The [Honolulu Cookie Company's](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/honolulu-hot-chicken-sandwich) creative cookie packaging shows off one of the most iconic island fruits. Although pineapples can be rather tricky to open, this pineapple-shaped box makes use of magnetic closures to easily open and close.

The tall box of treats unfold and reveals three tiers of premium [pineapple-shaped shortbread cookies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hello-kitty-friends-lunar-new-year-pineapple-cake-gift-box), which are freshly baked by hand each morning. The three different cookie collections are differentiated by colored boxes, featuring a dark red one for the Chocolate Collection, a bright yellow box for the Hawaiian Tropical Collection and a breezy blue box for the Ultimate Collection. Since there are a lot of tourists who visit Hawaii, these [gorgeous gift boxes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/customizable-cookie-box) are ideal for taking home, or even opening up and snacking on while visiting the island to get a true taste of Hawaii.
