Guava Malasada

Guava : 

 

Th filling is rich in flavor and consultancy of the pink guava purée.

it is not overly sweet and has a slight bite to it in the back.

You can definitely know its guava but does have a grainy texture from the added sugar 

 


Strawberry Malasada

Strawberry Malasada

Strawberry :

he filling is very sweet and has a good amount of cor surup makeing me believe its not made in house. A big disappointment to me.

There is not really any flavor of the strawberry in this at all just overly sweet and has an elasticity o it


Haupia Malasada

Haupia Malasada

Haupia (Coconut)​ :

The filling is very frothy and has a constantly of marshmallow fluff.​

It has a big flavor of the coconut and is probably made by whipping coconut milk and powdered sugar.​

This by far is the best in flavor to the name but is so sweet and could have been cut down in sweetness my adding some citrus. ​
