King’s Hawaiian is branching out from its sweet and soft buns with the launch of more savory Butter Buns.

A foodservice exclusive product, the new Butter Buns will boast the same pillowy soft texture that fans expect from King’s Hawaiian. However, instead of that unmistakable hint of sweetness, the new Butter Buns will have a slightly more savory flavor profile. The new Butter Buns recipe features real butter, eggs, dairy, and enriched dough to create an extra-buttery bun that is sort of a cross between a dinner roll and a proper brioche bun. The result is a versatile product that restaurants can use for everything from burgers and fried chicken, to diner melts and breakfast sandwiches.
