donut price hike a few years ago, their new, more underhanded tactic (smaller portions) has resulted in a lower-quality product. Certainly in the cream donuts, which over the past few months have decreased by at least 20% in size, the difference is in quantity alone. But my favorite item, the raisin "tea biscuit" is now, due to its smaller size, a lot drier and less flavorful. While I don't mind paying extra to keep a local business afloat, what amount to a 50% price increase over 5 years is sheer greed on the part of an establishment which has been around for almost a century.
