Here at Enlightened Baker, we LOVE to support artists. In honor of Vegan Donut Week, we are featuring a very special jewelry artist: Ann Van den Broeck of TheJewelSaga on Etsy!

Among many of her fantastic fruit-and-vegetable inspired creations is this quirky and adorable handmade donut bracelet, made with high quality polymer clay and finished with a coating of double varnish. We love it so much, we want to give it away to one of our readers!

UPDATE: This giveaway has ended. Congrats to Nikki M.!
