Sweet Paradise Maui was such a wonderful experience! The chocolates were amazing, but what stood out most to me was the kindness and care of the staff. At one point, my child was touching some delicate items, and before I even noticed, a staff member gently and politely reminded her to be careful. I was actually grateful for the correction because I could've been held responsible for the demages done. It truly takes a village to help raise children, and I appreciated how she handled the situation with patience and kindness rather than frustration. Mahalo to this wonderful lady working her. It's refreshing to visit a business where people genuinely care about both their products and their customers. Thank you for the delicious treats and for showing such grace and understanding. We will definitely be back! read more

Craft chocolates- these are going to set you back but they are great- the flavors are delicate but still flavorful- nice chocolate snap and beautiful designs. The shop is small but full of chocolates- prepackaged, bagged, boxed. We made our own mix. These are not a mall style chocolate shop. Staff was nice, we were the only ones in at that time- she was patient and helped answer any questions we had. read more

Lovely little treasure of sweetness. Several different vegan chocolate options. I tried the bottom right chocolate. I'm simultaneously sad I didn't purchase more and thankful I didn't purchase more. I would have struggled to keep myself from eating everything. It was amazing. The woman who helped us was kind, humorous, and knowledgeable. A true Maui find! read more

Sweet Paradise Maui - Vegan chocolate! - Desserts Near Me - Wailea, Hawaii

Amazing chocolates and it was tough to decide. We got the sampler of 6 chocolates. My favorite was the flower shaped one, not the essence of rose but that was good too. The other one and the butterfly one was really yummy. If you're having a tough time figuring it out that's the point. You pick your chocolates based on a description and how pretty they look and hope for the best. But wow. They were so good. read more

This is a great stop for specialty chocolates! Unique flavors of handmade chocolates and fudge. The lady working was very sweet and pointed out treats that were throughout the store. They even sell paintings from a local artist at a very decent price. Perfect for take home gifts as well. Parking is a shared lot with other businesses in a strip mall. Is it worth the drive?...yes read more

I was fortunate enough to have been sent a selection of chocolates from this establishment and they were superb! Beautiful to look at and certainly as delicious as they appeared. They were sent from Maui to Cape Cod so careful packaging was key and they arrived packed with a chilly pad to keep them beautiful. Well done Sweet Paradise! read more

The sweetest chocolate shop in the Wailea Gateway area. We stumbled across this place while killing time for seats at a restaurant nearby. The uncle was the sweetest and very patient with my 2 littles. They were so amazed with all of the different chocolate flavors and turtle (honu) shaped chocolates. He even recognized that we were local and gave us a Kama'aina discount. I would definitely come back here next time we are in Maui! read more

Paid by card. Sweet Paradise Chocolatier is located in a plaza and offers plaza parking. I have to go here every time I'm in the area. The chocolates are amazing and the turtles are so cute! They have such a wide variety of chocolates that it's hard to choose which ones to get. My son loves this place. This is a good place for gifts. I would recommend this place and would go back. read more

Saw this shop advertised and we made the long drive from Nāpili. Beautiful display of chocolates but the elderly woman behind the counter was not helpful and quite unfriendly. Spent $100 on a few small boxes of chocolates and the highly promoted Ube chocolate bars. Would have been nice to sample these bars, they were awful and we ended up tossing them in the trash. Won't be back, not worth the drive or money. read more

This shop has the most amazing truffles. We stopped in on a whim after a vitamin infusion and I regret not ordering so much more than we did. They had lovely fruit favors which are my favorite and such a huge selection. I had every intention of returning during our trip otherwise I'd have spent much more time (and money) there. If I'm ever back in Maui, I will absolutely be back for some more. read more

We needed a gift for someone who needs nothing. . So, chocolate might work. But, this is too exclusive for me. The size to impress was way out of my price range for a simple gift. Def not a Sees candy competitor We were eating next door , just an idea. Still looking. read more

