My Oh My. I love these cookies! These are pineapple shaped cookies but there’s no pineapple taste, it’s simply cookie press design. Instead, I go straight to munching on MACADAMIACOOKIE, or COCONUTMACADAMIACOOKIE, or KONACOFFEECOOKIE. As I was telling some friends last night(I got them a 21-cookie box as a gift), these are perfect cookies to have with coffee or tea after supper. I tend to buy forty cookies for myself every time I come to Hawaii. I don’t know why I don’t buy four hundred for myself. I keep making that mistake. Hey when you go in, don’t be shy. Samples! Samples! Samples! #goingfat

Wow, what an amazing experience. Shierlyn helped us pack up so many complicated orders. She was helpful, polite, nice and outgoing! Thank you for making us pry of the family!

Wow, There must be 30 kinds of cookies or more and all of them look delicious. What I enjoyed was that they had little«sample» jars to try the many flavors they offer. These cookies are expensive but I for one enjoy the fact that you can at least«test drive» them before you bite them.

Beautiful and delicious. Packaged like jewels. Make great gifts for family, friends, dog sitters. Just returned from Kauai, you won’t find them there… had to order online. My daughter just called to thank me, they arrived in Virginia in a cool pack in perfect condition. Wish I had ordered myself some, sigh.

I committed the unspeakable sin of picking up a sample with my hand, and an employee yelled at us, said«use the thongs!!! Ugh!», clicked the thongs at us, dropped them in the container and took it away as she mumbled something. There was no need for that attitude and embarrassing us like that. I’d never set foot there again… bought some cookies at Big Island Candies… they’re just shortbread butter cookies, they taste like regular Danish, nothing out of this world… I’d probably give the cookies 3 or 4 stars, but I’d give the store a 0 if I could, just for that awfully rude employee

Being a tourist I just HAD to take some cookies home. They have sample cookies for you to try which is helpful. I went a little crazy and over indulged. They have these member cards where you accumulate stamps based on how much you spend and can earn freebies. I will very much enjoy these cookies back home!

What happened to natural ingredients? Last time we were here they used flour butter sugar to make their cookies. Now their ingredient list is a mile long including partially hydrogenated oil and carrageen which no one should eat!!! They did this to increase shelf life to 3 months from previous 1 month but if you freeze them they will last 6 months!!! So disappointed. My kids love their cookies but I will no longer buy them or stock up to give as gifts. Hydrogenated oil stays in you body for 40 days clogging up your arteries. Carrageen should be avoided as it causes inflammation in your body which can lead to serious diseases.

I absolutely adore Honolulu Cookie Company. I love that they’re everywhere in Waikiki and I love that they’re open late. The cookies are super good and I love how you can pack your own boxes by mix & matching various cookie flavors. I always go with this option because I like being able to have more of one cookie and just one of another cookie. My favorites include the Lilikoi, Dark Chocolate Mac Nut, and Mango shortbread. They are a bit on the expensive side — ~$ 1 per cookie if you get it in the pick boxes but they’re so worth it! I always bring some back home when I visit Hawaii. This Honolulu Cookie Company that’s located inside the Hilton Hawaiian Village is always open late(10pm on somedays I believe) and make it super easy for people staying inside the hotel to grab some quick souvenirs for their friends & family back home. I loved coming in here during my stay, trying some samples and picking out cookies.

At $ 1 per small pineapple shaped shortbread cookie, they’re not worth it. What a gimmick!!!

yummy shortbread cookies that shape like pineapple and some shaped like a whale tail. plenty of different macadamia nut flavors, pineapple flavors, and chocolate dipped flavors. u can buy individual wrapped, gift packs, and even make custom packs. you can find these shops everywhere on the island.

I came on my annual trip for work and I had to stop and get my cookie fix and bring a lot home for gifts. This cookies are so damn addicting!

Excellent customer service! Bought about $ 75 worth of cookies for family and friends on the mainland. Employee threw in 2 handfuls of their peppermint chocolate covered cookies for free! She even gave little cousin a good handful of them and she didn’t even buy anything. They’re delicious, my favorite is the dark chocolate covered peppermint ones, which they ran out of real quick! Aside from buying island princess mele macs as take-home goodies, these cookies make great gifts/treats! Packaging is always on point and ready to give as is! Loved the employees here more than the ones at Lewers St. They were much more personable, welcoming, and didn’t try push me to buy everything.

A lot of sample! Friendly staff. Cookies are delicious but they last for 2 – 3 month, that’s a bit long for cookies maybe?

