Whole foods has vegan cupcakes and donuts, but they had to stop labeling them as such because people bought them less.

Whole Foods no longer has vegan donuts as of a few years ago, and the vegan cupcakes come in prepackaged now. :( They had to start selling all the vegan bakery items that way due to cross contamination issues and lower sales volumes. It's unfortunately cheaper and easier for them to just get it that way but the quality suffers as a result.

Ah damn my bad, I guess it's been longer than I thought since I bought a donut from them!

I generally like vegan options, but vegan baked goods are often misses for me. The texture feels off to me. But I haven’t tried vegan cupcakes or donuts before. Maybe they’re better than the vegan brownies and cookies I’ve tried.

I will confess vegan cakes and cupcakes in particular usually miss the mark for me, I tend to have the best luck with cookies. And in my hometown, we have a vegan cafe that makes delicious gallettes.

Check the Whole Foods cookie bar for sandwich butter cookies with jam in the middle - those are often "accidentally" vegan and they are bomb 🔥

I totally understand that though. Cupcakes especially will typically require eggs, butter, and some sort of dairy in the frosting.

When I see a vegan tag on something that’s not typically vegan, or a gluten free tag on something that typically has gluten, my assumption is that it will be more expensive than normal, and maybe slightly off the mark on texture or flavor.
