I’m here to let you in on a little secret, King’s Hawaiian makes Jalapeno Rolls that are now sold in grocery stores nationwide!
That’s right, those deliciously sweet little rolls that we’ve all come to know and love are now available with a little kick, and let me know tell you, the combination of sweet and spicy makes me SO happy!
The first time I introduced King’s Hawaiian Jalapeno Rolls on the blog was in this recipe for Roasted Jalapeno Honey Carne Asada Sliders (O-M-G Yum!) and since then I haven’t been able to stop eating them!
