The friendliest staff and literally the BEST donuts I’ve ever eaten- better tasting and texture than any gluten- containing donut I ate before learning I was allergic to gluten. Vegan options as well. They also make GF sourdough loafs, and the taste and texture is impeccable. For the first time- good GF bread that does NOT need toasting to be yummy! Highly recommended. I’ll be back every time I visit LA!
fōnuts is the home of the enlightened donut and more, including new gluten free breads, bagels, cakes, cookies and other pastry surprises! Treat yourself better with the original "better for you" donuts. Always baked...never fried, fōnuts are all gluten free, with many flavors available in vegan, all with low-to-no sugar crash. All our baked goods are baked daily from scratch, using only premium, fresh and real ingredients in simple and clean recipes, with a healthy dose of loving kindness for good measure. Thanks to all the whole food ingredients, like almond flour and real fruits, which are all high in soluble fiber, all our treats are less inflammatory, and a lower sugar spike (glycemic load) than similar items. But what matters at the end of the day, everything we bake is the most delicious you will find!
Honestly bummed they don’t offer ANY fried doughnuts.. Like what’s the point? It’s just cake. If I’m going to seek out a doughnut I want as close to the real thing as I can get and it’s not this place
Such a cute place! Validated parking out back with a sweet parking attendant. Super clean store and very friendly service. We ordered 6 mini fonuts: lemon, churro, vanilla, double chocolate, strawberry, and blueberry earl grey. We also got full size raspberry and maple Pancake. My favorites were the lemon (very lemony and tart. Yum!), churro (love cinnamon), and the maple Pancake (delightful breakfast flavors). The blueberry early grey was not too sweet and nuanced. Liked it more than expected. Great cake textured fonuts! So nice to to have a whole donut place to choose from. We didnt try them, but sourdough and buttermilk biscuits too!
I was greeted with a smile and the staff was very helpful. The owner even came out to chat about the sourdough bread and donuts.
She explained they have a baker kit you can take home and bake 1/2 dozen donuts yourself! It comes with instructions and a QR code to help. Comes with a batter and glaze pack, you add the water, oil and eggs. You even get a donut pan. Sounds like a fun afternoon baking session to me.
I opted for the sourdough bread. It was fantastic! I toasted slices and had them as toast and sandwich bread. It felt so good to be eating a delicious fresh bread! Need I say, it felt normal!
I also tried a mini blueberry donut. The flavor was perfect! It reminded me of a blueberry muffin. So yum!
These place is amazing! I bought one of each of the minis and a regular sized carrot cake fonut. Like with anything, I loved some and some I didn’t care for. I tried half of each one and this was my final verdict. The carrot cake was beyond amazing, the chocolate tasted like a Hostess Ding Dong (Yum), the lemon was great, churro tasted like a cinnamon roll (Yum), strawberry was good, blueberry ok (husband loved it), and vanilla was ok.
This place is amazing! The entire facility is gluten free so no risk of cross contamination! Least dense donut or baked good I’ve had since going gluten free right years ago! They had a buttermilk biscuit that was to die for and I can’t believe the South hasn’t come up with anything like this for its celiacs down here! A fun combination of traditional flavors like vanilla, double chocolate, etc. and unique ones (they say churro is their most popular)! If only they would open a Charleston location! 😉
If you love doughnuts go here! Most amazing GF Doughnut I have ever had! 100% Gf facility and staff was very nice
