We just hired Kona Sweets. Their cakes are beautiful and their flavors are fantastic [and local inspired]. Lilikoi and coconut is amazing.

Really good gelato - huge servings that were a little messy to eat. Lovely kids (keiki) play area. Mahalo, Gypsea Gelato!

My now-husband and I ordered our wedding cake from Kona Sweets, and Janel did a lovely job. We chose the vanilla cake with lilikoi frosting, and it was absolutely delectable. Janel decorated the cake with orchids and we added our own toppers after she delivered the cake to our venue for a morning wedding. The cake was honestly one of the best I've ever had; I'd highly recommend going with Kona Sweets if you need a cake. The lilikoi filling was incredible. More...

The ice cream here is incredibly good! If you have kids I think it would be a paradise, because they have all kinds of games inside and out for all ages. If you're an adult don't worry, it's not crazy here, just really chill and accommodating. I'd like to recommend a flavor but they're all amazing! More...

My favorite Gelato shop on the Big Island. Mint chip in a waffle cone was amazing. Great stop on a warm summer day. Great selection of small batch gelato and pastries. Staff here was friendly and helpful. I love how they took an old gas station and turned it into this beautiful shop. More...

I recently ordered a two-tiered (6" base, 4" second tier), red velvet cake with buttercream and cream cheese frostings. My client wanted an elegant, yet simple (in appearance only) looking cake. Kona Sweets gave us exactly what we wanted. It was beautiful craftsmanship. My clients were thrilled. They enjoyed it. I'll definitely work with Kona Sweets in the future. Thanks Again!!! More...

Awesome gelato! The girls who were working the day we went were...passionate, I think, about gelato and were very excited to share their gelato with us, making sure we got to try a small sample of any and all flavors we were interested in. The gelato was fantastic and the set up for sitting was like sitting in someone’s home. Very welcoming environment. Highly recommend! More...

Always good, fresh, creamy. Just like in Italy gelato! Get two varieties in each cup so you can share all these heavenly flavors. I always include coconut gelato. The chocolate is a must, as well as the mango our lilikoi. Oh dear, just thinking about these makes me want another ASAP. Best cold desserts in Kona area!!!!! More...

First time here, sister in law told me about them. Have to say very tasting gelato. Nice atmosphere, nice decor. Only down side which I was bummed about, asked for my gelato togo and they said it was gonna cost . 25 cents more and have me an extra cup which they turned my other cup upside down. Would be nice if they invested in a cover for their keki size cups. Only negative comment I have. More...

Janel was amazing to work with! I worked with her all the way from Nebraska to have a cake delivered for a special birthday for a friend visiting the island. Everything worked seamlessly and she was as prompt as a 4 hour time difference would allow! Thanks for making my friend’s birthday extra special! More...

This is my second time going to this little shoppe. I honestly do not know why I dont go more often. They have a keiki cup (perfect for my child, as well as me) so they aren't too small. Which is awesome. I feel like it is totally worth it, the size and the price. The price was seriously perfect for the size. Plus, you get a mound of gelato. The flavors of the gelato are fun and creative. Even a sorbet! The service. Of course, I didnt catch the names, gelato right in front of me. They did such an EXCEPTIONAL job though. They let us taste every flavor we wanted without making us feel bad, and they actually explained the flavor. They encouraged us to try. They also have assortment of desserts. We finally chose our flavors, went outside to eat, and my daughter drops her gelato. Smile to frown faster than my blink. The ladies saw it, one of them instantly says "Dont cry, it's ok, we will just get you another one!" I go to pay for the replacement, but they said on the house!! The energy of this place was so epic. It really makes me want to keep coming back. I recommend this place to everyone. I had an amazing experience and I will return. Looking forward to the new shoppe! More...
