We asked South Jersey folks about their favorite local doughnut places, and they responded with a bunch of great places - many, I will say, I've been to myself.

Looking at this list, I come to one conclusion: Bridgeton, in Cumberland County, is something akin to the Doughnut Capital of New Jersey. There are some great places to grab some treats in this city!

Let's go, here's our list, in no particular order (Caution: some of these in shore towns are seasonal only):
