"While Pipeline is a relative newcomer, their fluffy malasadas instantly became a favorite—they’re right up there with popular spot Leonard’s Bakery. They come fried to order (get them with a dusting of puckery-sweet li hing powder) and are best if you eat them right away (though, unlike most other malasadas, are still good the next day). The grab-and-go spot also offers baked goods like pumpkin crunch and lilikoi bars, as well as ice cream, including a signature malafrozada flavor, studded with malasada chunks." - martha cheng
"Like the best spots, Pipeline fries its malasadas to order, and you should definitely enjoy one while hot. But unlike other spots, malasadas from Pipeline have superior shelf life, remaining delicious a day after you pick them up. They strike the perfect balance between airy and hefty, and come dusted in toppings like sugar, coffee, and cocoa. Must-try dish: Go for the one topped with puckeringly sour-sweet li hing sugar." - Martha Cheng
"Malasadas are Portuguese fried donuts, but they’re a staple on Oahu. And while you can seek out a couple of places to get them on the island (including the touristy and extremely delicious Leonard’s Bakery) you’ll find the best at Pipeline. These donuts come fried to order, and you should definitely get them with a dusting of puckery-sweet li hing powder. They’re obviously best if you eat them straight away, though unlike most other malasadas, these are still good the next day." - carlo mantuano, team infatuation

"If you get only one thing from Pipeline, it should be a malassada, fried to order. It’s more fluffy than doughy but still carries some heft, and it’s especially excellent dusted in li hing, a sweet-and-sour plum powder. If you have space for more sweets, try the cake bomb, a mini Bundt cake that comes in flavors like strawberry guava. Pipeline also serves an exemplary version of the beloved pumpkin crunch, which consists of a pecan crumble crust topped with a tall layer of pumpkin and an equally lofty layer of whipped topping." - Martha Cheng
