It wasn't too sweet and had great flavour. To top it off, I realized the day before my sons party that i had put in the pickup date as the day after i needed it - i contacted the owner, and she took on the challenge without hesitation despite it being last minute. When we picked up, she was very kind and easy to talk to - definitely recommend!

Bought a lava cake and it was good...4 out of 5, pumpkin cupcakes were okay. It was small in size like a muffin. Best part was the cream cheese on the top. If these are sold as "cupcakes" in my opinion, they need to be much larger in size and not a small muffin. Love supporting local, and they're right in our Mehana neighborhood on Kakala St across from the recreation center. Much mahalo for blessing us with an extra muffin.

Here you'll find little sweet bites of heaven!!…read more Kotonaru is a gem I found at the Ono Grindz & Mākeke at Kapolei Commons it's held every Sundays from 9am-1pm on the huge grassy lawn near the Theaters. These guys create beautiful intricate works of art almost too pretty to eat. Today they had little tartlets and mini cheesecake bites. Also mini dessert parfaits gah so super cute!!! I got the mini tarts which are $12 for 8 pieces - Fruit Cream Cheese - Cookies and Cream - Coffee - Ube - Cookie Butter - Strawberry Cream - Blueberry Cream - Chocolate I can't wait to try them though they are delicate and they recommend it's not to be refrigerated in 60 to 90 minutes. So I took a break in my air conditioned car to give them more time lol! Follow the on Instagram @kotonarullc as they do have many other flavors and other pop ups as well...life is certainly sweeter!!! Thank you!!

Stopped by 85°C Bakery Cafe in Kapolei and grabbed a large iced sea salt coffee with 25% sweetness…read more It was solid--smooth coffee flavor, not too sweet, and I really appreciate that you can customize the sweetness level. Great price for good quality coffee. The bakery section looked amazing with tons of options, but we didn't get to try any this time.

Highlights: - Customizable drink sweetness - Good value and quality - Lots of baked goods to choose from - Easy parking and convenient spot Looking forward to trying more next time!

Authentic Hawaiian shaved ice was high on my list of items to try when I went to Hawaii for the…read morefirst time a few months ago. My son and I had a day of excursions and thought shaved ice would be the perfect way to end our day. I Yelped shaved ice spots near our last stop and landed on Island Shave Ice and Creamery. We were able to park with no issue. There's ample seating indoor and a couple of benches outside. After placing our order, we decided to sit outside on one of the benches. There were so many different flavors, and all the combinations sounded delicious. My son and I decided to order from the "Local Favorites" menu. We went with one Sandy Beach and I don't remember the other one, but it had cotton candy and it was my favorite between the two. It was incredible. I'm so glad we found Island Shave Ice and Creamery, it exceeded all of my expectations!

I was really looking forward to having shaved ice in Hawaii, but this was not it…read more I got the sunset (strawberry, banana, and pineapple) with mochi balls. It was overly syrupy and icy. You would think the mochi balls would be a good balance to the sweetness of the syrup, but it just tasted extra bland. And even though the weather was in the 70s, the whole thing melted so quickly and was just not enjoyable to me. Perhaps it would have been better if I added dole whip in it to give it more of a creamier texture!

SERVICE: Customer service was stellar. They were very attentive and accommodating. PHYSICAL SPACE: Restaurant was clean and even had fly fans on each table. Staff is attentive to wiping tables down. HEADS UP: It is very popular, so there was a long line and parking is a sport, but it was worth it!!

It's been a minute since I was able to throw Black Sheep Cream Co. a review…read more We frequent Ko'olina quite a bit, whether to bring my daughters to the beach or to stop by Monkeypod for dinner. This time around, we found ourselves bringing a family member to dinner and were craving ice cream after dinner. Fortunately, Black Sheep Cream Co. was there. Right off the bat, I want to express my gratitude to the owner for keeping the prices the same since my last review in 2022. The flavors, taste, and venue is comfortable to enjoy your dessert right in front of the business. There is plenty of chairs and umbrella shade. This is locally-owned and worth the try, especially if you're visiting. There recommended flavor is their Black Sesame flavor. I also really appreciate their Matcha flavor.
