There are more trip locations besides Hawaii, you know...
The doughnut shop didn't go through any licensing deals or anything to have access to the official layout image, but then again, they probably could have just asked. At least they didn't make up their own layout like the giant Eli's cheesecake from Chicago many years ago.
