New Buns in Town.



One of the very nicest things about life is the way we must regularly stop whatever it is we are doing and devote our attention to eating." -- Luciano Pavarotti and William Wright, from Pavarotti, My Own Story



Just Buns, previously of Congers, is now located in New City, NY. Dana Reyes and her husband owned Just Buns for almost four years in that location. As a small business they worked hard, expenses were high so they painfully decided to leave Congers and move to New City to start again.  Just Buns of New City officially opened September, 2013.



I always dreamed of owning my own business.” Reyes says.  She learned to bake early on from her grandmother Martha and perfected her Mother-In-Law Fely’s intricate and personal recipe for swirly buns.



Dana Reyes rolls each of the secret recipe buns by hand, carefully placing the appropriate filling and choosing only the freshest and highest-quality ingredients. There are no preservatives here.  “There is a meditative place you go to when you bake,” Reyes explains, “it is very zenlike—this is not place for anything but fresh ingredients! I left a corporate career to bake and I hope to continue for a very long time, I love what I do."



The fillings are endless and the buns come in two sizes. They include almond, chocolate, apple, apricot, blueberry, butterscotch, chocolate marshmallow, cinnamon and brown sugar(the most popular flavor), coconut, cranberry, nutella, peanut butter & chocolate, peanut butter & jelly, raspberry, almond raspberry, chocolate raspberry, and many more.  Dana also features a bun of the month.



For the Holidays Reyes will create buns using pumpkin and gingerbread.  Holiday Pies; southern pecan, apple crumb, blueberry crumb, and pumpkin will also be available. Just Buns’ kitchen is never quiet at Holiday time with Reyes also creating other family recipe specialty desserts including her Grandmother Martha’scheesecake and dense chocolate brownies filled with an overabundance of chocolate.

Just Buns is open Monday through Friday 7:30am-6pm, Saturday 8:30am-6pm.  In addition to the retail bake shop for walk-in business and wholesale, special orders are available for charity and corporate events, baby showers, holiday parties, birthdays, school functions and weddings.  Just Buns proudly delivers locally and ships nationwide.  All major credit cards accepted.
