Minos Bakery
About This Spot
Stepping into Minos Bakery feels like returning to a comforting neighborhood haven where each visit slows the rush of the day just enough to savor something sweet and familiar. Tucked along the busy stretch of Black Horse Pike in Pleasantville, this unassuming spot invites you with the warm aromas of freshly baked goods and a quietly bustling pace that speaks of tradition handed down with care.
The atmosphere here hums with the simple joy of discovery—whether you’re popping in to grab a slice of cake on a holiday or sharing a box of pastries with family and old friends. It’s the kind of place where handwritten notes on custom birthday cakes feel personal, the kind where the whipped cream doesn’t overwhelm but perfectly balances the layers beneath, and where every blueberry muffin or lemon meringue pie holds a little story of comfort and homemade goodness.
Behind the counters, the daily rhythm of baking shapes the mood—a thoughtful, steady craft born of years spent mastering the delicate balance between sweetness and texture. It’s not just the wide variety that captures attention; it’s the genuine care baked into every batch. Locals and visitors alike find themselves drawn back, sometimes years later, to the same flavors that marked birthday celebrations or simple weekend treats in childhood.
Minos offers more than just cakes and pastries. It’s a place that gathers memories, a quiet crossroads where the familiar and the new intermingle gently through each bite. Whether you’re hunting for a classic coconut cake or a surprise slice infused with spirited Bailey’s Irish Cream, the experience lingers far beyond your first taste—an understated but cherished part of the local fabric.

Great experience! Visiting a family member to celebrate a birthday. Friend recommended this bakery! We're so happy that they were open on Easter Sunday! We were able to buy a slice to taste the cake before purchasing! We were very happy with the whippe d cream flavor and not overly sweet cake! Stephanie wrote exactly how I wanted on the cake! Wanted to try everything on the shelf, but summer is coming. Whenever I'm in this area I will return!

I live in Texas now, but my family is still in South Jersey. Every time I come to visit I always stop by Minos for my fix! Haha I grew up with the delicious bakery pastries of Minos! Every year I’d get my strawberry shortcake birthday cake from Minos! It’s still just as tasty! I love their wedding cake slices (vanilla), their powdered cream filled donuts, strawberry shortcake, crème brûlée, and I always get a sprinkled cupcake to fly back home! The women who help me are always very friendly as well.

Beware, locals and transients alike- You will be blown away by the selection and sheer volume of product when you walk into this unassuming bake shop on a busy local highway. The smells and colors will hit you like a freight train, You will never want to go to a Dunkin' Donuts or overpriced chain bakery ever again. It will ruin you for every artificial ingredient-laden competitor out there, and you will return time and time again, build a family and bring your children in-tow. A generational bakery and local staple. Unrivaled.
