Like most other Americans, Hawaii locals love their baked goods, and we have a plethora of bakeries to prove it. From the Portuguese bakery that introduced Hawaii to its favorite sweet treat — the malasada — to the bakery that serves its famous hot bread out its back window late at night, the Aloha State’s bakeries are phenomenal, to say the least. But this tiny little spot might just be the islands’ most unique. Tucked away on the grounds of an orchid nursery on Oahu’s windward coast is a shipping container turned bakeshop and you’ll want to visit right away.
Welcome to Origin Bakeshop, one of the most unique bakeries we’ve ever seen.

Tucked away off-the-beaten-path in Waikane Valley, an agricultural area of Oahu home to several nurseries and farms, Origin Bakeshop is a French-inspired patisserie housed in two converted shipping containers on the grounds of Nona’s Orchids.

Opened earlier this year, the authentic French pastries served at this out-of-the-box bakery are truly terrific.

Inside the baby pink shipping container, you will not only find a counter stocked with packaged pastries in a plexiglass display but tropical plants for sale as well.

From traditional French caneles, croissants, and pain au chocolat, to scones and cookies, you’ll find something here to satisfy everyone’s sweet tooth.

Will you order a mango, white chocolate, and pink peppercorn scone or a tiramisu cookie with a soft, espresso cream center? The chocolate chip, rose, and cardamon cookie is also a best-seller.

Pair any of their sweet treats with a cup of coffee and you’ll be in heaven.

Come early: rumor has it that by late morning, some of the items — mainly the most popular croissants and cookies — are often sold out. So, what are you waiting for?
