Did You Know? Donut Edition:​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
Fried batter dishes were common among many cultures, but in America, what soon became known as a "doughnut" was being made as early as the 1700s! Early Dutch settlers called them olykoeks--'oil cakes'--and they became widespread by the 19th century in America before gaining even more popularity during World War 1!​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
(Of course, they wouldn't be gluten-, dairy-, egg-, and nut-free, but don't worry--You can always find plenty at The Difference Baker!)

SPECIAL ALERT: Churros are back in stock! Sold 3/7.99, these classic sweets are fried to order and dipped in cinnamon sugar for maximum deliciousness! Grab 'em while they're still here! [Contains dairy and egg]​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
P.S. For a vegan alternative, ask about our secret Churro Donut! (Feat. your favorite TDB yeast donuts)
