    Melon cream tart in a tiny bag after being forcefully squished
    Joyful Eater M.

    This is a message for the management or owner of this bakery- if you want to sell cream tarts, figure out a better way to hold the tart. You cannot have your untrained staff shove it inside a narrowly sized bag and smash the cream and still expect to sell it. I feel bad for the young girl who clearly has no idea to do this so I sucked it up and paid $3.10 for this completely cream-smashed piece of pastry.

    Baked goods in Honolulu, Hawaii... If you shop at Don Quijote on Kaheka Street, you've probably passed this bakery since it's located at the exit door of Don Q. The free shared parking is very convenient - as are all of the food vendors along the strip. Home + Bakery has beautiful refrigerated fruit and cream cakes. The bear and piggy cakes look too cute to eat! I was drawn to the individually wrapped pastries which are great for takeout consumption. Right by the cash register was a batch of hotdogs. I tried one - hmmm - the bun is like a regular hotdog bun. Nothing really outstanding. The hotdog was average, too. It just looked fancy! The taste was alright. The next day, I went back. The super polite lady wasn't there. Instead, the younger gal seemed kind of upset because she had just finished dealing with a difficult customer before me. Sorry. I asked for a sausage pastry because I like savory. Eh - it was ok. The pastry is very airy and soft. Taste wise, it's not memorable. I went back to make sure - and got a croissant. It's not buttery nor flakey. The outer layer barely has a crispness. It's more on the light side. The size is deceiving - there are many air pockets... Haha! Maybe I should go back for a cake. Who's birthday is next? LOL!

    I love their breads and cakes here. Miss the old mocha bread. The crust layer was my fave. Please bring it back

    I've been coming here for years. Their mocha bread, cakes, castella cakes are so good! Please bring back the old mocha bread

    Fruit Cake #1 $26.98
    Ariana K.

    I have been eyeing out the cakes at this bakery for months! We shop at Don Quijote periodically and you cant miss this bakery because it is right next to the entrance. They always have the cutest cakes on display and I have always wanted to try one. So for my birthday this year we decided to order one! We ordered Fruit Cake #1 ($26.98) this is a 6" cake, which is perfect since it was for only 3 of us. When we picked up the cake, it came in this really well made box carrier, a plastic cutting knife, a cute happy birthday topper, and 3 candles! We did ask them to write my name on as well :] Because this cake was already so pretty, I only added a couple things to it to make it really personalized my birthday. So full disclosure I added my own star toothpicks and sailor moon prop. The cake came with a handful of fresh fruits on top. The flavor of the cake was not too sweet, light and moist (which is the perfect Japanese style cake in my opinion). It was filled with some light whipped cream and fruit in the middle. I think I have found my new go-to bakery for cakes. My experience here was great and the cake was just perfect. A huge MAHALO to Home + Bakery for operating during this pandemic.

    Cream bun
    Dathan C.

    These are crazy times and small business really needs our help. So, utilizing my last American Express, shop small credit, I decided to try this bakery I often walk past, but never patron. The lady there was super polite, friend, and efficient! She even picked out the best-looking apple turnover for me! They have a wide selection of baked goods, but they did run out of raisin bread, which apparently is a big draw. The seem to have more sweet than savory choices, but that might be because I went after lunch. They also have a wide variety of gorgeous looking cakes, but that's for another day, and for a post-COVID party. I picked up an apple turnover, cream bun, cranberry vanilla bun, and a custard bun for a little over $11 with tax to bring over to my parents' house. The apple turnover was incredibly flakey, but without that overpowering butter taste that off balances so many turnovers. The filing was a good amount of apples with just the right sweetness The cream bun had a light and airy cream filling, with super soft bun breading. The cranberry bun was also super soft with a slightly sweet, slightly tart cranberry flavor. The custard bun had a good amount of very smooth, and light custard with a sprinkling of almonds in, you guessed it, super soft breading. They take American Express! Parking is easy with the two large parking lots servicing the shopping center. There were never any sit-down areas in the shop before COVID, but the nearby benches have been removed, so eat in your car, or drive down to the beach park nearby and enjoy your pastries 6 feet apart from each other. 3.5 stars.

    Wanted to eat something sweet, since I was at Don Quijote Kaheka, located front entrance from store. I gave them an extra star, because everything is bake fresh every morning. The pastry's was soft and chewy. Give this place a try if you're shopping at Don Quijote Kaheka. Buy some sweets to take home. Aloha, Derek

    Honey Castella
    Kimberly J.

    Located outside Don Quijote. They offer cakes and other baked goods. There wasn't a whole lot of variety when we visited but maybe everything had not been set up yet. Cashier was friendly and quick. There is no seating here, its a grab and go type place. Picked up a Honey Castella for the little one and he enjoyed it. I wouldn't go out of my way to visit, but it was definitely a convenient bakery.

    Banana cake
    Chelsy P.

