Destination Little Donuts

Destination little donuts advertises that they have gluten free donuts, but when I arrived, they informed me that they are fried in the same oil as the other donuts. I was disappointed. Try Naturbaker in Destin instead; they are an allergen-free bakery.

Employee stated there is cross contamination with the gluten-free donuts. He stated that if you have celiac you should not buy it there

Celiac friendly?

No

I did not order donuts so cannot speak to taste.

They informed me the donuts are now made in shared oil on a shared machine. Previously they would only make gf donuts in fresh oil on a thoroughly cleaned machine. They now use shared icing bins and toppings. They make a batch whenever they run out of stock and freeze them until they’re all sold.

They were explicit that these are no longer safe for a celiac, severely intolerant or allergic individual.

Celiac friendly?

No

Celiacs should not go here. See the picture I uploaded as to why.

Celiac friendly?

No

This facility has a large sign when you walk in that everything can be crossed with every allergen. Their gf doughnuts are made with the same machine and cooked in same oil as the gluten ones. It was disappointing for my celiac child. My husband who is just intolerant would have been ok.

Celiac friendly?

No

I first want to say that this is not a dedicated gluten free facility and can have cross contamination. I took the risk eating here as I pretty much do with any restaurant because let’s be honest unless it is a full gluten free facility there is always risk for cross contamination. I do have celiac disease and decided to give it a try and it did not disappoint! The donuts were amazing, probably the best GF donuts I’ve had. You do have to call in advance to order, luckily they had some frozen from a previous batch but still tasted fresh. I did not get sick at all! I know this may not be the case for everyone but if cross contamination doesn’t scare you or you don’t have to worry about it then you should totally give this place a try! So so so good!