Elegant chocolatier, Wailea Maui After lunch next door we stopped by this small chocolate store in the Wailea Gateway shopping center, corner of Piilani Highway and Wailea Ike Drive. The shoppe showcased a fancy collection of decadent chocolates and delicious Hawaiian confectionery, so pretty and elegantly displayed. My sweet tooth had gone full-blown craving. Love the chocolate truffles designed and shaped with island-theme in mind... honu (turtle), shell, pineapple, etc. So colorful and pretty. These make perfect gift but my purchases were for me! LoL! I bought a bag of Dark Chocolate Macadamia Nuts and a souvenir shirt. Exquisite handmade chocolate confections... this is the place to buy a wide variety of delicious Hawaiian-style made-on-Maui chocolates! Their chocolate collection is produced at the Hana Gold Plantation in Hana. Glad I was able to find it poking around while waiting for our reservation time at Monkeypod. Review #2728 read more

Your "bliss response";the moment when you taste Sweet Paradise Chocolate for the first time and every time after that. You close your eyes to let your other senses take over; the smell of the chocolate, the burst of flavor on your tongue and the moan of pleasure that comes from within. Your bliss moment. And what is so amazing is that experience is at your fingertips every time you place a piece of Sweet Paradise Chocolate in your mouth. Lose yourself in the bliss. read more

Absolutely delicious works of art!! I brought back lovely gifts for the family and ate plenty too! Marisa and her Son, Cody are as sweet as the treats. I also ADORED the chocolate drink (elixir of joy!). can't wait to go back on our next adventure to Maui! much appreciation for the love and joy that you offered! read more

We came here for great, local chocolate, and in that they did not disappoint. Friendly people too. We stayed way longer than we should as the lady who helped us regaled us with stories about her famous kinfolk. Great times... read more

It was a quick stop before grabbing drinks so it was a convenient space while we waited. Service was helpful with any questions that we had. The area was clean and easy to navigate. Took home a variety box to try with friends, and some chocolate turtles for good measure. I thought the POG was good though I'm always a sucker for things caramel. The smoked caramel was interesting in that respect, different though I'm not sure everyone would like it. read more

Don't go here if you have kids or really if you want customer service. Our kids, not small, we're pointing to the different types of chocolate that we wanted to buy and she asked them to stop touching...they were going to break the chocolate glass display case by touching. This quickly changed our purchase decision. Terrible customer service... We were looking forward to supporting small businesses. read more

guava strawberry & salted caramel chocolate dipped coffee beans boxes of chocolate turtles review only for tasting of the $2.50 individual chocolates. we could barely taste the guava strawberry but the chocolate was AMAZING. the salted caramel flavor was strong in a good way and the chocolate was just as smooth and rich as the guava strawberry. if we weren't money cautious it would be a fun way to try more flavors. there were so many tempting ones! the man at the register was very nice and answered our questions about taking chocolates through the airport. the store was clean and had a good variety of boxed and bagged chocolates aw well as a large display case full of goodies up front. read more

Absolutely delicious, the chocolate at sweet paradise is seriously habit forming.... So good. I tried the mango fudge, individual chocolates too and they are all so amazing- the lady at the counter was so nice. I think her name is Marissa. She took care of everything we needed. The store is cute and the chocolate is really made in Maui! Try it! You won't be sorry read more

Totally worth it! I've ordered several times this year (I'm from the mainland) and this is clearly my go to for quality chocolates. On top of uniqueness and delectability of their products, they have such beautiful designs so giving them as gifts for special occasions are truly appropriate. Kudos to the chocolatiers and the rest of the team at Sweet Paradise for bringing a little more happiness to our lives! =) PS.. my new favorite is Macadamia Nuts - Dark Chocolate with Toffee Bits if you can get your hands on them ;) Yum!! read more

We visited Sweet Paradise during our vacation to Maui. The chocolates here are beautiful works of art and they have so many unique flavors. Tamara was so patient with us as we asked many questions and were really indecisive. She helped customize our boxes to give our friends. We like the chocolate covered macadamia nuts, the toffee, the black lava salt caramels, Lychee, lilikoi, POG, coconut, and crème brûlée flavors. There are many to chose from and all are really tasty. We found ourselves missing these delights and found out that they ship to the mainland. Pay them a visit! read more

This was one of my favorite stops in Maui! Marissa was super hospitable and the chocolates were amazing! It made our day!

