It has that fruity lilikoi flavor and it's cake-like. I will definitely get this from now on. The worker noted it's a staff favorite. Service: we got there at around 8:55am on a Tuesday. The line wasn't too bad and took us about 20 minutes. Ambiance: there's not a lot of seating, but it's pretty quick so usually we're able to snag an outside table.

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.

"Why are you guys going over there when you have an amazing bakery around the corner?" our friend Sheryl told us. And then she took us there and pointed it out. This place ended up being an amazing stop after a morning on the beach. We got the $8 Salted Caramel Croissant, $7.50 Chocolate Croissant, $8.50 Guava Matcha, and a $7.50 White Mocha. The drinks were rich and robust and the croissants were flaky. I thought the salted caramel croissant would end up being too sweet but it had the right amount of sweetness that even Joyce didn't complain about the sugar level. I heard you have to get coconut cake here. This is a note for myself to try it.

The egg shokupan was actually one of the worst egg sandos I've ever tried. The shokupan was not fluffy at all and very dry. The chocolate croissant was average. The salted caramel croissant was good but a tad sweet. The thing that stood out was the coconut cake. I'm usually not a fan of coconut but the cake was light, fluffy and not too sweet. I would definitely come back to this bakery just for this dessert. The hot drip coffee was also very good at the bakery. There are tables both inside and outside the cafe.

Early bird gets the worm…read more I've been to 85°C Bakery Cafe Ala Moana (85) multiple times and just realized I haven't written a review yet. This store had its soft opening in October 2022 and has expanded to another store in Kapolei August 2023. 85 hails from Taiwan and started business in 1984. They offer quality baked goods using Asian ingredients such as taro, mochi, sesame and pork sung (floss) and boba. There's also an extensive list of hot and cold drinks you can get here. There are over 1000 locations internationally with most of them in Taiwan and China. They can also be found in Hong Kong, Australia and USA. Like most bakeries, limited quantities of baked goods are offered during the morning and highly recommended to come here earlier in the day for a better selection. Most of my visits are sadly in the afternoon after work but my last visit was memorable. My friends and I just got through celebrating a friend's birthday at a nearby restaurant where on the way back to my car I made a pitstop to here. As expected the shelves were quite bare with limited offerings but they had what I wanted: marble taro. I had just eaten dinner and was full but picked one for the road and paired it with a taro lavender latte. I literally had no room in my stomach even though over an hour had passed since I got home so I had the roll and drink for breakfast the next morning. The marble taro roll was just as good as I remembered. It was soft with a nice texture contrast with the creamy, mashed taro paste in between. It had just a good amount of sweetness where I could indulge and not feel guilty. The star had to be the taro lavender latte which I didn't have high expectations for. I like to sample drinks with lavender as I do enjoy floral essence as it's not offered at many places. I had requested my drink to be 50% sweet, which was the right decision as I need to watch my sugar intake. Service was above average. It wasn't busy when I arrived so the line moved quickly. The guy at the counter was energetic and courteous which made my experience there pleasant. It was past 7pm where there were some people utilizing the dining area but it was quiet. 85 can be very lively during peak hours with heavy foot traffic. Overall, I'm a fan of 85 where I'll be sure to stop by again. Just need to be careful as my numbers for sugar and cholesterol are being monitored and I'm currently on medication.

They should rename this place 92 Degrees Bakery because when I went in there on September 13 it was…read moreabout 92 degrees in there. Clearly something wrong with the A/C system. I got a loaf of bread and something else. Approached the register. The girl manning the registered had her back turned and was on her phone. She did a side glance and saw me then messed around on her phone for another 20 seconds or so before helping me. Got out of there, went to CPK for dinner. Moving stuff around in our bags the loaf of bread fell out of its bag and directly onto the restaurant floor. COME ON GUYS. USE A TWIST TIE ON YOUR PRODUCTS. Same thing for the small item we bought. Not secured in its bag. Won't be going back to this absolute clown show of a bakery. Just get rid of it and bring back Pearl Nightclub.

