Try The Delectable Island Flavors Of Hawaiian Jellys

By Leslie Ball


Hawaiian magic calls to most everyone who has been there. Most would love to return, and many do. The island escape, engaging entertainment and sights of water and nature make an unbeatable combination as a travel destination. For those who arrive, they often wish to depart with a souvenir that reminds them of the flavors and sounds they enjoyed.

Islanders do their best to share what they have with curious visitors. Businesses all over the islands offer just the right blend of the exotic and enticing. So it is no surprise that packaging the local flavors is not only friendly, but just good business. For many, the luscious fruits are what they crave, so preserving them in tasty Hawaiian jellys is a perfect way to enjoy the delectable produce.

Though many would choose pineapple as their favorite, an enticing array of other fruits are also preserved. Starfruit, guava, passion fruit and mango all are used in lovely recipes. Mulberry, ginger and coconut find their way into delightful combinations. Whatever the preserves, they are bottled with care and prepared for shipping.

The craftsmen who make these treasures add a bit of aloha to each batch. Many are made with Maui sugar grown locally, and the fruits featured are grown right on the island. The climate and rich soil contribute to prime growing conditions. The produce is flavorful and fresh. Some chefs have been known to dump out a batch that did not meet their strict standards for color, texture and taste. There are some who specialize in small batches only, working a few days at a time to create the perfect product.

There are two time tested ways to have some of these lovely products. Buying them in gift assortments at local shops or museums is one, and the other is to make a convenient online order direct from the company. Some pride themselves on delivering their wares in pretty woven baskets decorated with flowers and gift tags featuring Hawaiian art or Maui scenes. Others make jar toppers using the color island fabrics so often seen in shirts and muumuus. These could be tied on with ribbons or strands of strings. Whatever the packaging, it is designed to provide safe and attractive deliveries straight to homes most anywhere.

These healthy products use locally sourced Maui cane sugar in just the right amounts. Pretty gift baskets are packaged in woven baskets featuring island plant materials. Ribbons with flowers complete the presentation. Some factories top their jars with fabric rounds featuring designs from muumuus or shirts. Regardless of the embellishments, the jars are well packed for long distance shipping. The packaging is designed to safely transport the glistening preserves to their intended homes.

Factories making jelly are generally located in the island fruit belt. The best tropical produce grows here. The companies have access to perfectly ripe fruit at its peak. They work in consort, striving for the freshest products with the best taste.

A wonderful way to experience those Hawaiian flavors again is to order a combination gift pack online. There are many different assortments available at reasonable prices. They make lovely hostess gifts, a wedding present for a couple that loves Maui, or holiday gifts for anyone that would enjoy a very special gift with flavors from the tropics. Each one is thought to arrive with a bit of island magic included.
