Original Hawaiian Sweet Rolls - 12 ct - 12 oz

At King's Hawaiian, our mouthwatering tale begins in the 1950s in Hilo, Hawaii, where Robert R. Taira, the Hawaiian-born son of Japanese immigrants, opened his first bakeshop, Robert's Bakery. His soft round loaves of Original Hawaiian Sweet Bread were so loved that locals and tourists shipped them to the mainland as gifts. Our family still runs the bakery today, and while it has grown, our values and recipes have remained the same.

Reach for these rolls as a sweet upgrade from plain bread, buns, brioche or potato bread. They're right at home in breakfast sandwiches, on snack boards and alongside family dinners, and plenty of our 'ohana use them for little ham sandwiches. Want to get creative? Try them in monkey bread, desserts or even as a pizza crust.

Common Questions

What kind of bread is best for sliders and mini sandwiches?
Small, soft, slightly sweet rolls make great slider bread, and our King's Hawaiian Original Hawaiian Sweet Rolls are a favorite for it. Slider buns need to be bite-sized, tender enough to bite through without squeezing out the filling, and flavorful enough to stand up to salty meats and melted cheese. Each 12 oz package holds 12 rolls, and our 'ohana loves them for pulled pork sliders, ham and cheese sliders, or stacked with deli meats and cheeses. Their signature hint of sweetness is what makes a salty ham sandwich so irresistible.

What's a good sweet alternative to brioche or potato rolls?
If you love brioche or potato rolls but want something sweeter, try our King's Hawaiian Original Hawaiian Sweet Rolls. Brioche is rich and eggy, and potato rolls are soft and mild. Ours are soft, fluffy and melt-in-your-mouth tender, with just the right touch of sweetness. We bake them from our original sweet recipe for a bakery-fresh flavor, and we think of them as a delicious upgrade from plain bread, buns, brioche or potato bread. They're easy to swap in anywhere you'd use those rolls, from family dinners to holiday gatherings.

Can I use King's Hawaiian rolls as hamburger or hot dog buns?
Yes! Our King's Hawaiian Original Hawaiian Sweet Rolls work as both. Use 4 rolls together as a hamburger bun, or slice 3 rolls to make a hot dog bun. The sweet, soft bread pairs nicely with a savory grilled patty or hot dog.

Are King's Hawaiian Original rolls gluten-free?
No, our King's Hawaiian Original Hawaiian Sweet Rolls are not gluten-free. They're made with enriched wheat flour, malted barley flour, wheat gluten and wheat starch.

Do King's Hawaiian Original rolls contain dairy or eggs?
Yes, our King's Hawaiian Original Hawaiian Sweet Rolls contain both dairy and eggs. We bake them with real butter and eggs, and the recipe also includes whey and nonfat milk. Soy flour is in there too.

Do King's Hawaiian rolls have high fructose corn syrup or artificial dyes?
No. Our King's Hawaiian Original Hawaiian Sweet Rolls are made with no high fructose corn syrup and no artificial dyes. Their sweetness comes from sugar in our original recipe. The rolls are also certified kosher.

What else can I make with King's Hawaiian rolls besides sandwiches?
Our King's Hawaiian Original Hawaiian Sweet Rolls go well beyond sandwiches: try them in monkey bread, other desserts, kid-friendly snacks, or even as a pizza crust. They're lovely on a snack board and work as a quick side for breakfast, lunch or dinner.
