A Hawaiian favorite, Haupia is a coconut thick pudding. When added to a decadent chocolate pie pudding, the taste is amazing.

Chocolate Coconut Haupia pie became very popular as a dessert at Ted’s Bakery in Oahu’s North Shore.

Our pie uses a traditional pie crust, but at Ted’s Bakery they use a macadamia nut shortbread crust – which you can substitute.

Haupia is a coconut pudding made with coconut milk. It is delicious on it’s own, but adding the chocolate with a pie crust will become a family favorite.
