Another food truck finds a permanent home as Holey Rollers readies a brick-and-mortar doughnut shop in Paseo Arts District.
Founder Andrea Koester said it should open this summer inside the Paseo Plunge building, 3008 Paseo St.
Its a pretty small space, so it shouldnt be a long build-out process, she said. We plan on keeping it dairy-free and vegan and some gluten-free, but well also be adding a fried doughnut line. Thats a big deal people were wanting, but we couldnt do it in our tiny trailer.
Holey Rollers has built a strong local following by appealing to vegans and those with dairy allergies.
Opening the store wont affect the operation of the food truck, she said. There continues to be demand, especially in Edmond and Norman, so the trailer will keep rolling.

The center of New York Citys hipster cool sent a little ray of awesome to Oklahoma City in the form of Woops!
Local franchisees Melanie Thomas and Jennifer Friend brought the Williamsburg, Brooklyn-based dessert shop to Penn Square Mall, 1901 Northwest Expressway, in December. It has since ranked in the top three in business sales nationwide.
Woops! focuses on making macarons, those tiny, delicious French sandwich cookies.
Thomas and Friend had the idea to bring the restaurant to Oklahoma City during a road trip in 2016.
Macarons are the new cupcake, Friend said in a press release. Weve seen an upward trend nationwide of the popularity of macarons.
The treats are naturally gluten-free and are at about 100 calories each.
