Had Malasadas here and also at Leonard's bakery. The Malasadas here is quite good and close to Leonard's. You get 3 for $10 and choose 3 different flavours. They were fresh and hot. Loved the original custard and cream Malasadas. I would recommend going here!
I heard about this place in the Royal Hawaiian Shopping Center food court, and we were in the area so we tried it! Interesting that you have to order in 3s (3, 6 or 12). We opted for the regular sugar coated malasadas, and chose to fill it with ube cream, Nutella cream, and their special of the day, which was strawberry Mango! They do not skimp on the cream, which was awesome! Malasadas are made fresh and piping hot, so be careful! I think the cream filling is a must if ordering here.
I've been wanting to try a malasada for a while and found this location on Yelp. I stayed in Waikiki, and it was a 5 min walk from where I was at. I ordered a cinnamon, Nutella & strawberry cream malasada--the first bite of the strawberry cream melted in my mouth. Before I knew it, 10 seconds had passed, and the first one was gone. They were delicious! I ate all three and ended up ordering another 3.
It's located in the mall at Waikiki in the food court. These were made-to-order malasada and were done within 15 mins which was fast since they were swamped the day I went. I tried Leonard's bakery malasada and waited an hour later that day since people said they had the best. In my honest opinion, penny malasada tasted way better than Leonard's, and you didn't have to wait too long for them. Check this location out if you're in the area!
Get ‘em while they’re hot! These malasadas are a must try in Honolulu. Coconut or custard…they are all good. Yummy for breakfast.
Like a cross between a doughnut and beignet. The filling is warm, which is not my preference but works here. Recommend the coconut cream or custard cream.
Solid malasadas- they come out very hot and fresh. Personally I like a malasada with more chew, and these are really light and fluffy. The guava filling was yummy though and better than the Leonard's guava filling forsure- significantly stronger fruitier flavor. Worth a try if you're nearby and don't want the Leonard's line :)
Some of the best malasadas I have had!! Fresh and delicious!!
Very impressed with the quality of malasadas but also the quality of service. I walked up to the counter in the middle of what appeared to be a bit of a lunch rush, you could tell Penny's was very busy. But they still took their time to kindly explain to me the daily specials and recommendations. I got a box of 6 malasadas to share with my friends, they allow you to pick 3 different flavors. I got the matcha special, the regular sugar one, and a mystery flavor (I asked for nutella but they misheard or something and gave me a different flavor, which is fine, it was still delicious). They were fresh, fluffy, and delicious. Very light and flavorful.
We don't get these back home so it was a good experience for us. Good portion size and tasted great (even after 24 hours). Only issue we had was an order had to be 3 or 6 in a box, and it was next to impossible for us to eat all 3 completely during our trip.
No idea what this was. Just that it looked like donuts with fillings.
Decided to give it a try. Comes in a box of 3 and you can mix-n-match any flavours.
O.M.G...its really good! Freshly made when ordered... Perhaps tats the difference. Soft chewy texture with just the right amount of sugar coating. Perfect dessert after the poke bowl!!
