    Blackberry cold foam matcha. So yummy!
    Joanne C.

    Called in order to try Blackberry cold foam matcha! So yummy! Friendly staff had it ready when I got there!

    We've been to Ko Bakery a few times. Our 2 daughters have been celebrating their birthdays together for some time and always request cakes from here. They're always a hit a the party. Perfect size, always moist, always yummy....not too sweet either! Made with love, and they are always accommodating with requests, colors, fillings, and flavors. She even let me come in to the bakery after business hours to place my order Cleanliness 10/10 Service 10/10 Promptness 10/10 Product 10/10 Totally worth the money

    THE Coco Oat Scotchie.

    We were visiting Kauai in celebration of my wife's birthday and I ordered a cake in advance from the mainland. We received a friendly confirmation from Candi and everything went very smoothly. "The Triple Threat" was made with high quality chocolate and was delicious. But the real threat I discovered was the best cookie I've ever had - the Coco Oat Scotchie. Coconut! Oats! Butterscotch! I saw it in the case while picking up the cake and had to have one...and then a couple of days later, I went back....and then again the day before we left. We met Candi at the store and she was as friendly as could be, and recommended some GREAT Hawaiian Turtle Mochas! She was awesome and very helpful. Can't recommend this place highly enough!

    Carrot ginger cake
    Doug E.

    This bakery is located in an industrial building across the street from one of the best plate lunch places around. Although their modern showroom was sleek and somewhat bare, the service I received was top notch. I didn't have enough appetite for more than a carrot ginger cake and macchiato, but boy were these great. The barista was very friendly and made an excellent drink for me. Just the right amount of everything to make a super rich espresso and the foam was fluffy and blanketed my caffeine. The cake was supremely moist and spiked with a ginger punch. Just the right amount of shredded carrots to make one think you're being somewhat healthy and the frosting had a sour cream twang. Overall one of the more decadent desserts of the day. I wish I took a better picture as this photo really does not do justice for the dessert. I'm anxious to come back and get more coffee and sweets.

    Lilikoi dream
    Emmy M.

    We just got a lilikoi dream cake from this bakery. This cake was so amazing! I loved this cake and enjoyed it til it was gone a couple days later. I can't wait to come back to Kauai and order more from them :)

    My husband and I got married at the Sheraton Kauai resort in March 2024. We ordered the 12in Tropical dream cake with coconut for cake cutting and also mini cheesecakes, cupcakes, and cookies for our late night snack/dessert bar for guests. The cake was beautiful and we are so happy we got to enjoy it after our wedding as well. Morris was always quick to respond to my email inquiries and delivered without any issues on our wedding day. I highly recommend Ko bakery for desserts and events.

    Carrot ginger cake

    I had ordered a carrot ginger cake for our 10 year anniversary and it was amazing. We grabbed a delicious coffee while picking up the cake and it was the best coffee we have had ever. Great bakery with lots of tasty items.

    Lilikoi cake with Hawaiian flowers
    Olga R.

    Amazing place! We have ordered a cake for our special occasion from Ko Bakery and communicated about the order details over the email with Candi. She is wonderful. Not only she was quick in response but took her time to write detailed cake, filling, and decoration description. We've got a lilikoi cake with Hawaiian flowers and it was beyond delicious: light cream not too sweet, lilikoi filling and yummy sponge. Very happy with how everything turned out and super grateful to Candi and owner Chris for how easy the process was!

    Birthday cake.
    Kelson S.

    Ordered a lilikoi passion cake for my wife's birthday through the bakery's website. It was a quick and easy experience - just remember the cutoff to order is 2 days prior to pickup. Picking up the cake was very easy as well. Online orders require pre-payment, so pickup just required my name. This was my first time ordering a cake from Ko; the clerk explained the process to ensure the best eating experience. Our family loved the flavor and texture of the cake. Ko bakery: thank you for putting the icing on the cake... figuratively and literally!

    6 inches Lili koi dream cake with fresh orchids
    Heidi L.

    Ordered the lili koi dream cake (I believe is the name) which was 6 inches with the addition of some fresh orchids for an extra $10 for a total price of $55. For 6 adults and 1 toddler this cake was the perfect size. It was a very beautiful cake, however the cake itself was pretty gross in taste. The cake was noticeably not fresh and the frosting was hard and almost crumbly in a strange way. It was such a disappointment as we ordered this cake in advance of our trip to celebrate our cousins 60th birthday and none of the 6 adults and toddler could finish their piece, nor was anyone interested in any leftovers the next day. This is especially saying a lot for all of us cake lovers, including my toddler who would do anything to have unlimited access to cake. So so bummed. We didn't want to make a big deal out of it but after thinking about it for 2 days, we decided to call them and let them know and thankfully they were very accommodating to making a new cake or offer a refund - sadly we were leaving the next morning so we took the refund option. We were told that sometimes cake are made in advance and frozen because of the humidity. The staff were very kind and apologetic so I would have loved to give them another chance. I would recommend you request a freshly made cake if ordering from them.

But let's talk about the TOAST! They all looked SO GOOD. I narrowed it down to two: the avocado toast deluxe or the eggy toast. The eggy toast is more like an egg salad. Even though I think any time of day is a good time for egg salad, I went with the deluxe because microgreens and pickled red onions have a hold on me. While I've had variations of this toast at home and in my hometown, I've never tried it with chili. My lips were burning a bit, so if you are a sissy with heat, you might want to opt for no or reduced sauce. I left with no regrets...except that I should have come sooner than our last day on Kauai...and I should have grabbed an eggy toast to go!

It was sooo tasty, caramel and coconut creamy heaven. The coffee had great flavor and wasn't bitter or watered down. It was the perfect pick me up after landing in Kauai at 9:30am. We also tried the bagels, including the Jimmy Pesto on a rosemary bagel and the Brahvocado with added pesto cream cheese on an everything bagel. The bagels were fresh and had the perfect chew and crisp to them. The pesto cream cheese was full of flavor. There are indoor seating available and they also have a to-go window outside that you can pick up mobile orders if you're in a hurry. Parking is available behind the shop, it has signs letting you know it's parking for their shop. Definitely look forward to visiting again soon and trying a new drink option
