Zynda Cafe opens inside Zynda Apothecary August 1

The wait is over…Zynda Café opens August 1.

For the first two weeks, you may enjoy 10% off your purchase from the café. The café will be offering drinks, treats and eats.

One treat, Mochi Donuts, are a favorite and will be sold exclusively on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.  You ask, what is a Mochi Donut?  Mochi donuts are a hybrid of traditional American doughnuts and Japanese mochi. They are made of sweet gluttonous rice which is the primary ingredient for mochi. This mochi rice is gluten-free and has a soft gooey texture. The donuts are fried, the result is a slightly crispy exterior with a surprisingly chewy interior. Mochi donuts are normally found in three main shapes: the traditional donut, donut holes (round balls) and a donut hole ring (small round balls connected to form a ring). They are also typically coated in an assortment of flavored icings or toppings beyond the standard chocolate and vanilla.

A perfect on-the-go eat is Gimbap.  Gimbap is made from cooked rice and ingredients such as vegetables, fish, and meats that are rolled in gim—dried sheets of seaweed—and served in bite-sized slices.

Zynda Apothecary is located in Downtown Fredericksburg at 1009 Princess Anne St.
