Island Treasures: Standard Bakery Inc.

Standard Bakery is known for baked goods that are made from scratch, using the best ingredients and baked fresh daily.

Lloyd Fujino, owner of Standard Bakery, believes the bakery was first started in the early 1930’s by his grandparents, Masayuki and Haruno Fujino. Originally located in Captain Cook, the bakery was relocated to their current location in Kainaliu around 1940. Past presidents were their sons Hiroshi, Robert, Yasuo (Lloydʻs father), and currently, Lloyd is the president.

In earlier years, “Mother’s Bread” was the product Standard Bakery was best known for. Today, their Chantilly cake and Brioche buns are the top sellers. They sell wholesale to markets, hotels, and restaurants, which is a major part of their business. Local products such as Chantilly cakes and rolls, Anpan, Cocopan, Cream Snails, etc. can be found in stores across the island, as well as in their retail shop—but you have to get there early! Other baked goods such as cookies, donuts and pies are sold in their retail shop, as well as items for lunches, meetings and events, such as bentos, musubi, curry and tripe stews, hamburger and teriyaki burgers, Korean chicken and loco moco. They are also known to have best malasadas and donuts on the island!

About the bakery, Lloyd shares, “our products are fantastically fresh, never sacrificing quality to ensure outstanding flavor from the very first bite. We pride ourselves on delivering the tastiest and freshest baked goods to our most discerning customers, so call or visit our bakery today to place an order for any event, meeting, or breakfast time need!”

Whether you are searching for one of their special birthday cakes or simply looking for a sweet ending to an everyday meal, Standard Bakery offers something for everyone. Their baked goods are just what you need to make any special celebration that much better. Sheet cakes and specialty cakes are also available.

The bakery even offers their products for fundraising events so non-profits can sell tasty treats while bringing in money for their favorite cause.

This is a one of a kind bakery, where the aroma of home-style baking weakens even the strongest will. Come visit us and try one of our many specialty items. For custom creations, they recommend ordering one week in advance! ❖