Once you step in the smell of fresh bread instantly fills the air. Located in the Times Arcade Mall on Beretania, there is plenty of parking in front of the bakery. Whenever I go I always get their Curry Pan, Apple Muffin, Shio Butter roll, and White Bread. Curry Pan: nice crispy exterior, soft bread interior and good Japanese curry filling Muffins: light flavoring and airy, not dense Shio Butter Roll: good balance of salt and butter. It may look plain but it packs a lot of flavor. White Bread: soft, buttery and they can slice the bread to your desired thickness

It's pretty nostalgic when you are able to take your baby to one of your favorite bakeries growing…read moreup I remember growing up and coming here with my mom to pick up an assortment of things. She would sometimes have ham rolls and raisin breadsticks waiting for us afterschool. My coworker said they have the best croissants on island. They are indeed very similar to those I've had in Paris. My favorites from Epi-Ya? The custard pudding! While plentiful in Tokyo, not very many establishments will make or sell custard pudding. Because of this, I would get one almost everyday when visiting Japan The bread is baked fresh daily and everything is much lower in price (compared to other bakeries) It's always busy, so that just goes to show that the community also enjoys this beloved patisserie. Thanks for reading my reviews! Let me know what I should try next!

I noticed it…read morewhen I was eating malasadas one morning and saw a small girl carrying around the cutest slice of rainbow cake. I was too full at the moment to order more food, but I returned on my last evening in Oahu to order a slice of rainbow cake for myself. It was somewhat early in the evening -- probably around 6PM or so -- so the Royal Hawaiian Center food court was getting a little busy but there were still empty tables around. The bakery itself had a few people in line so I perused the display case for other desserts. They had quite a few interesting ones: lilikoi basque cheesecake, Diamond Head puff custard, ube cake. Unfortunately, my appetite is much smaller than it once was, but the cakes looked delicious and the people in front of me all ordered their cakes ahead of time, so they are quite in demand! The cashier took my order quickly and I was able to get a slice of rainbow cake, which had fluffy cream and moist layers of colorful cake. The flavor reminded me of fruity pebbles, but without being overly sweet the way children's cereal used to be. I really liked eating it because it didn't make me feel guilty eating a dessert. I hope I can return to Kulu Kulu sometime and try their other desserts a well!

My original Lady M review is in Waikiki Tea because they are located inside. When you walk by on…read moreBeach Walk, you'll see a board saying Lady M with photos of their famous crepe cakes. The awning above will say Waikiki Tea. It's immediately after an open parking lot if you're walking or driving down the one way street. I'm not sure if you can park in there or not but I found loading zone parking so I parked there and walked over. When you enter, you'll see some indoor seating, the coffee prep area and a display case of some of their cakes. It's a cozy spot but clean and white. My most recent visit was to pick up a birthday cake for a friend. He's been talking about it so I figured it would be something nice to surprise him with. Hopefully he enjoys the surprise and is able to share the cake with all his loved ones. Due to the holidays, Lady M is busy and sells out so preordering is best. I was just extremely lucky they had a Signature cake available the day I called. The person on the phone took down my info and asked what time I was going to pick up the cake then put it on the side for me. Unfortunately, they don't hand write Happy Birthday on the cake but they did provide me a complimentary Happy Birthday cake topper which was nice. Overall great cake option for any occasion.

Lady M on Beach Walk in Waikiki! What a gem!!! It's a small cake boutique next to towering hotels…read moreso it can be said missed. It doesn't look much from the outside. They have 3 free parking stalls. You can also find street parking either on Beach Walk or Saratoga Road. I walked in and was greeted with a friendly smile. His name is Kevin. You will also see a wide selection of Royce Chocolates display on the right side of the wall and in front of you the glass display of the world's famous Mille Crêpes. Kevin helped us decide on our black box Royce Chocolates. It's a little pricey but the black quality of the chocolate is divinely melt in your mouth full of rich, creamy goodness and delicious chocolate!!! Royce' is famous for the Nama chocolates all the way from Japan. But guess what?! You don't need to fly to Japan to get your hands on them! Just drive yourself to Beach Walk in Waikiki and I guarantee you'll thank me for it!! Yup, you will! ;) We also picked up a few flavors of the Lady M Mille Crêpes. We got Amedei Chocolate, Pistachio, Chestnut and Tiramisu. Each layers of the cake is made with perfection!!! I paired mine with an ice caramel macchiato. It would probably taste better with a hot caramel macchiato but it was a little sunny so I opted for the ice drink. The coffee is also sooo good!!! It almost remind me of the coffee I had in France! I thought I'd never find a better caramel macchiato here in Honolulu than Starbucks! I was completely wrong! Kevin, thank you so much for making my first visit so memorable! You were kind with a friendly smile and lots of aloha!!! Come visit Lady M! Whether you come in for their world's famous Mille Crêpes, Royce' chocolates or meet Kevin, I know you'll love this place! Thank you for reading my review. Have a great week!!!

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!!