I was looking forward to buying the beautiful Pineapple shaped cookies from Honolulu Cookie Company even before I landed in Oahu. One of my Husband’s colleagues had brought in some cookies a while back and I had been dreaming of them ever since. We would stroll down in the Hilton Hawaiian Village and land up at the store to taste a few cookies and busy some. On the day we were leaving we bought cookies for all of our friends and ended up getting a box of cookies for free with their punch card system. Best cookies ever. I gifted a box to my colleagues and some of them asked me a few times if I had more stashed away. As if I would I would tell them where I keep them hidden! The cookies are basically Hawaiian shortbread, but they come in so many yummy flavors! MUSTTRY!

Five stars for free samples, yipee! If you don’t purchase anything it’s your loss! After the generous offering of samples it’s hard to choose, sooo hard, lol but you do what ya gotta do. Yep, gift boxes to take home, darn, I ended up eating the gifts! Shortbread textured cookies, shaped like pineapples in many delicious flavors, I especially love the chocolate chip Kona coffee, pineapple macadamia & dark chocolate peppermint. Reasonably priced treats, they are scattered throughout the Waikiki area and the airport as well. Usually packed tight, I waited until the crowd was lighter as it was close to my hotel. Very nice shopping experience, excellent customer service. Your experience don’t have to end once you leave the island as you can purchase online, awe… sum!

Came to pick up 2 boxes of the chocolate chip macadamia mini bites($ 10.95 each) and a box of the 32-piece custom macadamia shortbread cookies($ 17.95) around 8:30PM and there was a very long line. The place was literally filled with customers, but the wait was actually not too bad especially since I asked to have my 32-piece customized. The location is nice, but a bit small and cramped with so many customers in there. The staff members are polite and helpful… but I came out of my way because their cookies are crazy addicting. Who would’ve ever imagined that I’d spend $ 100 on a bunch of shortbread cookies? Well, I guess I always had a weakness for macadamia nuts, shortbread cookies and chocolate; but to combine them into one… that’s like heaven in a box. I’ve already eaten 3 boxes of those mini bites in the last 5 days, so that should already speak for itself!

This company must be doing something right. Created only in 1998, they’ve grown into over a dozen outlets on Oahu, Maui, and soon Las Vegas, I believe. They’re also available for purchase at many Tommy Bahama stores. The one I went to was on the Hilton Hawaiian Village property. Service was friendly and best of all they give out free samples of all types of cookies. They’re crisp, buttery shortbread cookies that come in flavors such as Kona coffee, triple chocolate, coconut, pineapple macadamia, mango, and lilikoi mango. Plus some flavors are dipped in chocolate, dark, or white chocolate — each individually wrapped. They can be pricey(we walked out with a huge bag of cookies for friends and family back home) but they’re much better gifts than your typical macadamia nuts.

By far, one of the most amazing cookies I have ever had. If shipping wasn’t so expensive, I would probably order from here more often. I first came to this place during my HS Senior Class Trip to Hawaii. I personally love their Chocolate Chip Macadamia Mini Bites, and literally every one of the 15 flavored cookies. Yes, it’s a bit overprice, but they make such wonderful gifts and the quality of the cookies were worth every penny! The cookies are in pineapple shapes too, simply adorable. I highly recommend this place for anyone visiting.

Honolulu cookie company is one a few companies that specialize in edible souvenirs and gifts. Their cookie is specifically tailored for the tourist crowd but they are quite the hit with the locals too. One key thing about their stores is that they give many samples of pretty much every flavor they have. While I’m not a fan of shortbread cookies because they are too dry, I often get these cookies as a gift from friends and family. They are easily recognizable by their pineapple shaped cookies and being a pineapple-crazed person I am, I eat it anyway. You may have guessed what my favorite flavor is then. Pineapple of course. Second favorite? Dark chocolate lilikoi. Like I’ve said earlier, these are a hit as gifts as they are packed accordingly. I’ve brought them back to Hong Kong for my extended family once and it was so good they asked me to bring them more next time I come back. 100 Reviews, 1 Day 1⁄100 January 12, 2013

FREEEESAMPOOOOHHHS! They have free samples of almost every flavor of macademian shortbread cookie they make. And yes, these cookies are better than those jars of macademian nuts. I ended up buying an already boxed set of 9 cookies which consisted of 3 each of: the coffee, the milk chocolate dipped and the pineapple. They didn’t have any samples of the coffee flavored one, just a white chocolate coffee cookie. I enjoyed all the flavors though but thought the milk chocolate was the best. This box was $ 7.95 for the 9 cute pineapple shaped cookies. They’re not cheap for being tiny, but Hawaii has some delish cookie shops including this one! And where else can you sample so many flavors? I say splurge a little here!
