We worked with Janel for our wedding cake - I leaned on her a lot for her recommendations and expertise, the result turned out not just beautiful but also delicious. Thank you for everything!

We were referred to Kona Sweets by our wedding coordinator and Janel did not disappoint. We worked with her months in advance of our wedding and she managed to create a masterpiece that represented our vision- she even incorporated onto the cake a figurine we sent to her beforehand from Arizona! The cake was not only beautiful it was also delicious. It was perfect. Inside and out, it was exactly what we wanted. Thank you, Janel!

We loved working with Janel for our wedding cupcake tower! She was awesome—so friendly, easy to communicate with, and made the whole process stress-free. We started with a trial where we got to sample three flavor combos (which was such a fun part of wedding planning!) and then chose a 6” cake and 60 cupcakes for our tower. Everything was absolutely delicious, beautifully presented, and just perfect. Janel delivered and set everything up at our venue, which made things so easy on the big day. Highly recommend her if you’re looking for something sweet and stunning for your wedding! We went with red velvet and lilikoi for our cake and the cupcakes were coconut, red velvet and chocolate with lilikoi filling. 🧁 Mahalo for making our day special ❤️

Kona Sweets Bakeshop is a super cute and small pastry shop in Kona!

My boyfriend and I came in to just get pastries originally, but when we saw the ice cream display we knew we had to try something.

Food: We ordered two pastries, a Cannoli and another cream-filled one (cannot remember the name). I was surprised at the lack of flavor in these, but they were still very enjoyable. I prefer stronger flavors, so this is just my preference. The ice cream was delicious. We got a ginger flavor and a chocolate coconut flavor and both were outstanding. The ice cream was definitely the star of the show.

Service: Very kind employees! They were very patient while we were choosing what to order.

Atmosphere: Very cute and cozy interior!

Kona Sweets made our amazing wedding cake! We worked with our planner Bliss in Bloom to do cake tastings and decided on 3 different fillings for each tier: lilikoi, Kona coffee buttercream and raspberry. Deciding on these flavors was probably one of the hardest parts of planning our wedding, because all of their cakes taste amazing. To this day, our guests rave about how good the cake was. Thank you so much!

Hands down, the best cake we’ve ever had! The communication with Janel was so easy through text. Ordered a 6” coconut cake for my boo’s 50th and can’t get over how beautiful the cake was and how amazing it tasted. Can’t get over how great it tasted. If you’re looking for a cake to celebrate a special occasion, look no further. This is the cake for you.

Janel made us a beautiful cake for our destination wedding as well as 20 cupcakes. They were ALL delicious. The Kona coffee buttercream is *tasty* as is the tropical carrot cake.
