By following this handy holiday gift guide Jade wrote for Dallas Vegan! The list features some of our biggest crushes-the folks over at Hipster Food, who also happen to be behind the epically wonderful Chickpea Magazine, Sprout Skincare, a few of our favorite Etsy shops, an epic list of cook books (with mini reviews!) and a list of must read books that have helped us get to where we are today.

We have put together a little survey and we need all of you to answer it! It takes about 2 minutes, it doesnt matter if you are vegan, vegetarian or neither-only that you are in the DFW area.
Send an email to bigalittleabakery@gmail.com and we will send you the survey. The quicker the response the quicker we can make your vegan bakery dreams come true!
We’ve had a busy week-testing recipes, working on our menu and business meetings/planning galore! Oh, and there’s that one time we catered desserts for the Farm Sanctuary Anniversary Party. You know, the one with Gene Baur? But more on that later, and hopefully with pictures! And the other time we made our chocolate donuts for our favorites-Touche Amore-who put on one of the most amazing live shows we have ever seen (we hope, thanks in part to the sugar rush provided by said donuts!)
We will be out scouting locations this week and we want to know where you guys want us, and what you’d like us to have on the menu when we open. Even if you’re not in Dallas, head over to the Facebook page and leave us your thoughts! And who knows, maybe after seeing your suggestions on our menu you will plan a trip to DFW just to see us?

We did it! We catered/donated cupcakes for our first event. This wonderful party was hosted by the Texas branch of Mercy for Animals in honor of the Texas State Veggie Fair.
Nathan Runkle was in attendance and delivered a wonderful speech about how far veganism and the fight for animal welfare has come. The evidence can be seen in Texas alone. MFA was responsible for E6 cattle ranch owner pleading guilty to charges of animal cruelty after releasing undercover footage of employees brutally killing cows. That means a lot considering Oprah was forced to face charges, in Texas for breaking disparagement laws here when she denounced the beef industry just a few years ago.
We were honored to have been asked to participate and we look forward to our next benefit party for Farm Sanctuary!

We’re covered in frosting and jacked up on sugar! We’ll be at Sons of Hermann Hall for the MFA Kick Off Party with 50 carrot cupcakes in hand! See you there?
Are you in Texas? Are you attending this? Are you then attending the Texas State Veggie Fair?
If you answered yes to the first and no to the others you are going to miss out on a chance to try some of our carrot cupcakes, helping save the lives of countless animals, and just having an awesome time!
Hopefully we will be seeing everyone this weekend! If not, you can expect to see some photos of us at these events soon.
We also tried our hand at filled donuts, this one with pumpkin custard.
