Wow. Thanks for sharing the history, it makes me appreciate the thought and effort in creating that simple looking dessert. Will definitely order that when I go back to Hawaii.

I look forward to an eating tour in Hawai'i with you, maybe next year. I bet there would be other takers. xxe Hungry in California

Love this story! I can understand being put off by anything with licorice flavors in it, but all of those other details make me really want to try it!