    This place was okay, they made the cakes look cute and packaged them nicely bit flavor wasn't there. Also there is some miscommunication with the worker. We asked what kind of cake it was and it seemed like she was just trying to sell the cake and make it sound better then it is. We even spoke jorean with the worker but it didn't help. We asked what was in the fruit cake and the lady said it was a strawberry shortcake so we got it. When we cut into it there was just a little other fruits inside. They also charge for candles without mentioning the charge. We asked if they had candles and she said she would just give us one since we ordered 2 cakes ( which at other baker's they give you candles for free with purchase) she gave us 2 candles and charged us for one even when we didn't need it. The banana cake was cool because it is different and unique. I've never tried a banana cake so that was fun.

    Fruit Cake
    Crystal L.

    Glad this bakery was right outside of DonQ! Finished shopping for home yakiniku celebration and didn't want to drive to another location for a birthday cake. We were debating between the Strawberry Cake with gum balls and macaroons on it, or the Fruit Cake. We went with the Fruit cake ($42) because the employee said that it was also strawberry cake in it. To our surprise, the cake contained fruits that weren't the same as the ones on top of it. The fruits in the cake were like the fruit cocktail we would get in school. Squared pears, peaches and etc. We were hoping it would have the berries or be more strawberry as she said. $42 is around other strawberry cakes from other places but the Fruit Cocktail was unusual. They also were unable to writing a name on the cake, due to having 1 employee there.

    Ric's micro review- first impressions: Just tried their apple pie pastry- pretty good! Their in a soft opening and will have their grand opening on 8/1/17. They are occupying the space that used to house KFC at next to the front entrance. Very convenient! Similar to the many other Asian bakeries in Honolulu, they have a limited selection right now. It's a small footprint area but they have the tongs/tray style of item selection for many items. The cakes look quite appealing and I bet they taste as good as they look. Quite a few different decorating styles, all quite pleasing to the eyes. A welcome addition to the pastry scene. Good Luck Home Plus Bakery.

    Green tea cake
    Chris K.

    New bakery in front of Don Quijote. They have a wide range of cakes and breads. There are full cakes as well as individual serving sizes. I had the green tea slice which was really good! It had a handful of fruits on top: grapes, black berries, and half a strawberry. The cake was light and moist and they had some jam in between the layers as well as whip cream. It had a nice green tea taste and a fruity taste that I wasn't able to identify. My friend got the sweet potato cake which I had a bite of and that too was nice a light with a bit of sweet potato taste to it. It made me wonder if the doggy cakes that are made out of sweet potato tastes similar with a lower quality. They had raisin bread loaf and an assortment of other baked goods like ham and cheese pastry.

    You can't help but notice the line…read more Staying directly across the street from the bakery gave me a front-row seat to its daily ritual. Every morning, without fail, people gathered outside waiting patiently for pastries. No flashy signs. No gimmicks. Just quiet consistency. That alone intrigued me. By the second day, my mind was made up. I'm an early riser, so the plan was simple: go on my usual morning run and arrive before the rush. Japanese culture and craftsmanship have long fascinated me. Through close friends with family roots tracing back to Japan, I've developed a deep appreciation for the culture -- the discipline, the rituals, the precision, and the respect for process. There's a beauty in the intentional pace at which things are done. Nothing rushed. Nothing careless. This bakery embodied that philosophy perfectly. The space itself was small, modest, and aromatic. No overdesigned interiors. No influencer bait. Just the comforting smell of fresh bread and butter hanging in the air. Some bakeries hide behind elaborate architecture and presentation, but this place understood something more important: when the product is exceptional, the product becomes the attraction. The pastries ranged from playful and charming to elegant and refined. The Salt & Butter bread was an instant staple -- savory, warm, and impossibly light. The dough practically dissolved like air. Thankfully, nothing felt overly heavy, because I completely lost control of my ordering strategy. The Kobo Kuma -- a soft bear-shaped bun filled with homemade vanilla bean custard -- was perfection. Equal parts cute and comforting. The Cinnamon Roll was solid, but the Haupia pastry completely stole the show. For those unfamiliar, Haupia is a traditional Hawaiian coconut pudding found throughout Polynesia. The flavor here was subtle yet lingering, delicate without disappearing. The kind of flavor that quietly stays with you long after the last bite. Then came the Blueberry Danish -- beautiful, buttery, and perfectly sweet. I didn't even make it to the savory options this time, which honestly just gives me another reason to return. And I absolutely will -- whether back here in Hawaii or perhaps at one of their mainland locations in Los Angeles. Some places become popular because of hype. Others because of quality. This bakery earned its line.

As I came up to the shopping center shortly after 7am, I noticed a long line, and thought to myself, this couldn't possibly be for Kona Coffee Purveyors, right?? But unfortunately for me, it was. I didn't see how long the line extended, but I knew I didn't have time to wait, so I ended up getting coffee elsewhere. A few hours later, around 11:30am, I was back in the Waikiki area and happened to be walking past Kona Coffee Purveyors. I saw there were maybe a handful of people in line, so I decided to drop in. I ended up getting a latte, black sesame kouign amann, and pandan coconut tapioca pudding. My favorite was the pandan coconut tapioca pudding which was delightfully light and not too sweet dessert. Black sesame kouign amann: A twist on the classic kouign amann. A beautiful blend of crunchy and soft. The black sesame filling adds a nice flavor. Pandan coconut tapioca pudding: Pandan pudding, coconut tapioca, topped with coconut macaroon. This seems to be a seasonal/limited item.

