Vegan Dunkin' Winner

One of the vegan entries in Dunkin’ Donuts “Next Donut Contest” will be made and sold by Vegan Treats.

By Kristen Haney

After receiving positive feedback for its push to enter cruelty-free donuts into Dunkin' Donuts "Create Dunkin's Next Donut Contest," Compassion Over Killing's (COK) Dunkin' Cruelty is joining forces with Vegan Treats to offer vegan donuts to the masses. After the Dunkin' Donuts contest ends on March 8, a panel of self-professed vegan donut experts will choose 12 animal-free finalists, which the public will vote on. The winning entry will be brought to life in Vegan Treats' bakery and sold for a limited time. The task of judging will fall to VN Managing Editor Elizabeth Castoria, COK's Executive Director Erica Meier, Vegan Treats' Danielle Konya, Vegan.com's Erik Marcus, and Ecorazzi/VegDaily's Michael Parrish DuDell.

That's fantastic news! I would probably love it more if I didn't live on the opposite coast and if Dunkin' Donuts weren't so prevalent instead.
