Review of Babes Ice Cream & Donuts

Since being diagnosed with Celiac, I have missed having a real, delicious donut that was like the donuts that I used to know and love. I had tried store brands or making my own, but nothing had come anywhere close to the real thing…Then while visiting my family, I discovered this little gluten free (and vegan) gem that I think opened recently. They have donuts and churros that actually taste and have the texture of really good donuts and churros. Some of the donuts definitely look gluten free, but having tried most of the flavours they had in shop, I can say they did not taste gluten free (or vegan for that matter). It was not like sacrificing, but it felt like getting to go to a real donut shop with normal and fun flavour options. I cannot recommend this place enough. Everything was soft and airy with just the right texture. I will note if you have almond or coconut allergies to be careful. According to the website the donuts all have almond milk, and the ice cream is made from a coconut cream base.
