Crema's Take
“Tucked away in Lihue's industrial area, Ko Bakery is a hidden gem that transforms custom orders into edible art, with devoted customers raving about their innovative creations like lilikoi buttercream cakes and thoughtfully crafted pastries. The team, particularly owner Candi, brings genuine warmth and expertise to every interaction, making them feel more like collaborators than just vendors as they help you bring your cake vision to life. While there's no seating to linger, this is the kind of spot where quality and care shine through in every bite.”

Ko Bakery recently did our wedding cake and exceeded our expectations with both the design and flavor of the cake. We were extremely pleased with how the cake turned out and our family and friends all commented on how great it tasted!
Mahalo for the amazing cake! We ordered a Neapolitan cake with lilikoi buttercream for our baby’s first birthday and they made it overnight for us. It was super light, delicious, and perfectly balanced. Very friendly service and wonderful staff. Highly recommend this bakery.
Went looking for a new coffee shop, and based on reviews, tried this one. You probably would never find it by accident, as it in the middle of an industrial estate. No seating, just a couple of stand up tables. But the baked goods, and the coffee drinks are excellent. We are them in the car, and was still totally worth !
This bakery is an absolute gem. From the initial enquiry to ordering, everything was so easy and the staff were genuinely lovely. The vibe of the bakery is beautiful. We ordered the pumpkin crunch cake and it was decadent but perfectly balanced — honestly unsure how they make a profit given the size and quality. The candied pecans with the spiced cake and cream cheese frosting were incredible. We also grabbed cookies and fudge brownies and everything was a 10/10. We’ll definitely be back.
Ko Bakery was everything I hoped for and more. I worked closely with Candi and I honestly adore her. I had so many questions about flavors, textures, designs, all of it, and she always responded with so much patience and warmth. She has this calm, steady way about her that truly took the stress out of the process. We ended up choosing the white cake with haupia icing for our main cake and a chocolate ganache groom’s cake, and both were unreal. Our guests are still talking about how good they were. The cakes were beautiful, delicious, and exactly what we imagined. I am so thankful we chose Ko Bakery, they made this whole experience feel so special.
