If you have ever wondered what is the most decadent thing I have ever had delivered to my house, you are about to see.
Bakery business Cinnamon Square is based in Hertfordshire and they specialise in square cinnamon buns. Yes, square!
They have made quite a name for themselves by selling these decadent and over the top square buns and now they are out to impress plant-based eaters as well.
Check out this huge box of the vegan square cinnamon buns I was sent by Cinnamon Square.
My box contained nine square buns packed tightly into the box, all smothered in rich and irresistible frosting.

Apparently their is another heatwave coming for this weekend in London, so you probably should know about this vegan ice cream option in Angel.
Launched this summer by Copperhouse Chocolate, the rich and smooth ice creams are coconut milk-based. In even more tempting news, the chocolate ice creams on the menu are flavoured with their very own Copperhouse Chocolate drinking chocolate mixes.
That’s right, London. You have a vegan chocolate shop. You knew this, right?
Exclusively available in the Copperhouse Chocolate cafe in Angel, you can have a scoop with a brownie or waffles, try a milkshake, or they can fill a take-home tub for you.
Mint Chocolate ice cream, made using their Mintchievous Hot Chocolate, is one of the most favourite flavours for milkshakes. Other rotating flavours include Coffee Caramel, made with Monmouth Coffee and swirled with Coconut Salted Caramel, and Raspberry Chocolate made with Raspberry Dream hot chocolate and swirled with a homemade raspberry puree.
It all sounds fabulous!

A few years ago, going vegan meant you had to come to the harsh realisation that you would never get to eat some types of food.
But with inventive food creators hard at work to replicate non-vegan delights into more compassionate versions, us plant eaters in 2020 can enjoy treats we long thought were out of reach.
Macaron is the original cookie sandwich. Traditionally made with egg as a integral ingredient, it was long thought of as a food that would never be recreated successfully for vegan consumers.
People are clever though, so we now have a vegan version of this patisserie favourite that you can order online for UK delivery.
The Adopted Vegan has created a gorgeous product that makes the perfect gift for someone you care about and yes that someone is allowed to be you!
The business sent me a box and I was swept up by the flavours.
Current flavours include:
S’mores
Apricot Passion Fruit
Chocolate caramel
Strawberry
Rocky Road
Red Velvet
Pistachio
Cookie Dough
Chocolate orange
Lemon
Coconut
Chocolate hazelnut
You can head on over to the online shop now and order for UK delivery.

Hey (again). Do you love saving money when you buy vegan pick ‘n’ mix?
Yes to both? Keep reading!
Sugar Noms is a fab new UK-based family-owned business on a mission to spread vegan sweets across the land.
They recently sent me some products to try and I was in heaven.
The bag of bonbons lasted about two hours, while the bag o’bubs hang around slightly a little longer. I shared the third packed with friends because even a Fat Gay Vegan has limits.
Sugar Noms has got sweets, chocolates, and fudge in pre-packed or build your own bag options.
Some interesting info about the business:
💚 100% vegan
💙 Letterbox friendly boxes
💜 100% recyclable and eco-packaging
❤️ Nationwide UK postage
💜 Can cater for your wedding and party sweets

This dairy free chocolate company makes the best vegan chocolate on the planet and you can order it online for UK delivery.
The company has shared news that it might become difficult to locate their products in coming weeks due to the major supermarkets cutting down on non-essential stock refills.
Of course the joke I need to make here is that vegan chocolate is essential!
The entire range of vegan chocolates, including their incredible vegan Easter eggs, are online for you to buy directly.
I need to make special mention of the White Strawberry Hamster. How good does this sound?!
All of their regular chocolate bars are available plus a gorgeous Easter pack featuring eggs and bars.
Did I mention there is free shipping for all orders over £10? How easy is it to spend £10 on chocolates?!
Vegans. This is your chance to use your compassionate shopping powers for good.
It is emergency time for legendary London vegan bakery, Ms. Cupcake.
As I mentioned a short while ago on my blog, the UK’s first 100% vegan bakery has decided to shut doors forever. If you missed it, you can read my emotional post online here.
Mellissa Morgan and the Ms. Cupcake business have been on the frontline of veganism for a decade and without her efforts, we would have experienced a very different march forward.
Mellissa pushed boundaries as an independent vegan business owner and showed just how much demand there was for plant based foods. Being inundated with vegan food in 2020 is thanks to pioneers just like Ms. Cupcake.
So they are shutting down, but there has been even more devastating news for the bakery and Mellissa just two weeks out from closing date.
The business was booked to appear at the huge Vegan Life Live show in London this weekend (March 14 and 15, 2020) but with last minute notice, the vegan mega show was cancelled due to concerns about large events contributing to the spread of coronavirus.
While this was obviously an extremely tough decision for the show organisers, this has left Mellissa and her vegan bakery holding thousands and thousands of pounds worth of extra stock that was destined to be sold at the show.
Mellissa told me:
We are desperately trying to close on a positive note, but the idea of all of these products going to waste is heart wrenching for the whole team who has been working so hard. Financially, it is quite disastrous for our small business.
Vegans, this is where we need to do one last act of support and compassion for someone who has done so much for us.
Go the the Ms. Cupcake website NOW and up until March 20, 2020 and order delicious vegan cakes and treats to be delivered to your home or office.
You can choose from four categories of sweetness:
Vegan tray bakes
Vegan cookie sandwiches
Vegan brownies
Vegan American-style cookies
Click here NOW to buy one last big bundle of vegan goodies from this legendary vegan business. Help them go out on a high and with a few less bills!
Buy treats for your home, your workplace, a neighbour, a loved one, someone you are trying to expose to veganism, and most importantly for yourself.
If we can join forces to send as much love and cash in the direction of the Ms. Cupcake bakery as possible, we might just be able to help them have a smile on their faces as the doors shut for the final time.
Order from the online store now or before March 20, 2020 for delivery in the UK or for collection in store.
If you can make it along to the shop in Brixton before it closes, please note they have extended their opening times to include Mondays. This means they will be open EVERY SINGLE DAY until March 29, 2020.
Extra note: you can also order a signed copy of the best-selling Ms. Cupcake recipe book. Already got it? Click here to order another. They make great gifts.
I recently discovered with my own tastebuds that Plant Power Fast Food is one of the best places on the planet to buy vegan food.
The fast food chain with locations scattered around Southern California is almost without peer when it comes to plant-based comfort food. Their burgers, breakfast sandwiches, fries, and shakes are all the stuff of legend.
And let’s not overlook their decadent cheesecakes.
The cheesecakes by Plant Power are such a standout item, the chain has recently inked a deal with Whole Foods Market stores.
You can currently buy the cheesecakes by the slice in the following locations across Southern California:
Hillcrest
La Jolla
Del Mar
Laguna Niguel
Irvine
Jamboree
Huntington Beach
Brea
Redondo Beach
Torrance
El Segundo
Newport Beach
Long Beach
Plant Power has announced that this list is just the start and more Whole Foods locations will be added soon.
If you live in Southern California or are visiting soon, grab some vegan cheesecake from Whole Foods and visit one of the Plant Power Fast Food restaurants for exceptionally good eating.
Follow Plant Power on Instagram and see all locations on their website.
