Photohunt: Half
Half Dozen of Leonard’s Malasadas
I definitely had to hunt around to come up with something I wanted to use for half. This is a half dozen Malasadas. Malasadas are yeast donuts that are either rolled in sugar or filled with a custard. These are from the Leonard’s truck on Oahu Hawaii. They are a Portuguese tradition and very popular on the Hawaiian Islands. The minimum amount sold is a half-dozen. They are very rich but we had no problems eating the half-dozen!
Seeing those donuts made me miss Krispy Kreme’s which used to be available in Hong Kong but, alas, no longer! ;(
In Canada these are filled with jam and called “jam busters”. Used to love them when I was a kid. But I like the idea of custard better (such fond memories of eating those famous Portuguese custard tarts in Lisbon).
How can you eat those and be so slim! *envy*
I love this theme because people are coming up with things I never thought about, like “half” dozen. Somehow malasadas sounds more delicious than donuts. Great take on the theme!
that looks yummy … want some!
Do visit me too!
Ooohhhh those do look delicious!

That’s a great idea for the theme. They look so good I fear that I could eat the whole half dozen myself.
YUMMM! My family LOVE Leonards Malasadas! We or rather I can have Leonards Malasadas for breakfast, lunch or dinner… LOL
I can’t think of anything to post for “Half”… no imagination here. 🙂
They sound fantastic!! wonderful malasadas!!!
Delicious choice for the theme 🙂
We can get a Polish variety of those around here – filled with custard or plum jam. YUM It would be hard to stop at a half dozen.
that looks absolutely delicious and i don’t think i’ve problems finishing them all.
Very creative take on this theme – those look wonderfully/sinfully delicious!
OOh they look so good. I wonder if he will ship to England!
Love this take on the theme half! And sooo yummy!!!
