    Delicious, beautiful and delivered! Arrived in Poipu on a Tuesday and decided to find a cake for our son's 30th birthday-- saw the reviews and called Sandi. She was a sweetheart, talked me through options and I ordered a small chocolate cake with Nutella filling and happy birthday in blue. What was delivered was FAR beyond my expectations!! (See picture!). I will order more cakes from Sandi even when we're not celebrating a birthday!

    Sandi did phenomenal cake work! Efficient communication. Decorations beautiful. Passion fruit buttercream fantastic! Sandi...thank you for helping us celebrate our friend!

    Birthday Cake
    Josh S.

    Sandi provided us with the most beautiful cake for my daughters 7th birthday. There was such care and attention to detail in every aspect of its decoration. It was perfect in every way and DELISH! Oh my was it delicious. Subtle coconut flavoring in the crumb and which had just the right density - and the filling was so creamy and tart. It added just the right contrast to the just sweet enough buttercream. This may be the best cake Ive ever had, and Sandi was so sweet and accommodating! Highly recommend.

    She did a fabulous job. I said I had a 3 year old who liked Spider-Man and cars and that I didn't want a lot of food coloring, and she delivered a beautiful 7-inch cake with the remote controlled Spider-Man car on top! It even had white chocolate webbing and a delicious tropical fruit filling of pineapple and banana.

    She baked and decorated the two layered cake.

    I was grateful to have found Sandi. I am not from Kauai so I was nervous because I wasn't going to be able to try it beforehand, but I took a leap of faith. She definitely exceeded my expectations. She was very responsive since day one. She helped us choose the flavor based on what we liked. We decided to go with her Kona Mocha cake, which is a rich chocolate cake filled with fudge and espresso swiss meringue buttercream. This cake was the best cake I have EVER had. The cake itself was very soft and the filling actually tasted like coffee and it wasn't too sweet. Not only did the cake taste amazing, but she did a fantastic job decorating it. We were so happy that our guests loved our cake too. You won't regret ordering a cake from her. I wish I could go back just for a slice.

    AMAZING beautiul meticulous delicious cake with lilikoi filling!
    Cobugi L.

    Was having a hard time finding a bakery to make my sister's wedding cake and came across this Yelp page. I gave her a call and told her I wanted a three layer 6 inch semi naked cake without borders. She asked me what flavor and told me Likikoi was popular. Done. Mailed her a check. On the day of the wedding, she showed up with this beautiful cake, on a cake board complete with banana leaves (I bought and took a cake stand with me but I shouldn't have bothered), and even though I told her no flowers, she brought a ziploc bag with fresh flowers with stems prepared to decorate the cake. Guys, this level of service is so above and beyond on so many levels. First of all, my own $700 engagement cake made in LA made me get my own flowers from the florist for decoration! Second, this cake was METICULOUSLY made. I bake layered tiered cakes for the odd occasion, and I can appreciate the meticulous clean beautiful layers of cake, frosting, and lilikoi filling when the cake was cut open. Wow. Third, the cake was moist and delicious! Most guests went for seconds at least, and after the party was over, the whole cake was gone (this is a party of 9 adults, this was a LOT of cake per person!) I haven't written an extensive review in a long time but I cannot recommend Sandi's cakes enough. If you ever need a cake on Kauai, there is no question, Sandi is your gal. The ONLY thing that I could improve on the experience would be the ability to pay and communicate online. Perhaps Venmo or even Zelle would have been great. Then a confirmation text or call on the day of or the day before would also have been very nice. Also, I think she needs a PR manager because obviously I think everybody needs to know about Sandi and her amazing cakes Thank you thank you Sandi!!

    Wedding cake. Mr and Mrs.

    Beautiful wedding cake. It was delicious! Thank you Sandi for baking it so quickly for us! The best!!!

    Very happy with her cake!!!

    I can not say enough about Sandi's amazing cakes, amazing customer service & overall best ordering experience! I called from California to order a cake & have it delivered to the hotel my friend was staying at. She was celebrating a special birthday so this called for a special cake. Sandi made the PERFECT cake!!! She delivered it to the hotel & was kind enough to work with the staff to arrange the in person delivery. I will forever promote Sandi & her amazing cakes!!! Thank you from the bottom of my heart Sandi!!

    I was looking for a special cake for my sister's birthday and came across the reviews for Sandi. She was so friendly and recommended the Lilikoi butter cream flavored cake. She also delivered the cake. It was perfect. It was not too sweet and had amazing flavor. The flowers were so beautiful we saved one for the whole trip!

    lovely cake, lovely person. celebrated my sister's birthday on vacation in Kauai in style. Sandi is terrific. highly recommend.

    Simply amazing and delicious!
    Tony P.

    Sandi's cakes are amazing! I was fortunate enough to find her Yelp page and contact information before our elopement to Kauai. The pictures and reviews from others speak volumes about her work and VERY delicious cakes. I would highly recommend anyone looking for a great Wedding cake to use Sandi. She was great to work with and easy to talk to over the phone. We arranged all the details ahead of time and everything was good to go for our pick-up. Turned out her place was right across the street from our Air BnB so we could walk over! Her cake was excellent, delicious and so beautiful. It really made the day very special. 100% recommended!

    March 25, 2019 Wedding Cake 2-tier vanilla chiffon cake with passion fruit filling and light, fluffy white buttercream frosting
    Lindsey W.

    Sandi is just the greatest! She made our wedding cake in March 2019 and then she made us a smaller version of our wedding cake for our 2 year wedding anniversary. I would highly recommend her. She is very responsive, helpful and friendly.

    a blue angry bird cake

    Sandi is truly amazing at her craft! We needed a birthday cake for a 2-year old in 3-days time, and she was responsive and excited to take on the project. I was just expecting a small cake with some decorations for our daughter's "Bluey" themed birthday party - she actually made Bluey! Not only was it the centerpiece of the party, but everyone was stunned by how good it tasted! She used fresh strawberries inside and the frosting was a hit! I will continue to seek Sandi's talents for all of our future birthdays and events. Thank you Sandi!

Get it toasted/warmed up as it's divine! Croissants are amazing. I also loved the almond croissants. I couldn't finish the plain croissant and so surprised to see it was still fresh next day! Super friendly service too. The only reason I am not giving them 5 stars is the Malasadas. They aren't the best. Maybe I'm spoilt by the ones I had at Maui (sugar beach bakery) but these were not good. Got a box of 6 and only had half. I would avoid these if you have had good malasadas before. Parking is super easy as it's in a strip mall and morning there is plenty of parking. It's also 10-15 min walk to poipu beach!

My hubby got the breakfast plate that had sausages and rice. He loved it. Also got the chicken tinola and pork adobo on a second visit and more pan de sal! The shopkeepers are so nice and friendly. It's a pleasure supporting this local small business. It will definitely be a place we'll return to over and over again during future visit to Kauai! Highly recommend!

I should've got a dozen. This place is a small Filipino bakery and turo-turo joint on Rice Street in Lihue in between Rob's Good Times Grill and the bowling alley. The Tita that helped us was friendly and I was going to get a bag of their homemade chicharon but decided against it. She laughed when I changed my mind. They have some vegetables for sale scattered about the small retail space out front. But the main draw is their baked goods and their hot food to-go. I saw everything from biko (sticky rice dessert), musubis, empanadas, suman (sticky rice wrapped in banana leaf) for baked and packaged goods. Then they had pancit, dinuguan, fried fish and pork adobo. There were several other offerings that I cannot recall. Pan de sal was 3 for $1 or a dozen for $4. Gotta get the dozen. Parking is in the share lot right out front or street parking along Rice if the plaza is packed.
