I was recently enjoying some tasty King's Hawaiian Bread. I noticed their font for their logo and would like find a font with a similar look. I ran their logo through What The Font and it returned Kuenstler 480 Black as a possible match. This is close it is lacking the "swooshes" that you see in the N and H. (I do not know the technical term.)

Does anyone know what font is used in their logo or a close match?

For those not familiar with their logo here is a copy:





Here's those characters in Kuenstler 480 Black (preview generated by Fontzone) for comparison. It's similar, but not a clean match:

Aloha, that is a great question and I love our font too! I think what others have shared about Garamond is a close match but the KING'S HAWAIIAN logo is actually a custom font so there isn't really an exact match, just something close. You might be able to find another font that has a similar for just the N and the H. Mahalo for the support and have a nice week! If you have more questions, feel free to reach out to us at khcares@kingshawaiian.com.

WhatTheFont picked it as ITC Garamond Bold, which has that slightly rounded quality.

Except for the "swooshes", it looks a lot like some Garamond variant, such as Garamond Serial or TS Garamond. Here's a sample of Garamond Serial Xbold for comparison:



I suspect that many of the details that do differ, such as the curved bar in the A, the missing serif on the K and the flourishes on the N and the H, are likely to be custom tweaks made by the logo designer.