This is not a review of the chocolates. This is a review of a business with an employee who is openly flouting the indoor mask mandate by wearing a sequined mesh mask. Which is to say it's the F you mask. I'm wearing one because it's the state law but it's filled with holes so I can breathe and I can spread my breath all over you and the chocolates I'm selling. Went in on Dec 26th evening to buy some as gifts and a middle aged lady working behind the counter was proudly wearing her sequined mask where you can see her mouth. It's too bad because their chocolates are good and it is locally owned business. With people who work behind the counter openly defying state law, not only are they disrespecting the tourists who comply with the laws, they clearly don't care if they spread the virus. This is exactly what locals mean when they say not pono. Utterly disappointing to see a local business behaving this way. read more

I bought chocolates here one afternoon and picked out 6 assorted. I asked if the cashier had any black Friday deals. She asked me "Are you (Hawaiian word here)?" The way she asked was extremely rude and I wanted to walk out but bought the chocolate anyways. While they look good, the chocolates are average at best. read more

this place is complete bliss! I remember visiting about 5 years ago and since then, I've become a bigger food snob, so I was wondering how much I'd like this place. I remember loving it. And guess what? Still do!! My sister and I got a handful or so of truffles to go. I absolutely love love raspberry truffles in general, so I of course prioritized getting theirs. It did not let down. It had just the loveliest ratio of raspberry to chocolate flavor. Just sitting here and writing about it makes me wish I had about a dozen more with me right now. Not embarrassed to admit it. If you are a sucker for fancy chocolates like me, give this a go. You won't be sorry!! read more

My partner and I were killing time while we waited to be seated at Monkey Pod. We had the opportunity to speak with the owner Donald. He was very sweet and accommodating. It definitely was one of our favorite spots on our trip. The chocolates are so delicious and you can taste the passion they are made with, even after 17 years of business! Highly recommend! read more

I've been wanting to see what they had available for a while & I finally walked into this shop for the first time last week. They have a variety of decadent chocolate pieces nicely displayed in their cases. There were also a handful of local Hawaii-made products like honey, coffee, other chocolates, & ICE CREAM! Now, I went in with every intention of trying out their chocolate concoctions, but emerged with a large scoop of ice cream instead. Haha. This girl LOVES ice cream & I just couldn't resist. The ice cream is handmade on the Big Island by Tropical Dreams Ice Cream Company. 1 scoop is $4.99, a little steep, but they are very big scoops and the quality was amazing! The nice lady behind the counter mixed 2 flavors in my scoop for me - salted caramel & tahitian vanilla. Both flavors were very good and you can definitely taste the difference in quality in this gourmet ice cream. It's very dense, rich, and oh sooooo yummy! I highly recommend trying their ice cream! I'll have to come back next time and try their chocolate :) read more

The location of the shop is between a few restaurants. So if you need a sweet treat check it out. As I walked in I got hit by the sweet smell of chocolate. They have prepackaged gifts, ice cream and lots of hand crafted chocolates. You can also buy individual chocolates in different designs and unique flavors. We decided to buy the prepackaged turtle shaped chocolates for the family. They can ship it out of state just in time for the holidays. My favorite was the chocolate covered Kona coffee beans. So addicting! The employee was friendly and helpful. Next time I'll have to try the ice cream. Gives me an excuse to stop in again. read more

Maui is beautiful! Add chocolate to all that beauty and it gets even more beautiful! When in Maui, you MUST find this store and request Marissa! The combination of these three parts equals absolute perfection! Marissa helped us make our decisions on what to purchase and was patient and extremely knowledgable about the products. We had a hard time not buying everything in the store and taking Marissa back to Texas with us! This is a must when visiting Maui! read more

Chocolate Store?! Yes!! Pineapple habanero was good as you can taste the pineapple first and the the high kick of habanero at the end which is spicy! Coconut crime brûlée was really good. Madagascar vanilla was kind of plain... but I loved the dark chocolate flavor! Passion fruit heart was very strong but pretty good overall. Mint was pretty good, something you would expect. Overall this place has some good chocolate, great to give as gifts! But on the expensive side for sure. Would've been nice if the employees were a little more welcoming and friendly as well. read more
