MY REVIEW: I have traveled all over the world as a food tester and even so, this was a suprise!! I heard about it from a friend of mine and tried it out to put it to the test. I ordered 2 of each of the most popular items (heavenly butter, chocolate, oatmel cookies, etc.) and have never tasted anything like it. So njd thanks because I have definitely found my new bakery.

MY REVIEW: As always I ordered my holiday desserts from my favorite bakery & as usually I was very pleased. The Sweet Potato pies was baked to perfection just the right sweetness & texture, OMG I even bought some Chocolate Chips & some Oatmeal Raisin cookies they were awesome (not sure if it was the clear plastic bag they came in or what)

but they were still so good even after 5 days also I must say they have gotten better with their timeliness. Great job & Congratulations Not Jus Donuts & family on 10 yrs of business my family, friends & I are looking forward to another 10 more

MY REVIEW: I ordered a lemon cream cake for my birthday, 7.16.2010, as I usually do whenever I plan an event. The cake was a hit at the party. The guests raved on and on for days about the cake. The cake was very moist and full of flavor. This was the first event that I've ever experienced where the whole cake was eaten at the event. I've had cakes from here before, but for some reason this one was the best.

MY REVIEW: I found out about Not Just Donuts when the Judge I worked for had a birthday party in our office. The court reporter purchased the cake for the party and it was so good I had to have it again. The cake was an Italian Cream Cake with cream cheese icing. Sometimes when I have purchased store bought cakes they can be dry and the icing is shortening or whip cream based, but this cake is to die for,it is moist and delicious and the icing is smooth and creamy and both the cake and the icing complement each other. In august my husband had a birthday and I bought the Italian Cream Cake for him he loved it and wanted to hide the cake so no one could eat it all. We will be purchasing another cake on this Friday 11/13, it is my birthday. You got to try this cake you will never by another store bought cake again.

MY REVIEW: I love this place, their cakes are wonerful. I usually order individual bundt cakes but I graduated in December from college and I wanted my own individual cake to share with noone and I got the buttercream senual vanilla cake and it was great. I loved it and I am going to order another one for me and my husband for Valentines day. I recommend them for any occasion and any day.

MY REVIEW: Yum! Their cakes are better than homemade and the staff I met were exceptionally positive and worked with smiles.

The quality of everything I tried was perfect (cakes were moist) and it all tasted very good. While you can special order cakes, they jhave a case full of personal sized treats and throughout the morning it seems as if they steadily put freshly baked items out. (I was there early on Saturday.)

Even if you live across town, I'd suggest making it a point to add Not Jus' Donuts as a "must try" bakery.

MY REVIEW: I saw the reviews here online and decided I had to try it as well!

I am extremely happy I did. I live across town and would tell anyone that the drive is definitely worth it. I visited on Sunday and bought a variety of baked goods so I could sample and see what I liked.

Their cakes are very good. I tried the personal sizes ones as well as slice of the pound cake. The texture was absolutely perfect, and the cakes had a yummy homemade taste to them. I also tried a couple of cookies and am quite satisfied with them as well.

Everything was freshly made that morning and the service was with a smile.

If your mouth wants to be extremely happy, next Saturday, drive to Not Jus' Donuts and pick anything out of the case, you won't regret it! Prices are very reasonable (you can see them on their website) and the portions are good on the individual servings.

This was my first visit, but I will definitely go again and would wholeheartely tell others to go as well. I'm always looking for quality foods and yummy desserts and I think I've finally found the bakery for me! I can't wait to try their other desserts. :)

MY REVIEW: If you are looking for a great looking cake and an even better tasting cake, NOT JUS DONUTS BAKERY is where you should place your order!!!! After Hurricane Ike, I had to streamline an already tight budget for an anniversary party. The ladies of NJDB greeted me with a warm smile and a great consultation! I walked out knowing I made the right choice for such an important event. The cake was a beautiful 2 tier masterpiece! Everyone loved the cake and begged for more! These ladies run an efficient and well-rounded business. Their unique cakes will have you coming back time and time again for more! I thank them so very much for the excellent job they did for me! If you've never been there..stop by. You will not be disappointed! May God continue to bless their lives and bakery!

MY REVIEW: I read the reviews and ordered the Heavenly Butter Cake (w/strawberry filling) and buttercream frosting that everyone recommended for my project team's celebration. They all loved it and several took their business cards for future department events.

The cake was very fresh and the buttercream frosting was rich, but light. I will order from them again, and again, and again! I have to try their other products!

MY REVIEW: I have been to NJD several times. I usually order their individual bundt cakes, but I was hoisting a baby shower and I ordered a half sheet. The half sheet was wonderful. People have been asking me where did I go and I just say Not Just Donuts.
