The Wonder Hawaiian Buns are being launched just in time for grilling season to offer consumers a way to enhance their favorite meals with a touch of pillowy sweetness. The buns boast a very light texture with just the right amount of sweetness and come in 15-ounce packs with eight servings in each. The buns are perfect for burgers, but will also shine with a range of additional ingredients to make them a versatile option to incorporate into a barbecue spread.
Senior Vice President of Legacy Brands at Flowers Foods John Steed spoke on the Wonder Hawaiian Buns saying, "Consumers are looking for options in the bun category with a sweeter flavor profile. The formula we’ve created for our new Wonder Hawaiian Buns is truly the perfect tropical blend. It’s sweet, yet savory, and the build incorporates our classic Wonder soft texture that is still sturdy enough to pile on the ingredients.”
