We lucked out. The pops are $5 for 2 or $3 each. Locals can buy them 5 for $10. We got the ube and pina colada flavors and both were delicious! Ube is very ube. And you can't go wrong with pineapple and coconut. Maybe they can even add a little strawberry to make a lava flow - yum. A nice little after-Huli treat!

We stepped in and were greeted immediately and offered samples of several items, including the Hamakua Toffee, apple banana, furikake rice crispies and white chocolate with cacao nibs.

Great mix of products! Hawaiian made and delicious!…read more It's only been open for a few weeks so this was a cool new find. I see I get to be the first to review! Every product in Yay! Candy has a story of local history behind it that the store owners/operators are happy to share. They are very local focused and said they have a very strict policy to only carry products from Hawaiian companies. The owners said they seek out vendors where everything is made on one of the islands and ingredients are source locally when possible. Fair trade when not. So no cheep imports here. We checked a few and couldn't find anything that didn't meet this criteria. The store is ran by a super sweet couple that reminds me of my grandparents and make you feel super welcome when you come in. They have a bit of a sense of humor about their store as well it seems. They have a secret dentist discount. So all you dentist with a sweet tooth, we found your spot. Samples! They have samples available for most products. So if you're unsure you can probably try it, but be warned if you sample it you will want to buy it. Chocoholics be warned! I saw over half a dozen local grown and made "bean to bar" as they say, chocolate crafters on their shelves and each with multiple options. Farm to table tarts. And a wall of small farm macadamia nuts options, including chocolate covered varieties, and the best friggin toffee I've ever tried. Lilikoi, Li hing, coconut options in everything. Even organic cotton Candy?? My new favorite candy store! The only negative is I don't live on the island, so I have to wait for my next visit to get my next fix.

So this trip I asked him to bring us to the shop so we could pick some up to take home with us. Kollette was wonderful. We got Mac nuts, dark chocolate Mac nuts and dark chocolate coffee beans. After we left I had wished we had gotten more so my son stopped by and got us the big 5 pound bag of nuts to bring home with us also. These are all organic and the nuts are dehydrated. Incredible flavor and crunch. I highly recommend that if you are in the Kona area it is so worth the trip to stop by and purchase your products and gifts here. We didn't buy coffee there and I am now wishing we had. I was just so focused on getting the macadamia nuts. They are Wonderful people providing great quality products. Please support their local efforts.

I first discovered them at the snack bar on a golf course and liked them so much that I bought five more bags to take home as souvenirs.

Highly recommend giving them a try!

Locally sourced ingredients makes this even more desirable. We have enjoyed the Clarity, Inspiration, Balance, Love, Transformation, and their new Coco Mana. All are amazing sugar free chocolates that gently dance over your palettes. Each delivering unique flavors of the island. That the names suggest wellbeing is as brilliant as the blends of flavor. Try them and see for yourselves. If flavors are not available, know that they are each worth waiting for. Yes, they are that good. This is a small business that creates with love each of their products. It is not mass produced. And this is a good thing. It is an art that you can savor. It is also a female owned, family runned business. Embracing the Ohana island vib in incorporating the Kona families who produce the ingredients for this chocolatier's masterpieces. What is not to love? While there are multiple ways to purchase these chocolates, do stop in at their shop if you find yourself in Kona. Highly recommend.

We came across this chocolate shop by chance after wandering over from the Kona Inn Shopping…read moreVillage. Looks like they just moved in but had all their chocolate bars on display with samples. The young woman handing sales and samples was polite and enthusiastic. I tried the basic dark sample (as that's always the best way to tell if the chocolate is good as no extra flavors are masking problems). The dark chocolate was very smooth, mildly bitter, and balanced on the sweetness. The honey is pretty mild flavoring but if you're looking for less white table sugar in your dessert, it's a good alternative. The basic dark bar was $10 which seems the norm these days, so I got a bar for later. Support local business!
