SWEETS: Green Apple & Strawberry Banana The mixture of green and white bears are way bigger in size than the Haribo-brand version. The green apple flavor was very distinctive and spot-on but the strawberry banana was more of a creamy strawberry. Awesome Blossoms These are multi-colored, fruit-shaped gummies that give off a strong fruity smell upon opening the pouch. The flavors were very bold and tasted like real fruit juice. Amazing! Strawberry Red in color and yup, tasted like a strawberry. A favorite among the office and the first bag to go out. OVERALL: I like a little sweet carnauba wax every now and then, LOL.

(+) Azuki bean mochi…read more Maui specialty chocolates is a family owned business that sells high quality chocolates, candies and mochi. They have plenty of selection in terms of chocolate. The reason we visit here is for their mochi. The mochi is some of the best I've ever had, and I have been to Japan to try theirs. The flavors are chocolate, peanut butter chocolate, and azuki bean (red bean). I'm not a peanut butter fan nor chocolate, so I just ate the red bean mochi. The mochi is so soft and the red bean filling is not too sweet and filled with a good amount of it. Since it is a family business, the hours are fluctuate constantly. There was a point where every time we visited, it was closed during our stay for 4 years straight. Check their website to confirm hours.

Aloha fellow Tourists! My cousin was born and raised on Maui. He sent treats from Obachan's to…read moreCalifornia. This is a stop you have to make while visiting. If you don't make it, then order from their online shop. You won't regret it! If you are Latino, I guarantee your favorite thing in all their snacks will be the "Spicy Whole Seed" and "Sweet & Sour Whole Seed" if you're anything like my Mexican hubby. We could not stop eating them! The LiHing Mango and dried Papaya were also very delicious and had the perfect combination of flavor and texture. The LiHing gummy Peach rings are unexplainable. It tastes like no peach rings you have ever experienced. I don't even like peach rings like that. Strangely, it feels like love was literally put in the bag. It's not listed as an ingredient, but it's totally in there. Maybe it's Aloha, maybe it's just quality ingredients. Whatever it is, I hope the recipe never changes, because everyone should experience it! If you're a "foodie" this is a must stop shop on the island.

Fun fact: The first time I have ever tried bubble tea/boba is at camellia seeds…read more This place is the OG for honeydew bubble tea and any sweet treat you'd like. Want a snack? Grab some li hing mui crack seed or chocolate covered gummy bears. Want an icee float? They have that too! If you were born & raised on Maui, I can guarantee that you have some fond memories at this place. The store has stayed the same ever since I was a kid (and the nostalgia is REAL!) Highly recommend getting the chocolate covered gummy bears, li hing mui gummy anything, honey dew bubble tea, and icee floats. Camellia Seeds is a true gem on Maui and it is one of a kind.

My husband and I were in a rush on our way to dinner at Lahaina Fish Co. when we walked by the…read morefudge company and the employees were handing out samples. They were so nice and polite that after dinner we returned and bought a "Maui" box full of fudge.

The store is very, very tiny. The woman who helped us was very nice and we sampled two types of…read morefudge. Maui Mud Pie and Chocolate. Bother we're delicious. They had a promo sign stating "Buy four at $7 each and the fifth one is free-$38.00" so for $$39.60, we got 5 types. They taste nothing like what we sampled. Every single one is awful. The coconut taste like mint, the Maui mud pie is stale, the chocolate taste like perfume...ugh!!! There is a number on the bottom...is this the expiration date? Was is last year? Is it when it was made? Buyer beware! We opened it to slice a sample of each for dessert with a group. Everyone agrees something is "off" with this award winning fudge. Feeling very disappointed and irritated that I'm out $39.60. I should've just put two $20s into the trash, cuz that's where this is going.

When we showed up the lights were half on. I went in since the door was unlocked and the guy in the shop said they were closed. When I asked him about the time he said "they were closed early tonight," which to me just meant he didn't want to work anymore. So we went and spent our money at a different ice cream shop.

One of the things I really loved--something that truly made me feel like a kid in a candy store--was their in-shop camera. You can choose between taking photos, videos, or boomerangs, and then text or email them to yourself. It added such a fun and unique twist to the experience--something I've never seen in a shop before. Definitely an extra treat if you ask me! Here's what we ordered and how we rated it: Mint Chocolate Chip & Coffee Ice Cream - 5/5 This combination was a pleasant surprise! Creamy, smooth, and perfectly balanced, the flavors blended together in a way I didn't know I needed until that very first bite. If you were have a sweet tooth...please be sure to stop by, as I believe you will not regret it!

You can really taste the quality. One little detail I appreciate is that they dice the onions small, rather than the big chunks you get at a lot of other places. It makes for a better bite every time. They have a great variety too, with everything from spicy ahi to tako and shoyu options. Are they on the higher priced side? Yes. Is it worth it? Also yes. This is a nice "treat yourself" kind of poke, and we will absolutely be back. If you are looking for quality fresh poke on Maui, give Kaohu Store a try.
