How We Began
My family and I have always loved crispy rice treats. Therefore, I made it my goal to figure out how to make the BEST crispy rice treats as possible. Once I figured out a recipe that we thought was golden, I started to really have fun with it. Although, regular flavored crispy rice treats are awesome I couldn’t help but think what if. What if I could make these taste like cinnamon rolls, carrot cake, or even mocha? Well, let me say this, we tried it and it was AMAZING! We now have over 30 different flavors, and are still creating, in 4 different sizes.
The thing is, this was just a fun treat for my family not at all a business. My family actually owned 2 daycares for 16 years, then Covid hit. It completely turned our lives upside down. We were forced to shut our doors in hopes of reopening but the longer Covid stuck around the more we realized we had to find another way to provide for our families, if only for the time being. It was my mom’s idea to try to make a donut, a donut out of caramel corn! Caramel corn! I can’t make caramel corn BUT I can make crispy rice treats! So the next day we tried it and the response was AWESOME! We have so much support in our local area and from all of you! We are so incredibly blessed! When God shuts one door He opens another. That is just what He did for us. That scared, sad, excited, thankful, blessed, fine day Annabel’s Sweet Treats was born and we are so thankful!
What are Annabel’s Donut Crispies?
Annabel’s Donut Crispies = Gourmet Crispy Rice Treats.
Crispy Rice Treats have always been a specialty of mine. I have some secret ways to make them extra special, with just the right amount of chewy, gooey, and crisp. Annabel’s Donut Crispies have extraordinary flavor combos using real ingredients such as local honey, real pumpkin, and soft caramel throughout the whole donut. Then we form them into cute "little" donuts to display all the yummy goodness in an easy to hold package. Of course, we “icing” them, sprinkle them with a little love, and then package them ASAP to seal in all the freshness. Annabel’s Donut Cripies will last approximately a month at room temperature, longer in the freezer. For the best texture please always enjoy your Donut Crispies at room teperature.
Did Someone Say Gluten Free?
Not long after I figured out the perfect crispy treat recipe. I was diagnosed with Sjogren’s and had to figure out a way to make them gluten free. It was a much easier transition than I expected. I don’t like to advertise it much to the public, because you all know what people think of Gluten Free treats, they taste awful or at least not like the real thing. So for all of my fellow Gluten Free eaters out there, ALL of Annabel’s Donut Crispies are made completely with Gluten Free ingredients!!!! I am not going to make anything that taste awful and I sure the heck not going to make anything I can’t eat. Yes even the cookies and cream, sugar cookie, and cheesecake are ALL GLUTEN FREE!
If you have any questions or concerns, I totally understand, I get it! Please feel free to drop me an email. I will get back with you as soon as possible. God Bless you all and Thank you so much for visiting our website!
The Galley, where we started making all of our certified kitchen treats, that gave us the opportunity to supply local businesses with Annabel’s Sweet Treats. We were continually looking for ways to expand and improve our business daily until……
In 2024 we finally were able to open our very own certified gluten free kitchen and retail space. This is just a start, we are excited to see where this adventure, God had us on, will take us.
