What can you say that hasn’t already been said about Leonard’s bakery? They do one thing, and they do it exceptionally well. Got a half a dozen Masaladas, and found almost all of them to be phenomenal. The seasonal mango and the guava one were exceptional. I didn’t love the chocolate or macadamia nut ones, but it think that’s more of a preference thing.Overall, this is a must try for anyone visiting Hawaii. The masaladas are made fresh, given to you hot, fairly priced, and are not greasy at all. Super unique Hawaiian dessert, that everyone should try while in town. And nobody does it better than this joint ???

Wow, these pastries are delicious. I couldn't resist trying almost every option available for my whole family. So far, I have tasted the guava filled and the macadamia cream, and they are absolutely heavenly, especially when warm. We arrived around 3:30 on a Friday and waited in line for about 30 minutes before ordering and picking up our pastries. It was definitely worth the wait. I plan on enjoying these treats over the next few days, if they manage to last that long!

This was beyond my expectations. I?m not a sweet tooth person so I usually don?t like donut. Everyone told us to try it so we gave it a try. Oh mine! The malasadas puffs were so tasty. I had to dust off the sugar coating on the outside so I can fullyenjoy the whole donut. We got the guava, coconut and custard fillings. They were so good and I had 2 of them in one sitting. Wecame early in the morning at 5:40 and there was no line. I can see it will get busy during the day for sure. It?s worth it evenif you have to wait. There is a parking lot right in front of the store too.
