Hawai’i
Marking its 20th anniversary in 2018, Honolulu Cookie company has been baking its premium shortbread cookies fresh daily in Hawai’i since 1998.

Can you mail cookies from Hawaii?
1. Some baked goods ship better than others – Unfrosted cakes, pound cakes, breads (but not yeast) muffins, brownies, oatmeal and chocolate chip cookies are usually safe to ship. Choose baked goods that are firm, moist and hard but avoid the brittle ones as they obviously will not hold up when shipped.

Yes, ALL cookie flavors contain dairy or milk products.
Why are Honolulu cookies so expensive?
Yamashita: The individual raw ingredients are basic commodities such as butter, sugar, flour, etc. We do use a high-end chocolate in our recipes that call for chocolate, and we try to source locally as much as possible. But underlying the basic ingredient costs is the high cost of shipping the items to Hawaii.
What is the shelf life of Honolulu cookies?
There is no expiration date so, if you come here every year (like we do), you don’t need to buy everything at one trip. A really nice gift box is the $8.95 “Pineapple WIndow Gift Box” which contains 8 premium shortbread cookies in a sturdy and fancy box.
How do you keep cookies fresh when mailing?
How to Package Cookies for Mailing
- Use a durable, rigid box or empty tin as a mailing container.
- Wrap four to six cookies of the same size together in aluminum foil, plastic wrap or plastic bags.
- Don’t pack crisp and soft cookies together.
Should I freeze cookies before mailing?
Should I Freeze Cookies Before Shipping? Unless you can keep them frozen while they ship, I don’t recommend mailing frozen cookies. They will most likely thaw during shipment which can cause them to spoil from the excess moisture or they will show up soft and, well, yucky.
How long will cookies last in the mail?
Most cookie recipes last about a week; sometimes up to two weeks. The point is, you don’t want them to arrive just as they’re reaching their best-by date, so don’t ship them via parcel post or any other method that will have your cookies in transit for a week or longer.
How long do cookies stay good for?
Bakery or homemade cookies can be stored at room temperature two to three weeks or two months in the refrigerator. Cookies retain their quality when stored in the freezer for eight to 12 months.
