Down to Earth won “Best Vegan Treats” in Honolulu Magazine’s annual “Best of Honolulu” edition, which was published this month. This was an "Editors' Pick," which reflected well on the company. Here's a transcript of the award citation:
EDITORS' PICK – Turns out it's tough to find a vegan desert, without butter, milk or eggs, that tastes great. After brownies that went down like paste, appropriately named "banana leather," and a scone so dry it made our tongues hurt, we were relieved to find sinfully delicious vegan sweets at Down to Earth. Not only was the selection fantastic—from cookies to muffins to cakes—the chocolate brownie was so moist and chocolaty that the entire staff still wonders if maybe just a little butter was snuck in there. 2525 S.

Kudos to the King St. deli team!
