Special order, replica cake from the 'Harry Potter' movies. Look identical to the one in the films - and tasted delicious!
Dina S.

The pastry chef at Mills Bakery is an artist! My family surprised me with a cake for my annual Harry Potter watch party. My favorite character is Hagrid and I love the scene where he surprises Harry with a cake for his birthday. Apparently, all they did was hand over a photo of the cake from the movie and the Mills team took it from there! It was PERFECT! I've been to the Harry Potter studio in London and the store in New York and neither had a cake that looked this authentic. The colors were spot on, the handwriting looked identical - they even worked in the lines/creases on the top! I've been getting my birthday cakes from Mills ever since I was a kid, but this was the best by far! Fresh and delicious cake, yummy fudge, and the buttercream wasn't crazy sweet, which I like. Thank you Mills team! You're amazing!

They were advertising apple cider donuts but were all out when we went in. The pumpkin donuts were still not bad, though, and for $2 each was ok for a cake donut. No line when we went in, but as we came out, people were waiting outside the door, and we were able to take our time. Big cookies, lots of cakes, turnovers, and other selections. Will have to try breads here another time!

this is a photo of the cake and the hair that they left on it.

I ordered a birthday cake from this bakery for my daughter's 14th birthday, I left them with multiple reference photos and a detailed descriptions of what the cake should look like. All she wanted was a simple white cake with a pink 14 and a few ribbons on the top, when I first went to the bakery they asked if I could put the ribbons on myself, Isaid yes to make things easier for them. when I went to pick up the cake today, not only did it look nothing like the photos, but the big "14" is not centered whatsoever. the cake looks like they didn't even try, there are air bubbles, marks, and even a hair on the cake. to say i'm disappointed is an extreme understatement.

I'm gonna update my review to 5 stars because it's so necessary. I've popped in a few times to grab bread and some quick desserts and everything has been so so delicious. Their long Italian rolls are absolutely delicious. I actually bought it one night when we were having a seafood boil and it was the perfect companion to dip in the delicious sauce. Super crusty outside and perfectly soft inside. Now, onto the tiramisu! Hands down, my favorite new dessert. They have little cups of this whipped delicious goodness all on top of a perfectly soaked in strong espresso lady finger. Truly such an explosion of flavors. I love it. My next birthday cake will be their tiramisu cake. Yum. I also recently tried the lemon bar - which is truly also life changing. It's thick and gooey and delicious. The complete opposite of a boring stale lemon bar you're thinking of. Their cookies are also delicious. They have small chocolate chip cookies and they're fantastic. The small Italian cookies with the chocolate buttercream frosting - omg! I can see why they had so many made on Friday because I'm sure they sell like crazy on the weekends. The chocolate buttercream is really really good. It's everything you want in a chocolatey treat. As always, everytime I went the women behind the counter were super nice and friendly. Definitely my new go-to bakery!

5 magic words posted in their window did the trick. "Apple Cider Donuts Are Back."Established in 1929, this small bakery was mentioned in past conversations with friends. Mills Bakery offers breakfast pastries, cupcakes, cookies, donuts, breads, custom cakes and more off of Valley Blvd in Wood-Ridge. Rumor has it that their donuts sell fast. One has to get there early in the day during the week or not much is left. Luck was on my side today as one other customer and I had the whole place to ourselves. So I managed to get 1/2 dozen of apple cider doughnuts loaded with cinnamon sugar at $2 each. It was fresh, delicious, moist and didn't disappoint. Please don't miss out on this wonderful local bakery that has been here for over 90+ years which I could recommend.

My daughter's baby shower cake from Mills Bakery.  Beautiful & Delicious!!

Mills Bakery made the most beautiful and delicious 1/2 sheet cake which they delivered to my daughter's baby shower. My guests commented how moist, , fluffy & delicious the cake was. I have never been disappointed with anything I have purchased at Mills Bakery. It was definitely a hit! Thank you Mills Bakery!!

First thing's first, there will be a line. The bakery allows 2 people or a small party of 3 at a time. So depending when you go the wait time can vary. Now on to the goodies. We came in for a cake so we ordered the regular size fruit tart with cream. But then saw more and more biscuits! We ordered mini sweets: two fruit tarts, a lemon bar and a key lime pie. A customer recommended to get the donuts from there and dang, I couldn't help myself and got them anyway. The miss assisting us was helpful, patient and kind!! Next time we'll get the upside down pineapple cake. I loved the pastires here because it wasn't overly sweet or pure sugar like other places. I wouldn't get the key lime pie again though. There is a good amount of metered parking in the area. Enjoy!

Excellent one of the few real bakeries left and they do it right. They always have been very consistent.

Cakes were not moist at all. Not sure why all the deceiving reviews. I bought two cakes and neither one delivered.

I've heard so many great things about Erie and finally got to try it! We stopped in after having…read morebrunch nearby. There was a short line but it was moving along quickly. The shop is small with limited places to hang out -- there's a small counter where you can stand and sip your coffee. Otherwise, they have a few small tables outside. There's a second room which has cute merch and a fridge with additional cold beverages for sale. I tried the vanilla latte and took home some treats! The spinach handpie - basically a spinach/cheese breakfast pastry, the cinnamon roll (to die for!! It was fluffy and sweet but not overly sweet like other places are), and a pumpkin cheesecake bar with pomegranate seeds. What I really like about Erie is that they make all these delicious treats and once they are sold out, they're sold out. They don't make more for the rest of the day and they don't waste food. It's always fresh!

I'm typically focused on savory eating opportunities but I'll make an exception when I see a place…read morethat I need to try. Our area has no shortage of bakeries but those of us that have sampled a number of them realize, there are truly ones that stand out from the rest. Erie Coffee Shop & Bakery is one of those bakeries! Cute old school bake shop. Really nice and professional staff. I went in trying to be "good" and not some out with a lot. Easier said than done in this bake shop. Everything looks amazing! I asked for recommendations and left with the citrus olive oil cake, chocolate chip cookie, almond cookie, and a Madeleine. Within a couple of hours, I devoured the citrus olive oil cake. Absolutely perfect! Hint of citrus and just the right amount of moist. Also, the perfect size to feel fulfilled without feeling overly guilty. Later that night, I went for the almond cookie. Amazing texture, truly better than any almond horn I've had. The next day, I broke a piece off of the chocolate chip cookie that we got for our daughter. Perfect cookie. Then I reached for the madeleine, better than any literary device I've ever had! Transported me to my couch, where I speechlessly consumed it with some tea! Awesome! I'll be back!
