Hawaii’s Special Papaya Seed Dressing original recipe has a tantalizing sweet/tart flavor. It has become a hit sensation with the Hawaiian community as well as visitors from around the world. Be sure to try our other flavors!

Papaya seed dressing is a classic and popular favorite in the Aloha State. Pupukea Gardens, on Oahu’s North shore, manufactures four delicious flavors of this tasty treat.
These dressings are offered under the brand Hawaii’s Special and are widely available in stores statewide. Their alluring flavors appeal to people worldwide of all backgrounds and ages. Only the fresh seeds from Hawaiian grown papaya are used in our dressings. These seeds contribute a peppery taste to complement the all natural spices and flavors used to make our mouth-watering varieties.
Hawaii’s Special papaya seed dressings contain no preservatives since the vinegar content provides ample acidity to extend a one year shelf life. In addition to topping green and pasta salads, our dressing flavors make excellent marinades for meat, chicken, fish and shrimp. Aloha and Enjoy!
