Leonard's Bakery

Leonard's Bakery is a Portuguese bakery in Honolulu, Hawaii, known for popularizing the malasada. The fried pastry, slightly crispier and chewier than a doughnut and with no hole, is known as a cuisine of Hawaii. Though Portuguese immigrants brought the malasada to Hawaii at the turn of the 20th century, Leonard's opened in 1952 and brought it to a wider audience. They offer filled and sugar-coated malasadas as well as coffee cakes, sweet bread, and pão doce meat wraps. Leonard's is a household name in Hawaii and is well known in the continental United States and internationally. A franchise location opened in Japan in 2008.
== Background and history ==

Margaret and Frank Leonard Rego Sr. opened Leonard's Bakery in 1952. Rego's mother had encouraged him to sell malasadas,〔 a holeless Portuguese doughnut with a "crispier" outside and a "chewier" inside.〔 Portuguese plantation workers brought the dessert to the Hawaiian islands when they immigrated at the turn of the 20th century, though Leonard's is known for popularizing it.〔 The plain malasadas are coated with white sugar, but the bakery sells variations garnished with cinnamon or filled with haupia, custard,〔 or chocolate pudding.〔 The bakery sells anthropomorphized malasada stuffed animals and other malasada-related items.〔 Leonard's is otherwise an "old-fashioned, plain-Jane bakery"〔 that sells coffee cakes, sweet bread, and pão doce meat wraps. As of 2011, the bakery remains a family business owned by Leonard Rego Jr. whose own children participate in its operation just as he once did.〔
Andrew McCarthy of the ''National Geographic Traveler'' wrote that the bakery is an institution that "anchored" its neighborhood.〔 In Hawaii, Leonard's is a "household name".〔 Residents from the other Hawaiian islands often bring home Leonard's malasadas as an ''omiyage'' (souvenir gift).〔 The fried doughnut-like item may be unique to Hawaii,〔 but are well known both in the continental United States and internationally.〔〔〔〔〔 The Honolulu bakery is a point of interest on at least one island tour.〔 In 2012, the ''Honolulu Star-Advertiser'' reported that the bakery sold over 15,000 malasadas daily, or over 160 million since its opening.〔
Rego Jr. opened a franchise location in Japan's Yokohama World Quarter Shopping Center in December 2008. The location only sold cinnamon and sugar malasadas at first,〔 but later added malasadas with fillings. Japanese investors Forest Inc. first asked Rego Jr. about licensing the brand in March 2008, and Rego Jr. felt that the timing with the Great Recession "couldn't have been more perfect".〔 The deal was completed three months prior to the opening, and the owner flew in to train the staff for a week and a half. Rego Jr. plans to open more franchised locations in Japan and on the other islands of Hawaii. In 2009, the company employed 60 people between three stores (two in Oahu and one in Yokohama) and two Oahu food trucks.〔
