Mochi Moment
Mochi doughnuts are popping up everywhere, and
that’s great news for doughnut lovers: The pastries
are made with glutinous rice flour, so they’re light
and chewy—and they’re highly Instagrammable,
thanks to the flowerlike “pon de ring” shape
popularized in Japan. Here are 13 spots
where you can find them—a baker’s dozen!

Cheesy
Impersonators
Dairy-free cheese was once a rare health-food
store find, but now it’s everywhere—and it’s
remarkably similar to the real stuff. The startup
RIND recently won a Specialty Food Association
award for its Classic Cambleu, a vegan cheese that
mimics a Camembert–blue cheese hybrid (it even grows mold!).
Meanwhile, grocery stores are stocking more cheese-like crumbles,
slices, shreds and spreads, as sales of plant-based cheese spiked
50 percent last year, according to Nielsen. Check out what’s new:
