Veganuary inspired more than half a million people across 200 countries to try a plant based diet last year and with so many fantastic products on the shelves – it’s not hard to see why!
If you’re thinking about making the switch then the month long challenge is a great place to start and our Bridges retailers are on hand to make it an easy transition.
Whether you’re on the lookout for a quick vegan lunch or some new skincare to add to your routine, there are plenty of options at the centre.
Krispy Kreme, Vegan Selection Dozen
Krispy Kreme has offered glazed vegan donuts for a while now but they’ve released three delicious flavours for Veganuary. Fudge Brownie Bliss, Caramel Choc Delight and Apple Custard Crumble have quickly become our new favourites.
