There are some desserts that can instantly transport you to another time and another place. For me, that’s this chocolate haupia pie.

Our family loves exploring Oahu when we visit Hawaii with our kids. We drive all over the island to play at beaches, watch surfers, and try new foods.

The North Shore of Oahu is one of those iconic places in Hawaii that is absolutely worth a stop. It’s known as the surfing capital of the world, and it’s a really cool mix of nostalgia and hipster.

One of the most popular places to eat on the North Shore is Ted’s Bakery. While they make a fantastic plate lunch, they are most famous for their Hawaiian pies.

Out of all of their incredible pies, I think my favorite is their chocolate haupia pie. It’s the perfect mix of their chocolate and coconut cream pies. We love getting a slice to share at the restaurant and then grabbing a pie to bring back to enjoy throughout our trip!

It’s been a while since we’ve been able to visit the North Shore, so I decided to try to recreate our Hawaii vacation by making this chocolate haupia pie for my family. Enjoy!

Haupia Pie FAQs

Can you use haupia mix to make a haupia pie?

If you don’t want to make your haupia from scratch, you can always use a mix. But it tastes better if you make it from scratch (and it’s not too hard!)

What does haupia taste like?

It’s like a smooth, creamy coconut jelly that is just heavenly! While it tastes like coconut, it’s not an overwhelming flavor, so it’s easy to pair with lots of things to create tropical desserts. Or just enjoy haupia on its own!

How do you pronounce haupia?

It’s pronounced how-pee-ah.

What does haupia mean in Hawaiian?

“Hau” means cool, and “Pia” means arrowroot. Arrowroot is traditionally used for thickening up pies, and some think the “cool” is related to this light and refreshing pie flavor.
