Vendors
You may have seen Sweets From the Earth’s sinfully delicious cakes, cookies and more around the city. These are some of the most decadent desserts you will find, vegan or not. At the Veg Food Fest, they have the usual favorites and usually have extras that you don’t usually see elsewhere. Not only are their desserts free from animal products, but their two production facilities allow them to cater to peanut and gluten-free patrons too! 🍪
For nearly two decades, Kings Cafe has been a staple in Kensington Market, with other locations popping up in London and across Alberta. If you haven’t had the chance to try Kings Cafe, Veg Food Fest has you covered! Kings will be sampling their delicious Chinese comfort food at Harbourfront Centre from Sept 6 – 8!
