The Story Behind the Rolls
From Kitchen to Classic
In the 1970s, Millie Ray Shelton began baking her now-famous orange rolls for friends, family, and garden club gatherings. One brunch in particular sparked something special—her citrusy rolls became the talk of the table. What started as a shared treat quickly turned into a sought-after favorite, growing by word of mouth and loyal fans.
Today, the company remains family-owned and still operates right here in Alabama, faithfully preserving Millie’s original recipes and handmade process.
Alabama Roots & Family Legacy
Millie’s dedication to real ingredients and hospitality lives on through every batch. Her sons and their families have continued the tradition, baking rolls that are as comforting and familiar as a Sunday supper at Grandma’s.
“These rolls taste like your grandmother made them—because that’s exactly how Millie did.”
