The Cookie Lady Hawaii

My absolute favorite cookie place on the entire island! My all time favorite is the cornflake cookies but, I tried the lemon flavor today and it was amazing.
The staff is always friendly and very welcoming. The cookie lady herself is usually there too!

Best unknown local cookies you can get. Fresh quality ingredients baked with love equals a delicious, crisp oh so ono cookie. Our favorites are the shortbread mac nut, chocolate chip mac nut and the almond. They also have flavor of the month specials at times and these are great too.
When we travel to the Mainland we have to take a lot to fill requests from family and friends. They provide a handy travel box that is quite sturdy for a reasonable price. Fits right into the overhead bin. We get frequent thumbs up from the flight attendants when they see our box as they tell us they enjoy the cookies from here also.
The service here is prompt and friendly. It is truly a small business with the Mom and daughter running the show. Mom is the real Cookie Lady and her likeness is on the package. The cookies make people very happy at Christmas and you need to order now for pick up for this holiday season.
I do like The Cookie Corner and Big Island Candies for cookies. But these two companies fall a little short in the onolicious category when compared to our favorite, hands down The Cookie Lady! Give them a try and you will not be disappointed. Only alert is if you like chewy and soft cookies, this is not the place for you.

I love this place!!! A Small business in the heart of Waipahu. They always have what I want in stock. There cookies are to die for!!! My favorites are chocolate chip, fruity pebble, and Mochi crunch. They also have lots of other flavors. Prices are very reasonable!!! I recommend this place for all the cookie lovers!!!

Bought a bunch of red bags to give away as after Christmas gifts…
Pros:
–Met the Cookie Lady herself and her daughter. They were both very sweet!!!
–Only sampled the cornflake and almond cookies — delicious! Wish I had bought a jar!
–Lots of parking.
–I’m terrible with directions, but I managed to get here. They’re on «Akoki» street. It sounds like «A Cookie» street! Fitting.
–Aroma: before we walked in we could smell something tasty in the oven!
–HOMEMADE GOODNESS: I saw TCL with my own eyes baking up a batch of chex mix JUST LIKE I WOULD AT HOME. Huge foil pan, spatula, and all. It boggles my mind to think of how many batches she has to make to fill up all those bags!!! I guess I’ve watched too many «Unwrapped» episodes where you see goodies traveling along on conveyor belts.
Cons:
None!

I’m not a big sweet eater but those cookies are delicious! Tried lemon and cornflakes tastes so nice and crispy. Thank u so much Teri!

Saw a lady in CostCo with a huge flat wagon loaded with oil, flower, butter, and sugar. I commented to her that I bet she was going to do some serious baking.
She smiled and gave me her card. Boy, am I glad I spoke up. There is a store right here in Kaneohe. :)

After making a trip to the Waipahu transfer station (dump) I decided to hunt down this cookie shop which I noticed got very good reviews. It is a few streets back from the highway and easy to miss as it is literally in a warehouse. The storefront is little more than two sets of shelving and a cashier with an ipad.
I picked up all of the popular flavors including lemon, cornflake and almond. I was not impressed by any of them unfortunately. They tasted rather bland and had nothing special that I could notice aside from the nice packaging. I can make better cookies than those.
Overall, maybe it just gets high reviews because it is out on the west side where good desserts are scarce or maybe it is just overrated. Either way, one trip was enough for me.

WHAT
THE
HECK
MAN!!!
This magical cookie factory of sweet dreams is conveniently located about 2 mins away from my home, hehehe. I’m so stoked I received a tub of almond cookies. It was literally love at first bite… I’ve never ever experienced an almond cookie that literally melts in your mouth. Although it’s the only cookie I’ve gotten to try, I’m pretty excited to try the rest.
Totally recommend you come here first BEFORE hitting Wholesale Unlimited in the same area ;)

Had a great experience here. Very sweet ladies who were helpful and friendly. We bought a variety of the crunchy cookies. All were delicious and excellent quality. We purchased directly to the shop from Waipahu. It was easy to get to with phone directions.
We look forward to going again when we return for another vacation. Our family will enjoy the cookies we brought them too! A cute shop with great cookies! :)

