I ordered a scone, guava teacake, coffee cake and a cinnamon roll. All were delicious! I ate them over several days and it didn't dry up or taste old. I recommend heating them up for 20-30 seconds in the microwave. It's so hard to find a good bakery that caters to gluten free and dairy free customers. I highly recommend this bakery. The young lady behind the counter was so nice, the baked goods were delicious and I can't believe it was all gluten free and dairy free! Take note that they are not open every day. I went on a Friday and they close at 2 PM and I got there at 1:30. But I can't say enough about the good service and the quality of the baked goods. I will be back!

Have been wanting to yry them when they were previously located on Lusitana St (extension to Alakea). Now that they are at the beginning of Smith Street, oceanside of Smith and King, its an even more convenient stop. Tried the snickerdoodle cookie and the everything but the gluten bagel. And while the tastes and textures were not to my liking, the fact that they are gluten free is a huge plus. I have enjoyed their made to order cakes before. Would definitely return for that as well as try some of their other offerings.

The curry was alright. The prices are great, I felt like they deserved to make what they were charging. There is plenty of parking. This is a bakery so you can just take a pastry to go or you can wait to sit down at the counter and order food to eat there. I'd definitely recommend doing both. If you go during off times you'll have a better chance of not needing to wait for a seat. Come here for the pancakes!!

She makes some of the best cakes. Period. Love her strawberry shortcake, but you really can't miss…read morewhen you try any of her cakes. Her baked goods are never overly sweet and pair perfectly with a cafe drink. What makes this concept so unique is that the bakery and cafe are both located in the same area. It just makes it that much easier to enjoy very delectable baked goods and drinks when you don't need to go very far. Service is always warm and friendly, and the owner is so kind and helpful. I always like to make my way here because the interior decoration is beautiful with live plants. It definitely gives a serene feel as if you're in a Ghibli film. Every time I come here I just feel so relaxed. 5 stars always and everyone should come visit at least once to sample their goods!

Such a gorgeous gorgeous cafe!!…read more Side note: It is two businesses in one shop. Cafe Lapin and CakeM. The drinks were not only good but look beautiful too! The fruit tart I had was not too sweet either which is perfect! Plenty of fruits, cream, and tart pastry ratio. 10/10 spectacular! The vibes here were also so calming. Great place to study or just chat with friends. There's a few seatings indoor but a lot more outside.

I heard about HI Angeltreats thanks to several posting recommendations on Hawaii bride groups on…read moreFacebook so decided to reach out for a quote. I liked how the online intake form was thorough and had an option to upload inspo pics plus her website was transparent about pricing. We only wanted a cake for us two for the cake cutting part of the reception so we chose the smaller heart-shaped cake with vintage piping. We love frogs and Angel frosted the most delightful frog couple for the cake. Our coconut cake with vanilla frosting looked so charming and suited our love so well. I liked that she offered delivery so that was one less thing to stress about for the day-of our wedding, knowing it would be taken care of. In the end, we were pleased with our frog-tastic "Hoppily Ever After" wedding cake. Angel's impeccable attention to detail with the frosting work is something to behold. I recommend HI Angeltreats for all your baked good needs to celebrate life on a sweet note! Thank you, Angel!!

The inside of the shop is relatively spacious with seating throughout; it can get a bit busy in the afternoons after school finishes. I ordered the mochi taro milk with boba and no sugar. The staff member helping me was polite, and my order came out quickly. I really liked my drink! The mochi layer had a soft, pleasing mouthfeel, and the boba was nice and chewy. The taro drink was creamy and not too sweet either, pairing really well with the mochi. Would definitely be interested in coming back to get the other drinks on their menu!

