I love Hawaiian Bread, and I love French Toast. King’s Hawaiian bread is so soft and delicately sweet, their one-pound round loaf makes a perfect quick weekend breakfast.
And with homemade Strawberry Maple Syrup, you don’t need to hop in the car and head to the local pancake house.
Keep your jammies on a little longer on this cold winter day.

Tia, I’m not sure where you live, but I have found it in most grocery stores in America in the bread aisle (even Wal-Mart). It comes in a bright orange bag..
