Sugar Pie Puns

I'd completely lost my appletart

The decision was a piece of cake.

Hi punsters! My wife and I would like to request your help for naming the following party food items with Hawaiian puns. We are hosting a Hawaiian themed baby shower for my wife. The plan is to put tags next to each item.

Ex: Poke bowls: Gotta catch ’em all

Cheese Dips

Salsa Dips

Tortilla Chips

Chocolate Covered Strawberries

Nutter Butter Cookies

Samosas

Cake Pops (shaped like coconuts)

Cup Cakes

Coconut Trifles

Edible Arrangements (Cut up fruit)

Thank you!

Years ago I used to use a LexisNexis database of companies that would give corporate information like name, address, and general business description. While most of them were pretty bland, there were a bunch of them with some really cheesy puns, and over a few years I built quite a collection.

Today I share with you "NEXIS IS RIDICULOUS.txt":

• Bucyrus International caters to those who mine their own business.

• Saint-Gobain Ceramics & Plastics deals powders and crystal, but there's no need to call the cops.
• Pamida Stores Operating Company offers more small-town values than a bandwagon of Republicans on the campaign trail.

• Who is the Fresh Prince of Sullair?

I work in a grocery store while in college, specifically the bakery portion of it. On of my coworkers was looking at the pies and said, " That pie is not made with sugar, that's sacrilegious!", to which I replied, "No that's sucrose". Groans for days.

Christmas was at Mom's house this year. She has to buy at least 10 lbs of sugar to make all the treats and candy that everyone wants. She has all of the candy and pies and things on the counter in the dinning room. As family members arrived and everyone made their way passed the dinning room my niece(14) came in.

Her: You've been standing in here for a while.

Me: Yup, it's the sweetest spot in the house.
