In honor of National World Vegan Day on November 1st, Duck Donuts, the iconic quick-serve restaurant, is launching its first-ever vegan donuts that are made from cake. Users can order these plant-based donuts in-store or online from the brand's Orange County, California location. The vegan donuts will be a permanent fixture on the location's menu going forward and customers can expect a lightly spiced cake with a traditional donut texture. The donuts will be made to order and can be customized to include a variety of vegan-friendly coatings, drizzles, and toppings.
"As the U.S. vegan consumer industry continues to rise, so does the demand for an accessible and tasty vegan product," says Russ DiGilio, Duck Donuts founder and CEO. "After much research, trial and error, and in-store testing, we are ready to launch our first alternative donut base option, allowing us to reach a new audience of customers who can now enjoy our warm, delicious donuts, in the same unique, made-to-order atmosphere."