Since it was their anniversary on Sunday, also got their celebratory funfetti cupcake which also like their baked goods did not disappoint. The croissant base of many of their pastries is flaky. When fresh it crunches with every bite that you take. This time around we had the cinnamon roll, mango danish which had a chocolate mochi filling, and their char siu bun. It's such a neat take to have char siu in a croissant. We are used to having it in the doughy bao bread but in a croissant, savory with a crunchy outside tastes so much better. I love sweet but this one wasn't overly sweet, who would have thought that mango and chocolate pair so well together. It's the summer months, fresh mango on pastries. It was the perfect ripeness. For the cinnamon roll, you honestly cannot forget get their cinnamon roll...It's flaky and again the frosting is not overly sweet. Can't wait to get another box of their pastries again soon.

    I met up with my friend at the Local Heneral for a quick snack. I was pleasantly surprised by the…read moreselection of food and pastries. It's a cute little shop with benches facing the windows to people watch. It was hard to pick one item, but I ended up trying the Char Siu Croissant. I loved the flavors combining the sweet glaze and the savory meat. It's now one of my go-to weekend treats!

    I love Pipeline Bakeshops Malasadas! I have been to several Malasada places in Hawaii but | love…read morethere's the best for the following reasons: 1. the size of the malasadas: some restaurants tend to make their Malasadas smaller and when places do this it ruins the overall texture and quality of it. The bigger the malasadas size the more airy and fluffy and more bread layers that will be inside. 2. their malasadas always taste fresh and the same quality each time. 3. their malasadas don't feel oily or heavy at all Overall I would highly recommend this place for their Malasadas! I'm so happy to have found them. I can back multiple times on my trip. They also have other desserts too that I have yet to try. They have ice cream, cakes, and other desserts Also tip: if you are ordering a malasada also order a coffee or a matcha drink to go with it. The cinnamon sugar from the malasada just matches so perfectly with a drink this restaurant is also a nice place for walking! There's lot of stores and restaurants to walk around! I'm trying to remember but I think there was a book off that was not too far from here! If you either drive or maybe walk. Service: staff was super helpful and friendly while I was there. I was having an issue with my online order because my phone was being glitchy and they were so nice in helping :) Also wanted to note their branding is so cute!! They even sell merch items too

    Everyone knows to go to Leonard's for freshly made malasadas, and the constant crowds there attest…read moreto their quality and variety (review: https://yelp.to/jaduiZfQRq). However, there are many alternative malasada purveyors throughout Honolulu, so I depended on local vloggers to find the best ones. This one popped up often on YouTube, and as luck would have it, we were dining at The Pig & The Lady on the next block. How calorifically convenient. We took the opportunity to stop by for a pre-dinner snack since they closed at 6PM. It's a cute shop with multiple sweets including quite a selection of housemade ice cream and delectable mouthfuls called Cake Bombs (Photo 10). We decided we would be good and ordered one unfilled Malasada each. Dusted with various sugar flavors, they were just $2.65 a piece. I went for the Coffee, while Jamie chose the daily special, Cinnamon (Photo 6). They were soft and tasty, quite comparable to Leonard's albeit a tad smaller. That wasn't necessarily a bad thing since we had dinner ahead of us. However, we let temptation get the best of us and shared a $5.50 slice of the Ube Haupia Mac Nut Bar, a yummy combination of sweet potato and ube topped with haupia (coconut milk pudding) on a macadamia nut crust (Photo 9). Truth be told, it stole the show from the malasadas. FOOD - 4 stars... the malasadas were good, but that ube dessert was next level AMBIANCE - 4 stars...really a takeout operation with a lot of temptations SERVICE - 4 stars...very calm and orderly TOTAL - 4 stars...yet another spot for sweet Hawaiian decadence RELATED - Exploring Hawaii?

I'm happy to see a local business thriving but I hope they can improve their customer flow. The baked goods looked as inviting as always but they seemed a day-old or something. The butter horn was hard and not flaky as I've come to expect and the chocolate of the Boston Creme donut wasn't creamy. They may wish to consider: 1, Clearly delineating the line for the restaurant from the bakery. It was super busy for both so there was a lot of confusion. 2. Perhaps placing the number machine for the bakery closer to the door? Tourists aren't familiar with the system so it leads to some unnecessary dissatisfaction. 3. The staff had to leave the counter to get coffee - hot or iced. The condiments for the coffee were on the showcase so people had to be in everyone's way to get their sugar and cream. In fact, if you were standing near the door you had to go through people waiting in line back into the establishment to get those items. But, with all this, the two ladies at the counter were remarkably composed and helpful.
