They had me at "vegan donuts"...and once I was finally able to taste the vegan donut (cinnamon sugar) it did not disappoint!
I recently learned of Joe's Doughs online and was happy to see that they sell a vegan donut and that they would be opening a storefront in NoDa. It opened this past Saturday and I finally made my way there today (Wednesday). I got the last three vegan donuts they had (sorry, fellow vegans!) and rounded out the dozen with other flavors for my co-workers. They all really enjoyed them. Per one of my co-workers who enjoyed one of the non-vegan donuts, "I have to say, that was the most moist doughnut I have ever had...it wasn't even like a doughnut! It was more like a French pastry. There is really no comparison to Dunkin'!".
As for the vegan donut, I sliced it in half and planned to only eat half because I'd just finished lunch. Well, that other half lasted for about 90 seconds. ;) The donut was really, really good! I've been vegan for a little over 6 years and I love my vegan treats. I also regularly bake my own vegan desserts for (vegan and non-vegan) friends and family members. Holiday desserts, birthday cakes, etc. are all vegan and there are no complaints. I know what is/isn't a good vegan version of something and these are great! Kudos to Joe's Doughs for showing the vegans some love! Particularly since I've yet to try to make my own donuts. ;)
I look forward to seeing their vegan options continue to evolve over time!
Thanks again, Joe's Doughs!
