Right in time for a Mother’s Day delight, Big Island Candies recently joined forces with local lifestyle brand Fighting Eel to create a stylish confection and accessory collection. Featuring Fighting Eel’s iconic black and white fish design, the collection includes a decorative candy box and matching 100% silk scarves in three colorways.
“I believe collaboration is the essence of creativity and innovation,” explains Lan Chung, Founder and Designer of Fighting Eel. “Partnering with Big Island Candies allows us to merge fashion and flavor, bringing our iconic fish print to life in both delectable treats and versatile accessories. It’s about creating pieces that are beautiful, and functional, such as our multifunctional silk scarf that can be used in so many different ways.”
“I absolutely love the couture fashion by Fighting Eel and purchased a number of the brand’s lifestyle items expressing a refined local style,” says Sherrie Holi, President and Chief Operating Officer at Big Island Candies. “I am honored that they agreed to be our next collaborative partner and especially love that Fighting Eel is a women-run company owned and operated in Hawai‘i.” The candy box contains an assortment of the company’s signature chocolate-dipped macadamia treats like brownies, toffees, and shortbreads.
Though supplies are limited, the collection allows customers to enjoy both Hawaii-made sweets and Fighting Eel’s trendy aesthetic. www.bigislandcandies.com