I love their story. Mom started baking cookies as a hobby, then started to sell them by word of mouth, then they opened shop in Waipahu where they also bake their cookies, and now they’re available in retail shops like Carousel Candyland in Kahala Mall, Samurai Snacks, Hilo Hattie, Matsumoto Shave Ice, and a few other places.
But, no sense in paying retail price when you can buy them direct from their shop in Waipahu. If you’re not familiar with Waipahu, you should definitely use the map function on your Unilocal app, because I get lost trying to find this place from memory.
Flavors available: lemon (best seller), cornflake, almond, chocolate chip, peanut butter chocolate chip, peanut butter, chocolate chip with mac nuts, rice krispies, oatmeal raisin, fruity pebbles, sprinkles, mochi crunch
Packages are $ 6.50 (10 cookies), jars are $ 25 (50 – 60 cookies).
She’s so popular that she starts taking orders for the holidays usually around now (end of summer) and stops taking orders when she’s reached capacity. They make great gifts for the holidays or for any occasion.
Many have asked, and unfortunately they do not ship to the mainland (cookies are too fragile).
My personal faves: LEMON, ALMOND!

Oh hello little cookie factory of wonders, hidden deep in Waipahu. To be honest, I made this trip a real trip by going to this place and Wholesale Unlimited, a quick 2 minute trip away from each other (by car. Or if you run quickly, I guess it could be 5 minutes).
You pull up to this factory looking place with The Cookie Lady Hawaii sign flying high and happy and you’re like… what. What is going on. Is this a shop or their secret factory where they make secret delicious cookies? Plenty of parking (and no one really there on a Thursday afternoon anyway).
One lady is working hard packaging… banana bread to sell. Thought I was going to say packaging cookies right? There’s a rack of bags of cookies (for $ 6) and a rack of jars of cookies (each $ 20). I debated whether or not to get the jar (jars seem better suited for the airplane ride home) but decided to go with variety rather than sheer quantity. They’re known for the lemon shortbread (AWESOME) but I also got the furikake cookies (DELICIOUS. Even when my mainland coworkers don’t know what it is, I make them eat it and then tell them they ate seaweed. Whoops. They don’t regret it at all), and cornflake cookies (CRUNCHY GREAT!).
I’ve decided you can do no wrong here. Oh and the kind lady working? She was a sweetie. Didn’t rush us as I debated how many bags to get and which ones to get. She is my cookie soulmate.

Awesome cookies. Try every flavor they’re all great. Their Lemon cookie is so delicious, a little tart and sweet and it just falls apart when it hits your mouth. The new furikake cookie is quite good if you have a salty sweet craving hits the spot. of course their rice crispy cookies are amazing. they just snap crackle and pop in your mouth. Really like the cornflake cookies also. You don’t even have to go to waipahu to get these, you can get them at Carousel Candy in Kahala mall. Usually we get them in bulk from Waipahu. Prices are reasonable for the quality of the product.

Hands down my favorite place for cookies! It’s a locally owned business and the owners are so so friendly! … Like that small town/​southern type of genuine hospitality. Their cookies are like crack. They’re all crunchy cookies, as opposed to the chewy chubby kind from cookie corner. I’m not going to add on about the flavors because I’m sure everyone else has already talked about that. Go try it :) It’s a tad hard to find if you’re not familiar with the Waipahu area, but it’s close to Fujifilm, the Filcom, and Frito Lay processing plant. Her red signature red bags, and cute caricature label are such a nice touch!

I LOVE CRUNCHY COOKIES!
I LOVE COOKIE LADY!
CAN SHE BE MY COOKIE MAMA?
The Cookie Lady has brought the hammer down on an age-​old debate: chewy vs. crunchy. On behalf of crunchy cookies everywhere, she has delivered the final blow. Even if you don’t like crunchy cookies, you WILL be converted! My coworker is a self-​proclaimed chewy cookie supporter, but has now made an exception for the BEST crunchy cookies ever. They’re thin, so when you bite into them, they make a nice, satisfying CRUNCH! Kinda reminds me of Kauai Kookies, but better.
I have tried chocolate chip, sprinkle, and peanut butter. Will have to try the infamous lemon cookies. You can buy jars or packages. Go big or go home and just get the jars. These make fantastic presents… speaking as a recipient myself. Yep, I still haven’t actually made it to the store. These were all presents from this awesome visitor in the clinic at work. Maybe she’s my surrogate cookie mama, and the cookie lady is my actual cookie mama.
Gonna make the trek out to Waipahu just for these. I know I’m a spoiled townie.

