History

Established in 1933.

Soiichi Ohta started Hawaii Candy specializing in hard candies and «senbei» — Japanese tea wafer cookies in 1933.

In 1941, Soichi purchased Nakano Candy Factory and renamed his little company Ohta Candy Factory. He relocated to Nuuanu Avenue and developed the Red Coconut Balls. He also made all different flavors of candies including Cinnamon Balls, Lemon Drops, Chestnut Drops, and Fish (shaped) Candy.

In 1954, he purchased what is now known as Hawaii Candy. With the purchase of the company came the machines used to make candy. He had two locations, one on Liliha Street which sold Senbei and candy, the other on Nuuanu sold candy only.

Hawaii Candy’s manufacturing and distribution facility is currently situated near the Honolulu International Airport.

Now on it’s 3rd generation of Ohtas, we specialize in Fortune Cookies, different flavors of wafer cookies (Ginger, Coconut, Sesame, Petite and Waf-​O-​Roll), Puff Rice Cakes, Wun Tun Strips, Red Coconut Balls and Macadamia Nut Cookies.
