Believe the hype - this place is a dream. In the historic west end of Atlanta, it's off the main road in an area maybe you might not expect would house some amazing vegan gluten-free doughnuts, but they are there! There is street parking on the same side of the street as this hidden gem. So, as you can read, I echo the reviews of others. Some things to know in advance:
1) The proprietor is friendly and genuine, but it does appear to be a 1-person show!
2) The doughnuts are out when they are out, as are the cinnamon rolls. The choice is what is available - one full baking sheet full of doughnuts, and one of cinnamon rolls.
3) The doughnuts are made without gluten or dairy, no eggs and no regular sugar (uses coconut sugar). They are yeast-raised.
4) There is freshly-pressed juice available, already bottled for your consumption.
5) Buy at least 2 doughnuts, if you like doughnuts... because you will eat it in a heartbeat. It's a better deal to buy 2 doughnuts (2 for 5, 1 for 3).
6) The cinnamon rolls are denser but also delicious - their price point is higher, but, for this type of sweet treat in a gluten-free and vegan version, it's worth the price of 2-3 doughnuts.
7) Cinnamon and caramel and chocolate- say yes to these options.
Overall, I have no idea how these doughnuts are so amazing for the texture and flavor with the ingredients used. It's a dream. So light and fluffy, sweet but not sickly so, fried, but not greasy. Nice chewy texture of kneaded dough - unlike cake doughnuts. The homemade goodness is evident, but it is at a retail level, as well. It's a happy blend for the product.
I am so glad it is not closer to my home, because this would be a constant battle to fight: how many doughnuts to eat each week when trying to maintain a non-obese existence fueled by doughnuts... though the latter could be just fine with these amazing doughnuts! I'd like more, now....