I'm not sure when this place changed owners, but I've been to this little shopping plaza before and…read moregot boba one time, but I think it's a different owner now. The parking lot was pretty empty on a weekday afternoon and there was only one person working. I really appreciated that they offered some snacks as well as their pretty extensive drink menu. There are so many boba places I would frequent more often if they also offered snacks. Uni offers cup noodle, freshly make bubble waffles, takoyaki and curry with rice! They even have combos that will save you a couple dollars if you get a milk tea with the food. Genius. I got the takoyaki and mixed fruit tea combo for $13. It doesn't sound like a deal, but I end up paying way more and wasting time going to two different stores when I want food and tea. The takoyaki was piping hot, piled with toppings and served in a little box that was really convenient for take out. The fruit tea was one of the better fruit teas I've had. I like that it had chunks of oranges and watermelon. The service was a little slow because there was only one worker, but she was really nice and trying her best. I think I'll be back if I'm in the area. They have cute looking desserts too! And plenty of places to sit with free wifi!

We provided the stands and display pieces, and our coordinator set everything up after delivery. We loved that we were able to customize our cake shooters to fit exactly what we wanted. Our dessert bar included red velvet mini cupcakes, devil's food mini cupcakes, guava strawberry cake shooters, strawberry s'more tarts, and Rice Krispies treats. Everything was absolutely delicious--and that's coming from someone who usually doesn't even like wedding cake! Our personal favorite was the strawberry s'more tart, which was a huge hit with our guests as well.

I've decided to update my review on Elvin's when I was caught in a bind and they came through…read more However, it wasn't all cherries. You see, last Christmas I gave you my heart and the very next day, you gave it away. This year, to save me from tears........no, no. This never happened to me but Wham's "Last Christmas" which was written by George Michael, is overly played during the holidays in Japan. On a serious note, last Christmas I was jonesing for a yule log. I saw posts on IG and when I attempted to order one at a bakery on S King St, I was advised it was too late. At a Japanese themed bakery I was offered the option of a Christmas cake but wasn't in a mood for strawberry shortcake. I was on a mission. I recall attending a Christmas dinner at my cousin's a few years back where someone brought Yule logs and found that they were from Elvin's Bakery (EB). I also did a search on EB's photo gallery and saw one posted so I gave them a call. Placing an order via telephone was literally a piece of cake. It was confirmed to a tee and was also advised their closing on Christmas Day so pick up would be on Christmas Eve. I made payment over the phone. All done. The Yule log was a hit at Christmas dinner where it was visually stunning and tasty. It was not overly sweet nor dry. Well executed and decorated beautifully. So why not 5-stars? Picking it up was a shocker when the Yule log was placed in a cake box that clearly was meant for a 1/2 sheet cake (?) size so you had to be extra careful when transporting and storing. There was no support nor fillers in the box for the quite empty box as the Yule log was not meant for the box provided. In closing, I'm grateful EB came through with an amazing dessert for our holiday dinner but was caught off guard with their boxing. I'll need to think twice about ordering a Yule log again from them and will definitely order earlier and seek the options on Oahu before deciding on where to go.

I have traveled a great deal and have acquired a taste for specialty cakes. I was looking for a specific flavor, Dubai Chocolate, and a specific look and, for the most part, Honolulu Rose Cake Shop did not disappoint. The cake looked amazing. I'm sorry that I don't have pictures but if you look at her work on Instagram, then you'll know that she's an artist. We were a little out off by the frosting because it was a bit thick and buttery, definitely not recommended for eating leftovers on the next day. I don't think Dubai Chocolate is an easy flavor to deliver, to be honest, as a cake. Without the frosting, we loved the cake. I would have enjoyed myself just crunching away at the filling.

I don't come often, mostly for my better half's birthday and valentine's day as it is a bit of a splurge. However, it is absolutely worth the money as the quality of the baking, decorating, and ingredients can be tasted. This is not mass-produced stuff that you'd get at a certain blue and white themed bakery up the street. As for the only real nearby competitor, Beyond Pastry, they're more pastry and savory rather than cakes and confectionaries. Both are delicious but different niches. You can order online or just drop in and see what's in the display case for the day. Usually there's a good mix of whole cakes, cake slices, cookies, cheesecakes and other stuff you probably should not eat in one sitting alone. Everything I've gotten from Rose Cake Shop, from a strawberry cake to matcha cheesecake, to the cookies has been delicious. The owner is polite and easy to talk to. Parking downtown is as always, a gamble, but there is some street parking and the post office. 4.5 Stars
