Nutie
From their humble beginnings selling artisan gluten-free donuts on the Bondi Farmers Market in 2016, Sina Klug and Jacques Dumont quickly captured the hearts of many that they eventually opened a brick and mortar store in Balmain just a year later.
The Surry Hills location opened in 2018, initially serving breakfast and lunch alongside the baked goods. Today, the Surry Hills venue focuses on coffees, treats, and baked donuts.
At Nutie, they make gluten-free, dairy-free and vegan treats that everyone can eat. More than half of their doughnuts are either dairy-free or vegan and almost all of their cheesecakes, bars, tarts, and other baked delights are fully vegan too.
The healthy treats do not end with the food, because they have vegan shakes and homemade almond milk for coffees and hot chocolates.
Their hit item, the donuts, come in endless flavours, including cherry pie crumble, blueberry, blueberry passionfruit, rhubarb custard crumble, Lamington, fairy bread,and black forest.
MessySpoon
Located in the heart of Surry Hills, MessySpoon uses only natural wholefoods ingredients to come up with all-natural, all-vegan, and gluten-free treats. For instance, the chocolate they use is plant-based and is made up of pure coconut nectar, cacao butter, pure vanilla, coconut milk and cashews.
The most popular item on MessySpoon’s menu is the Good Gut Loaf, which is made of ingredients high in fibre, including Sprouted white quinoa, chickpea flour, arrowroot flour, and rice flour.
Aside from the Good Gut Loaf, they have a wide range of products that include banana bread, chocolate chip cookies, brownies, Tutti Frutti health bars, and caramel bars.
