Whether you landed here because you remember the cult-following of Lousy Hunters’ vegan donuts — or because you’ve recently fallen in love with Tracy’s cinnamon rolls, sweetbreads, or muffins — welcome.

​

This little bakery has taken on many forms over the years, but the heart of it has always stayed the same: bold, nostalgic flavors made with intention and care.

​

We first crossed paths with Tonya and Josh during our old bartending days. While we were building Cloche Coffee in Durham, they were building a fanbase in Raleigh. The moment they opened up wholesale, we jumped at the chance. Our community felt exactly like we did: these donuts weren’t just for vegans — they were for everyone.

​

In December 2021, they passed the torch — asking only that we rebrand if we carried it forward. So we did and Crummy Hunters was born!

​

Of course, we had to be real with ourselves: we’re not bakers. Or vegan. Or equipped to do this justice alone. So in 2023, we partnered with Tracy — an insanely talented vegan baker who’s helped evolve Crummy Hunters into something much bigger than just donuts. Her treats have expanded not just the menu, but the vision — and we’re so grateful to have her at the heart of this brand.

​

We’re actively looking for a new bake space and working hard behind the scenes to shape what’s next. We can’t wait to share more when the time is right.

​

Sincerely,
Your Crummy team
