Description
Malasada (already) variations: the original Leonardʻs malasada is plain, rolled in sugar. Modern variations include: haupia-filled (coconut cream custard inside), chocolate-filled, ube (purple yam)-filled, li hing mui-dusted (Chinese plum powder on Portuguese dough — two cultures in one bite), custard-filled, and guava-filled. Each filling represents a different Hawaiian cultural thread injected into the Portuguese dough format.
