点评:If you’re driving from Kona toward Hawai‘i Volcanoes National Park, definitely pull over at Punaluʻu Bake Shop. It’s not just a rest stop — it’s a destination. Known as the southernmost bakery in the United States, this roadside gem is the perfect place to stretch your legs and grab something sweet.
Malasadas Worth the Detour (and Then Some)
We originally stopped in for a quick Malasada fix — but walked out with more: a full box of sweet bread loaves. The hardest part? Choosing flavors. Between the original, taro, guava, and cinnamon-raisin mac nut. In fact, when the person checking us in at the airport asked if we had bought the cinnamon-raisin mac nut because it “makes amazing French toast,” I knew we’d made the right call.
More Than Just a Bakery
Beyond the bread, Punaluʻu Bake Shop’s café offers a range of breakfast and lunch options — from sandwiches and burgers to smoothies, locally roasted coffee, and fresh pastries. There’s outdoor seating surrounded by tropical gardens.
If you’re looking for a great place to stop — for coffee, malasadas, or simply to soak in a bit of local flavor — this is it. Come for the pastries, stay for the atmosphere.
翻译:如果您从科纳开车前往夏威夷火山国家公园,一定要在普纳鲁吾烘焙坊 (Punaluʻu Bake Shop) 稍作停留。它不仅仅是一个休息站,更是一个目的地。这家路边的瑰宝被称为美国最南端的烘焙坊,是您放松身心、品尝甜点的绝佳去处。
值得绕道而行的马拉萨达 (Malasadas)
我们原本想在这里快速享用一顿马拉萨达,但出来时却带回了更多:满满一盒甜面包。最难的部分?选择口味。有原味、芋头味、番石榴味和肉桂葡萄干坚果通心粉味。事实上,当机场值机人员问我们是不是买了肉桂葡萄干坚果通心粉味,因为它“做法式吐司味道好极了”时,我就知道我们选对了。
不仅仅是一家面包店
除了面包,Punaluʻu Bake Shop 的咖啡馆还提供各种早餐和午餐选择——从三明治、汉堡到冰沙、本地烘焙咖啡和新鲜糕点。店内设有户外座位,周围环绕着热带花园。
如果您想找个好地方小憩——喝杯咖啡、吃点马拉萨达,或者只是想感受一下当地风情——这里就是您的理想之选。来这里是为了糕点,留下来是为了享受这里的氛围。
