5 Best Bakeries near Muncie

“Concannon's Bakery has been a a go to shop since my childhood. I can recall being very young and picking up doughnuts with my mother at their downtown Muncie location in the early 1970's.

Fast forward to 2024 and they have moved twice and are now on the Northwest side of Muncie in a beautiful large building since around 2010. Parking is in their own surface lot.

The display cases are reminiscent of my teen years when looking over all of the yummy doughnuts. As well as the multi layered service behind the counter to serve customers quickly. I found the service to be very good.

What has changed is the amount of additional items outside of their delicious doughnuts offered. Like pretzels, popcorn and various candies. All available by mail order. They also have these branded items in various locations in state and the Midwest. They also added a coffee bar in their newer location. A barista takes your order.

Finally the biggest change is adding a dining room to enjoy these amazing doughnuts. I found the area clean. It's self busing.

My order was a childhood favorite Long John with buttercream and a powdered sugar with buttercream. I also ordered a house coffee. I enjoyed them in the dining room. The pastries seem close to identical, but smaller in size and much more expensive.

I loved my visit back to my hometown and of course to a super FAVORITE business. However, they are not quite as amazing as they once were in my opinion on taste. At the same time major improvements have occurred which is appreciated. 4.5 rounding down and absolutely recommend hitting them up.

“I drank my cotton candy lemon shakeup which was SO good. I spent the rest of my evening in my recliner waiting on someone to bring me food (I was home alone) 🤣 it definitely does the trick!“

“The cupcakes he made for my daughters engagement party were amazing! Strawberry Shortcake and Snickerdoodle were the flavors they chose and both were gone before the party ended!!!
I arrived to pick up the order and it was ready to go as agreed upon. The cupcakes traveled well in the boxes in which they were stored.
So delicious!!!“

“Phenominal service! I'll be recommending them to everyone and calling them more than texting next time ♡. She did a fantastic job with the strawberry dog I created for the cake and gave it that extra pizzaz. I will be going to them for cakes again!“

“Great place! Awesome service, the donuts and coffee were good quality. Very good atmosphere and dog friendly!! Highly highly recommend this place!!!“
