Coming Soon: Purvé Donut Shop

Sorry folks, you can't get these decadent donuts just yet. But here's a sneak peak of what's to come from Purvé Donut Shop, which owned and operated by Briton Zablan and Nick Cornford.

Purvé is located at the newly renovated Iolani Center at 1234 Kona Street, which was originally entirely a clothing factory. The owners of the clothing factory reduced the size of the factory and subdivided it into a handful of smaller units, one of which is occupied by Purvé.

Purvé will specialize in made-to-order hand-decorated cake donuts. 

Imagine hot, fresh, moist cake donuts topped with your favorite flavored icings and toppings like crushed oreos, bacon, sprinkles, chocolate chips, KitKat bars, and various cereals.

In case you were wondering what their signature donut is going to be ...

it is the Mint and Oreo.

But IMHO, the S'mores may give the Mint and Oreo some competition ....

They're even experimenting with a matcha glaze which is amazing - not too sweet and not too intense. 

Purvé will also feature Kai Coffee, which I am truly excited about, because nothing goes better with donuts than high quality coffee.  

Follow Purvé on Instagram to see what they're up to, because you DONUT want to miss their grand opening, which is coming soon!

Synopsis:
Three thousand years ago, the greatest sailors in the world voyaged across the vast South Pacific, discovering the many islands of Oceania. But then, for a millennium, their voyages stopped – and no one today knows why. From Walt Disney Animation Studios comes “Moana,” a sweeping, CG-animated adventure about a spirited teenager who sails out on a daring mission to prove herself a master wayfinder and fulfill her ancestors’ unfinished quest. During her journey, Moana (voice of Auli’i Cravalho) meets the once-mighty demi-god Maui (voice of Dwayne Johnson), and together, they traverse the open ocean on an action-packed voyage, encountering enormous fiery creatures and impossible odds. Directed by the renowned filmmaking team of Ron Clements and John Musker (“The Little Mermaid,” “Aladdin,” “The Princess & the Frog”), and produced by Osnat Shurer (“Lifted,” “One Man Band”), “Moana” sails into U.S. theaters on Nov. 23, 2016.