Went there today not even 3:15 and they were closed it says here 4:00
If you r not going to stay open till 4:00 then you need to change your hours
Here on Unilocal this is not good I can only give one star cuz you were closed :(

LEMON COOKIES!
I’ve had the opportunity to try The Cookie Lady Hawaii’s cookies from friends and family in the past and they always seem to give us the Lemon Cookies. I’ve been meaning to make a trip to the store and try some other flavors, but based on the countless gifts of Lemon Cookies we receive, I think it’s safe to say that it may be their most popular! And for good reason. It is sooooo delicious. It is not too tangy, not too sweet, not too crunchy, not too gooey. Perfect.
And I wasn’t the only one to think so. Someone else in my house keeps eating the cookies without leaving me any (*Cough* *Dad*)!

I LOVE THEIR COOKIES. Review done. LOL All kidding aside. There are a lot of cookie places that you can get your goodies from, but no one beats them. They are so good that they take Holiday orders in the summer and are closed in NOV/​DEC to fill in those orders. That just tells you how great they are. We actually ordered their cookies for my daughters first birthday and they were a hit. They have pebbles (cereal) cookies, chocolate macadamia nut, lemon, furikake. My favorite are the lemon cookies. Melts in your mouth.
Now let’s talk about their customer service. FABULOUS. Very friendly. You can even get a discount if you check in on facebook. Sorry Unilocal.They always inform you of upcoming specials.
If you’re planning a birthday party, graduation, wedding… they offer great favors.

A (bad) rhyme to help you decide if it is worth the drive to Waipahu just for these cookies:
If you are a fan of crispy cookies, stop in and give these a try.
If you stick to chewy cookies, drive on by.
I hope I have helped.
I am a fan of both types of cookie, and I live nearby, so this was an easy decision for me. Unfortunately, I forgot that my men both prefer chewy cookies, and that their preferred types of cookie (oatmeal and chocolate chip) really do taste better chewy. Oops! The cookies are delicious, but one bite of the thin, airy cookie has the rest of it shatter, and I missed being able to bite and chew in silence.
Luckily, my favorite crunchy cookies were well represented. Lemon, mochi, and cornflake, plus a few other delicious choices were begging to come home with me. So far I have only tried the lemon and the mochi, but I truly look forward to trying the others. They were light and delicate, but still packed with flavor. Just the right balance.
My men have let me know that I don’t need to bring more home for them, which is fine. Honestly, I only bought cookies for them to make it look as if I had not stopped in just for my own selfish pleasures. Next time it will be all me, and I will enjoy each perfectly crunchy bite!

Scrumdillyumptious! Melt in your mouth goodness. I almost finished a bag all by myself. I couldn’t wait to return home and eat it up with a glass of milk.
There are all sorts of flavored cookies from mochi crunch cookies to the normal flavor chocolate chip.
Today was my first time and I’m in love with first bite. I asked the cookie lady what is the most popular flavors, she told me furukaki and the lemon cookie. I only had $ 10 (she only takes cash or check) so I decided to try a flavor that I usually like, sprinkle cookies. A bag cost $ 6.50.
I’m going back to try the rest of the cookies. Hopefully, I’ll make in time to try out the other flavored smaller bags. It’s 3 cookies for $ 2.

While i was sick at home today, i had a very strong craving for some deserts. I wasn’t craving anything in particular. i Know, not shave ice or anything cold and i came across the cookie lady in Unilocal on my iphone app.
It was about 415pm and i said better go before they close.
I slapp on some clothes and try to find the place. I only live about 5 minutes away but got lost finding the place. Once my google maps told me where it was, i found it.
I step inside and surprise to find the owner there cleaning up and closing for the day. She let me sample the almond to let me know whats the texture of her cookies.
She said her most popular is the Lemon and second is the Almond.
The flavor of the month was furikake chex mix and i couldn;t pass that up. It was either that or the Mochi Krunch with the chocolate chips in it.
Over all, ive found the Omiyagi gift i can bring to outer island and to the mainland without spoiling or requiring refrigeration.
