No Ka ‘Oi Cookie Company

I’ll go out of my way to visit Tiare at the Honolulu and Kailua Farmer’s Markets. She is just as sweet as the baked goodies she sells. My faves are her mouth-​watering s’mores, blueberry scones, peanut butter brownies and butter mochi.
She also makes melt-​in-​your-​mouth cookies by special order. Check out her website for her menu and contact info!

It was my first time at No Ka ‘Oi Cookie Company at Makers & Tasters last night. I’m not too into sweets. My husband wanted to try them out. There was a line, but it wasn’t that long. We waited for about five minutes.
The hubby ordered a brownie sundae. He chose the cookies & cream ice cream, topped with chocolate syrup, whipped cream, rainbow sprinkles, all on top of a chocolate brownie. I took three bites and I was done. It was so dang sweet I could feel the diabetes coming on.
They also sell pastry items such as scones and butter mochi. I’m wiling to go back and try the pastries, but pass on the brownie sundae.

Ive seen No KA Oi at eat the street and we found out that they do corporate events. They can tailor make a menu of goodies to accommodate your party or event. Mr. Nakayama and Tiare came in to our office with two large freezers and set up everything for our corporate meeting. They were so friendly and nice to all of our staff. Great event and look forward to our next engagement with No Ka Oi!

Moneyball: I prefer salty snacks or treats versus sweet foods, but No Ka ‘Oi Cookie Company’s products make me keep going for more!
I ordered treats to make holiday gift baskets… I haven’t actually been out to any of the events or fairs to have their food yet, but based on the photos and other reviews I’m going to have to!
I ordered the butter mochi, brownies, chocolate chip cookies, chocolate mac nut cookies, butterscotch cookies, and these s’more treats, all are great but the s’mores are absolutely dominant. I typically reach for chips or other salty snacks but I can’t stop eating these s’mores!

I saw their GIANT cookie ice cream sandwich on Instagram & was SO determined to get one at Eat The Street. When I finally got to the tent, the selection looked so appealing that I went with the brownie with mint chocolate chip ice cream instead (two of my favorite desserts)! The total was $ 6.50, but let me tell you, the portion was TWO softballs. It could have been split, but I ate nearly all of it & only shared a little. :3
I’m really into health & fitness so this was a cheat snack, & I may have been a bit deprived, but the first bit tasted like Heaven on Earth! The ice cream was soft & luscious. Even though it was the end of the day, the brownie was chewy & rich with a crispy egde. Completely satisfied my big sweet tooth; I will have this again, some day! :D

If you are a picky classic brownie junkie, who has to have the crisped-​topped edges and a chewy but not gooey brownie w/​chocolatey chunks, then it is worth hunting them down at Eat the Street.
They were so amazing and fresh I picked up some extra to take home, froze them and then cut them up still frozen into smaller slices to serve a few days later with some powdered sugar sprinkled on it and it was a hit.
Warning these brownies are super supah sized. If sliced, each brownie will serve 2 – 3 normal portions. Not crumbly, and not too sweet and as other Unilocalers testified, in a class by itself. It is everything a brownie ought to be.

Here at Eat the Street I kept walking past people eating ice cream monstrosities or delectable treats ala mode style with a huge scoop of various ice creams. I finally tracked the tent down to this company and bought a $ 6.50 a piece treat of a Kona ice cream chocolate chip cookie sandwich with 3 inches width of pure ice cream; and a 4 inch by 4 inch snore bar with a humongous scoop of a selected rocky road ice cream. There were also a selection of toppings for .50 a piece. I thought they were okay priced and the baked goods were gooey, soaked in deliciousness treats! Both were shared with the rest of the family. Very yummy indeed!

I wandered over to the No Ka ‘Oi tent at an Eat the Street event.
Oh, brownies? Why, yes, brownies are my favorite dessert!
You heard me, FAVORITE. Not cupcakes. Brownies.
Yeah, sure, what’s this fancy mac nut caramel brownie, I’ll get one.
*Planets align. Comets explode. Shooting stars dance in the sky* = A REVELATION. — this happens every time I eat one of their fancy brownies.
THESE ARE THE BEST JFS (#%-ing BROWNIES EVER.
EEEVVERRRR.
Graahhhhh. I can’t, it’s just, *gets down on knees* oh gawd, thank you. Thank you!

NO KA OI COOKIE COMPANY… I love you!!! Can I just end my review right there? I went to the Blaisdell Farmer’s Market yesterday and just happen to pass by this booth. I usually don’t like to try new baked goods, cuz usually they’re not to my liking. But after looking at what they had to offer, I decided to take one home. I got a peanut butter chocolate brownie. It was like a mini brownie cake… that’s how big it was.
After dinner I took it out of the bag and got my spoon and cut into it. Expecting it to be all hard I was amazIngly surprised when my spoon went in smoothly into the brownie. After one bite, I was hooked. It was exacly how I like my brownies… soft and chewy with a crunchy/​chewy corner. What’s best about this brownie is you get all four corners to yourself. There was one thing I wished I had done before I DEVOURED this brownie… warm it up in the micro. OMGOSH, now that I think about it, I should’ve added a scoop of vanilla ice cream with it… O M G!!!
I am definitely going back to this farmers market to grab more of these goodies for my family to try. Yes, I devoured them all by myself.
Don’t let the cost deter you from buying. For each brownie of goodness it’s $ 3.50, but it is sooo worth it. This place is a MUST!!!

Chocolate Brownie for $ 3. Nice & thick! Crunchy on the sides & soft/​delicious in the middle.

No Ka Oi Cookie Company makes everything it seems from butter mochi to cookies to brownies. They use premium ingredients and the taste is fantastic! I’ve passed their stall a couple times at various farmer’s market, but I finally stopped by to take a look at their stuff last night at the Farmer’s market at the Blaisdell center.
I bought their chewy chocolate brownie for $ 3. They use local Waialua chocolate and sometimes Madre chocolate. The texture, the taste, the smell in one word: Amazing. The brownie is crunchy on the outside and chewy and moist on the inside. Absolutely fantastic! Plus, the brownie is a lot bigger than I expected, so it was $ 3 well spent!
The only sad part is that they are only located at the farmer’s market and I can’t just walk into a shop and pick up goodies whenever I want. I hope you guys open up a shop soon! I’m craving your baked goods already~

No Ka Oi Cookie Company is at the Honolulu Farmer’s market every other week. We have been enjoying their huge scones every other week. Their scones are pretty good on the day 2, day 3 as well.

these are the best cookies ever! you have to try them to believe it. better than any big corporate cookie company because they are homemade, handmade from scratch in a home kitchen. it doesn’t get any better than this! chocolate chip mac nut, butter cornflake, and oatmeal raisin, yummm! :)

I have been gobbling down Tiare Nakayama No Ka Oi Cookies for the past two weeks, and cannot stop! Crunchy, light and just the best as you get. I am sending them for Xmas presents in paks of all the assorted flavors, but I seem to favor the oatmeal raisins and cornflake ones most, though I like the Mac Nut chocochip ones too. She gave me a couple of samples of the peanut butter ones, but I have not eaten them yet… will review those later! Highest recommendation for this relatively new company… DA BEST!

mmmmm! just had some cornflake cookies… light and crispy with the right amount of sweet!!! soooo delicious! can’t wait to try the other flavors!
