Stopped here one night for dessert. We were looking for somewhere and this place popped up. We went maybe 15 minutes before closing and the line was super long! We decided to wait and when it got to 8pm there was one person behind me so the worker told him that he was the last one. We ordered the shareable strawberry with boba, rainbow jelly and peaches. It was a little sweet for me but liked the toppings. There's a lot of tables nearby to sit on and enjoy. read more

My girlfriend and I were exploring Kihei on a warm Maui afternoon and stopped into the South Maui Gardens food truck park. Da Sweet Spot by Bling Bing caught our eye right away with its colorful setup and shady garden seating... the perfect spot to cool off. We'd never had real BàoBīng before, and this is apparently the only place on the whole island serving the authentic Chinese/Taiwanese version. It's a nice twist on the usual Hawaiian shave ice: the snow is shaved super fine and light, almost like actual snow, and they flavor it throughout with creamy condensed milk instead of just pouring syrup on top. I built my own with the ube condensed milk (that subtle nutty purple yam flavor is fantastic), fresh strawberries, pineapple, and mochi. The ice melted perfectly, the ube gave it a rich but not-too-sweet creaminess, and the chewy mochi with the juicy fruit was spot on. My girlfriend went for one of their Hapas... the fun half shave ice, half soft serve fusion with pineapple Dole whip vibes and tropical toppings... and she couldn't stop smiling. Everything tasted fresh, generous, and thoughtfully put together. The whole experience felt original and special without trying too hard. Friendly service, quality ingredients, and a relaxed garden vibe made it one of our favorite stops on the trip. We'll definitely swing by again next time we're in south Maui. Highly recommend if you're looking for something different and delicious! read more

Another day, another baobing! So delicous and friendly service as always. PS I hope you keep the rectangle container for the individual size. Thank you!! read more

Da Sweet Spot - Baobing - Shaved Snow Near Me - Kihei, Hawaii

Da Sweet Spot is truly a magical place, specializing in Taiwanese Shaved Ice and other delightful desserts like Bao Bings and Hapas. They are located in the back among several other food trucks at South Maui Gardens, it's the perfect spot to treat yourself. I had the rainbow shaved ice, but swapped out the pineapple flavor for my personal preference. For just an extra dollar, you can add vanilla ice cream -- and of course, I couldn't resist. I never imagined that combo would work so well together, but it turned out to be the perfect sweet treat while enjoying my luau. They also offer catering for events, so if you're planning a party, I highly recommend checking them out! read more

We visited Da Sweet Spot a couple times while on vacation. The shave ice w/ condensed milk and flavorings was very satisfying. Although a bit pricey, two can share a single serving. We were a bit disappointed with the Dole whip ice cream. The serving size was a bit deceiving as there was a huge empty space in the middle of it (see photo). The service was fast and friendly. read more

Da Sweet Spot - Shaved ice - Shaved Snow Near Me - Kihei, Hawaii

Looking for a different type of shave ice experience? Look no further than da sweet spot! This place is a fusion between Hawaiian shave ice and bing su! They have a delicious ube condensed milk topping as well as various fresh cut up fruits like strawberries and blueberries! We also got rice balls which were chewy and highly recommend if you like that texture! And mochi which was soft and plentiful! I wished the condensed milk sunk into the ice more and it wasn't for lack of trying but it's just thicker than the normal syrup. So the middle of my shave ice didn't have any of that delicious ube flavor. The ice wasn't as soft either as some other places I've been to in the past and I'm not sure if it was weather related (like humidity?) or something else. Anyways still worth trying! And I definitely enjoyed trying something new! Also it was super conveniently located in south Maui gardens food truck park, and we ate this BEFORE grabbing dinner! What a vacation! Haha read more

Having been spoiled by Local Boyz in the past (sadly gone from the island), I was excited to try a new shave ice place. It was tasty but really, really sweet and too big for one person (my fault I suppose, but I wanted to try the special Passion dish). The mochi was really powdery, and I felt that was distracting from the dish. The popping boba were tasty, but I would've preferred some kind of jelly. Not many choices for the ice cream--got vanilla and it was meh. Overall, it has a lot of potential but wasn't my favorite. Maybe would have enjoyed a different item more. Probably worth trying once. The garden was very nice and the staff were very friendly. Overall, interesting and different, but enjoyment-wise it was pretty average for shave ice. read more

I think of the Taiwanese shave ice from Bling Bing at least a few times a week. Daydreaming of the next time I can stop by, what is their special flavor of the day, and even contemplating if I should have their shave ice for dinner. It is that good. You pick your size cup, toppings (we like the lychee and sweet red beans), regular ice or flavored ribbon ice. We've had the strawberry and pineapple ribbon ice. So delicious! Add the mochi! Located in South Maui Garden near El Carrito and the port-a- potties. Lots of seating through out the grounds. read more

LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS PLACE!!! Its located inside a food truck area and this is the best bingsoo place I've ever tried. And if you've never had bingsoo (Korean shaved iced) before, you have got to try it once, totally different from other shaved ice desserts. My friends and I shared an individual size ($9.00). They dont really have flavors but rather flavor of condensed milk. We were debating about matcha condensed milk or ube condensed milk and the person helping us out helpfully suggested he was able to do half and half. Two toppings came with it and we got golden kiwi and mango jelly. The kiwis were so sweet!! I really cant get over the matcha condensed milk though! I've had matcha bingsoo at other places but it was matcha powder on top of the shaved ice. Ive never tasted something so great before and can see why the ratings are soooo good. If I lived in Maui, I would come here every week. If I could give it 6 stars I would. I love this place so much!!! read more

Interesting twist to shaved ice! Instead of natural flavors or syrup, they used condensed milk. I enjoyed the flavored condensed milk (ube flavor is what we got). We got the kid size with lychee and pineapples. Thought it was good but wished it had a bit more condensed milk because the middle of the shaved ice was flavorless. read more

I've been really looking to try more Taiwanese and other similar region desserts, and the Bao Bing at Bling Bing Maui is a must-have for those who were on a similar quest like myself. There were tons of different flavors, and pictures don't do them justice for how amazing they were, and I'm glad to see them at their new spot in the food trucks by South Maui Gardens - dessert lovers and foodies should definitely make a stop by here if you're visiting or are a local of Maui - Miguel Morales Photography read more

This place was excellent. We got dessert here after lunch and were really impressed. I like that the ice is sweetened with condensed milk rather than artificial coloring and there are plenty of topping options. We got a keiki size with ube condensed milk, ly hing powder topping and pineapple. The ice is so powdery and fine I could eat a whole bowl of their plain ice. The sides are pretty generous and they don't skimp on toppings. Service was very fast and they also sold drinks. I'll definitely be back. read more

I absolutely loved this dessert. The fruit combinations are amazing. A large is big enough for 2-3 people. I saw the amazing reviews on Yelp and Google and had to try it out. Best shaved ice I have ever have. So soft and creamy with the coconut milk and fruit combo. I craved it during my vacation and definitely would have gone back if I had more time than a week in Hawaii. If I was a local, this definitely would be a place I would regularly come to. It's refreshing - we had the mango, papaya, and lichee fruits. You can pick up to three fruits with the large, and you can add on extras for an additional small charge if you desire more. I thought the price was fair considering I had frozen yogurt with fruit 15 years ago in Hawaii and the price was about the same. The chickens in the eating area can be a bit stubborn and pesky, but the dessert itself is such a treat. I will specially go find this place again if I ever have the opportunity to go back. read more

My friend and I were grabbing some new plant babies from South Maui Gardens and needed something to cool us down. We were excited to try Bling Bing for the first time. Unfortunately, the staff working was a very unenthused young man who looked like he wanted to get back to his phone rather than answer our questions. I would have given them 5 stars had it not been for the lackluster customer service. The shave ice was delicious. We got the ube condensed milk, which was amazing. We topped that off with the lychee popping boba and pineapple. Although there was a lot of plain ice in the middle, we just had to mix it all together. The ube condensed milk was sweet enough to flavor all of the shave ice. If you're cruising in the area, I definitely recommend! read more

The problem with success! Definitely one of the best bao bing (shaved ice) place on the island, with great varieties of toppings and flavorings. Their menu also includes Hapa and soft serve. Therefore, with all this, it requires more persons to keep the up with the flow of demand. It's difficult to place a larger staff in a small mobile building, so the service is slower. Plan on a least a 30-45 minute wait when it gets to peak times. Well worth the wait though. read more

I went to Maui for a vacation and I couldn't leave without trying this place! There are a bunch of food truck in this area so you can eat whatever your heart desires.

Something refreshing for those hot Kihei days! Definitely hit the spot. It's a nice alternative from always having shave ice. This truck is located in the Kihei Food Truck Park next to Azeka's. Lots of parking and places to sit and enjoy your treats. She is open 12pm-8pm or until sold out. We came at around 230pm and she was out to lunch but we didn't wait long for her to come back. Seems like she may be a one woman show so please be patient. Be sure to follow her on instagram for more current updates. Tried her regular ice and got the special with strawberry ribbon ice. Both were light and refreshing. Out of all the toppings, my favorite would have to be the rice balls. Similar to the mochi topping, but better. Stop in and support local! read more
