This will be their final weekend! 🚨

In a surprising move, Plantees (considered by many as Orlando’s “vegan McDonald’s”) announced today that they will be closing shop after this weekend and moving to Arizona! 🌵

In their announcement they wrote:
“We’re incredibly grateful to everyone who has supported Plantees along the way.

As we make the move to Arizona, this weekend will be our final weekend serving Orlando.

If you’ve been thinking about stopping by one more time, we’d love to see you.

Plantees will continue in Arizona. Stay tuned for updates!”

Be sure to share with anyone you feel will want to make a final visit before they close! 🚨

Orlando donut-lovers, run don’t walk! 🏃‍♀️‍➡️

The Salty Donut is currently running a seasonal special of this vegan Coconut Ube Donut that is out of this world 😍

I may be biased (I am 7 months pregnant after all), but this is probably my favorite vegan donut that The Salty Donut has ever had on rotation! 🤤🤤🤤

The actual dough is purple from the Ube - the whole thing is perfectly sweet and creamy and the coconut gives it a nice crunch! I will def be back!!!!!

What is your fav vegan special The Salty Donut has ran?
