OT - non babies related. Honolulu treats questions.

KG91705 · June 2011

Sorry girls, non babies related but i just want to try my luck here. My in law brought home these rice krispie treat that has a flavor of ginger after her trip from Honolulu. She couldn't remember the place. It comes in a white bucket with no label or anything. I was wondering if any of you know the brand and if they have a site. I like it so much that i want to buy and ship it to mainland. Already loving the Hawaiian cookies that she brought back in the shape of pineapple. those are great!!!

Thanks!!

not sure if this is where they purchased them, but maybe you can find something similar from Honolulu Cookie Co. https://www.honolulucookie.com/ or Big Island Candies https://www.bigislandcandies.com/BIC/

My husband said they are called puffed rice and they come made with peanuts or ginger or some other things. He agreed the ginger are the best but confirmed china town is usually where to get them and said that they can be found year round he thinks.

Chinese puffed rice and the only place that I know that sells it is in Chinatown and even then it is hard to find.

I am going to ask my co-workers (they have lived here all their life) if they know where/how to get more for you.

I found this article https://archives.starbulletin.com/2004/01/21/features/story1.html It mentions a lady who makes it.
