OMG! Decadent Donuts started in 2018 by David Moore, who began selling unique donuts from a stall at Brisbane's farmers market in Milton.

Spokesperson for the group, Moore said: "I think we have now definitively proven that the literally thousands of hours we spent in developing this product have been well spent and that a vegan and gluten free donut can have a better taste and texture compared to a 'regular' donut.

"We believe that what sets OMG! apart is not just that we make fantastic donuts, but our unwavering dedication to making a positive impact on communities across Australia.

Moore continued: "Research indicates that people with strict dietary requirements often face feelings of exclusion and anxiety. By offering a product that just about everyone can enjoy regardless of dietary requirements fosters inclusivity and belonging.

Currently, the brand has 70 stores in Australia and two in New Zealand.
