I'm late in leaving this review but I feel it is very much needed as we were extremely happy with our cake from Ariele! We took our family vacation early November and in doing so we planned to do an intimate gender cake reveal too. Finding a notable and highly rated baker in Maui was at the top of my list. Getting in touch with Ariele was a breeze. Her communication from start to finish was excellent. And her options of cake and icing flavors were never ending, wow! You have classic flavors like strawberry, chocolate, cookies & cream, etc. to tropical flavors which is what we gravitated towards. We got a simple white 3 layered 4" guava cake filled with lilikoi buttercream finished in vanilla buttercream. I provided a reference picture and the little details I wanted on the cake. Everything we asked is what we received with the exception of having pink & blue sprinkles along the base piping but I'm not going to ding Ariele for that because it still looked so cute!!! Cake was delicious. Highly recommend! P.S. we're having twin boys! read more

Celebrating an event (or, just hankering for an incredible sweet treat) while in Maui? We just celebrated my hubby's birthday this past weekend with an incredible key lime pie from Ariele's Kitchen. Ariele was very responsive to my request, so gracious and also happens to be an extremely talented baker (I'm a novice baker myself and really appreciate quality ingredients and beautiful presentation). Thanks, Ariele for making such a wonderful birthday dessert for our family! https://www.arieleskitchen.com read more

From our initial communication to delivery, everything was seamless. We ordered the 9" chocolate passion fruit birthday cake which when completed was more like 11" in diameter and 8-9" tall. Incredibly moist and mellow chocolate. Passion fruit cream layer was subtle so neither flavor overpowered the other. Gorgeous ! We'd definitely order again! read more

Super glad we found Ariele's Kitchen. We were vacationing in Maui as part of a family birthday celebration, and the cake Ariele baked was the perfect ending to our trip. Ordering is a breeze. Just submit the request form from her website and she gets back to you quickly. All follow-up messages were answered promptly as well, and the final product was exactly what we requested. Price is very reasonable and, most importantly, the cake was delicious. We got the chocolate flavor with vanilla buttercream, and Ariele decorated the cake beautifully with some orchids and perfect piping. Pickup is at a house in Napili, so it's really convenient if you're staying in the area or in nearby Kaanapali. read more

Ariele's Kitchen has my highest recommendation. We visit Maui each year to celebrate family. Our friends recommended Ariel's for a birthday. We ordered several dozen cupcakes and several dozen cookies. We had the following cupcakes: red velvet, funfetti, carrot cake cream cheese, oreo vanilla, and likikoi coconut. Amazing - our favorite was the carrot cake cream cheese because the icing was outstanding. Kids favorite was Oreo vanilla. Cookies - chocolate chip was the favorite. The kids finished the cookies in one day! Mahalo for making our family celebration special. We plan to order again! read more

Ariele is my go to for all things custom & delicious! I've ordered 3 custom birthday cakes from her over the last few years and all have exceeded expectations. Ordering from her is so quick and easy and she's so responsive and helpful. The cakes are meticulously designed, and are always so moist & delicious. She also does holiday boxes throughout the year. I've ordered her Mother's Day one and valentines one. Both were phenomenal. Loaded with macaroons, a variety of cookies and chocolate covered strawberries- for an extremely reasonable price, you can't go wrong! She's able to customize for dietary restrictions too, and crafted the most amazing vegan cake with fairly short notice. She isn't all sweet though. Her savory pot pies, tamales, baklava and other weekly specials are all on point. If I could give her 10 stars I would. read more

Her frosting is too hard :(. Her design is nice as I requested and it made my day. It's too sweet, frosting is too hard that I can't even bite well. I wish it wasnt like this and was able to eat. I tried to eat it without frosting but it was too sweet. read more

My daughter was having a intimate wedding in Maui & decided at the last minute to have a wedding cake. Being from Oregon I searched online for a bakery. I'm SO glad I found Ariele's Kitchen! My daughter let her know what she wanted (simple & white flowers) but left the creativity to the baker. The cake was so beautiful & tasted heavenly! It was vanilla cake filled with Lilikoi with white orchids as decoration. She makes a variety of baked goods & weekly savory meals (I haven't tried but look wonderful). Anyone who is in the Lahaina area should definitely try this baker. read more

Had a wonderful long distance experience in working with Ariele's Kitchen to provide that special BD cake for my husband's 80 year young birthday celebration. Regardless of the hectic holidays and last minute request, Ariele's Kitchen came thru to create an amazing cake for the occasion. All those who saw it (and those who consumed it!) at the restaurant were in awe of the wonderful creation. It tasted as good as it looked, absolutely yummy! A big added plus was that restaurant delivery was available and did not have to worry about those logistics. Would definitely recommend Ariele's Kitchen if you ever have a need for that special cake to put an exclamation point on your special occasion. read more

We got married in Maui and needed a small cake for cake-cutting. I sent a couple of inspiration photos, and what Ariele delivered was exactly what I'd had in mind. The cake was also delicious--my only regret is we didn't get to eat more of it since there was so much going on! Besides the cake, we also ordered ube crinkle cookies as late-night takeaway for the guests. Everyone was raving about how delicious they were. We look forward to eating more of her amazing baked goods the next time we're in Maui! read more

I was so excited to find someone who could make the Queen Emma...a combination of guava, lilikoi and coconut. Sadly this guava had a bubblegum flavor and the lilikoi tasted more like lemon. The coconut frosting was overpowering. Beautifully decorated and wonderful communication, also easy to pay and pickup, but not the flavors promised. Would not order again. read more

I was planning a baby shower for my daughter and son-in-law, who live in Lahaina, Maui. This was tricky since I live in Los Angeles. I received a strong recommendation to use Ariele for the cake, since she makes most custom cakes in the area. After reviewing her website, I also found she prepares wonderful foods for family meals and larger groups. This was perfect, since I needed the lunch catered. The numerous reviews on her cakes speak for themselves; beautiful and delicious. Her selection of prepared foods was also outstanding; everyone enjoyed the selection, and she was very flexible! Ariele is a lovely lady; very responsive and easy to work with. Highly recommend her! read more

It is surprisingly difficult to find a bakery that makes European-style cakes on the west coast of Maui, and when we traveled to Lahaina for my boyfriend's 30th, I knew I had to find someone that makes them!! I scoured the internet to no avail until I was eventually referred to Ariele---for that I am so grateful!! Ariele was super responsive, completely open to any type of customization, and arranging pickup was easy. The result was the most beautiful chocolate coconut cake that my boyfriend said was the best cake he's ever had!! Highly recommend! read more
