Salt Caramel organic vegan cake doughnut, $3. More than Team Bloughnut likes to spend on its treats, but what can I say I was feeling generous. I gotta say it was good. I couldn't taste the salt (it wasn't Bi-Rite creamery, after all) but the cake wasn't stale, so it was an improvement on my other Pepple's encounters. The caramel was creamy (apparently it has coconut milk in it), the dough was springy. Not sure what kind of coffee they serve as I had brought my own.
The gentleman behind the counter also answered a question Team Bloughnut associate Hillary K. "raised" on this blog nearly 2 months ago: "Can they even make a vegan raised?" Well, faithful readers, check back at the Donut Farm in a week or two. They have the special oven needed (a "Proofer" it's called, it's airtight) and they will be making raised doughnuts and fritters for sale in-store only (they go stale in only 5 hours!). Sadly, but luckily, these won't be organic, so they won't cost an arm and a leg. Estimate is $3. I'll definitely be back to check them out. According to their website, they also have a kiosk at the SF Ferry Building (a dozen dough-doughs will set you back $26!! Yes you read that right: dollar sign twenty-six).
