Dukes Lane Market & Eatery

Dukes Lane Market & Eatery is home to a handful of shops. One of my favorite spots has been the bakery. The bakery offer some of the best mochi malasadas. It's better than a mochi donut. I enjoyed the original mochi malasada but some of the other flavors are mango, milk tea boba, and ube.  I recommend going before 9AM so you can get them fresh. They are priced at 2 for $2.50 but I'm sure you'll walk away with half dozen minimum because these are tiny. They also have regular malasadas without the mochi and other baked goods.

Pipeline Bakeshop & Creamery

Pipeline Bakeshop & Creamery is known for their plump malasadas that do not deflate. The malasadas are made to order so they are always fresh. The shop has other baked goods like cake bombs, cookies, dessert bars, and ice cream. They stayed open during the pandemic for online orders and walk in orders. During Christmas, they make a chocolate peppermint cake bomb. It's priced at $5 but it's the best holiday treat to get you in the mood. Some of my other favorites are the lilikoi cream cheese bar and original malasada. 

The online ordering is still available now but I recommend walking into the shop for pick up in person rather than curbside. There is no street parking available in front of the shop and other vehicles are parked in front picking up food/drinks from other businesses. They do not take phone orders and they do not answer the phone during business hours. It seems like walk in customers get first priority. 

They are in the Kaimuki area and I'm in this area picking up lunch a few times each month. The baked goods and malasadas from Pipeline keep me coming back because it's that good. You can follow them on Instagram, @pipelinebakeshop, for specials.
