Frosting and sprinkles and smiles – oh my! Cupcakes are becoming a must-have morsel these days, and we know where to find the most decadent, mouth-watering confections hidden around Honolulu. Below are two local shops that produce original, delicious, and truly CRAVE-worthy cupcakes.

Cake Couture Cupcakes (cakecouture.com)
820 West Hind Drive #112, Honolulu 96821
Founded in 2007 by wedding cake baker Carmen Emerson-Bass, Cake Couture began as a small shop whose popularity exploded along with the cupcake craze sweeping the nation. With Classic, Gourmet, and Mini confections in flavors like Orange Creamsicle, Chai Spice, and Mocha, these cupcakes sell out fast! It’s not a bad idea to get there early or call ahead and make sure your favorites are still available.

Hokulani Bake Shop (hokulanibakeshop.com)
500 Ala Moana Blvd. Suite 4-B, Honolulu 96813
Husband and wife duo, Tushar and Ana Dubey, infuse their made-from-scratch cupcakes with loads of local flavor! If you’re in the mood for unique and delicious island-inspired morsels, try the Strawberry Guava or Lilikoi with Lemon Cream Cheese Cupcakes. Or, if you really want to indulge, bite into a luxurious Waialua Chocolate Fudge Cupcake filled with fudge made from the rarest chocolate in the entire world (it’s from the north shore of Oahu)!

These are just two of what is sure to be many more local cupcakeries near you.  As the obsession for these sweet treats grows, we’ll keep you posted on the newest Hawaiian hot spots!
