"I rarely write a review, but had to do so after finding this gem of a bakery when looking for gluten free options. We loved the lilikoi cheese cake and pastry we purchased at the store and farmers market. The bakers are as nice as their products are delicious. Can’t wait to come back and sample their breads and other items."

"We highly recommend Sandwich Isle Bread Company! The wedding cake they created for us was beyond anything we imagined, an absolute work of art. Our guests were in awe, with many unsure if it was even real until we cut into it!
The flavors were just as incredible as the design, moist, flavorful, and perfectly balanced. Zeke, the cake designer/baker, is clearly gifted, and the care she puts into her craft shines through in every bite. Suzette made the entire process seamless with excellent communication, and Brock delivered the cake flawlessly and right on time.
This bakery is something special! We thank them deeply for being a part of our wedding day.
Exceptional cake, fair pricing, and service that’s second to none. We’ll be recommending Sandwich Isle Bread Company to everyone we know!"

"First of all, I was a lover of bread before I moved to Kona in 2016. One of the most sad thing for me is that it is difficult to find any bakery here in Kona. Probably Safeway of SacknSave were the best choice for me. Oh, Costco too. However, they were not great but just okay to put my appetite for bread down. When I found this bakery in Waimea, I shouted out! Yay! It's only taking 40 minutes from Kona to visit this bakery. I hope to see something good bakery in Kona soon. I recommend this Sandwich Isle Bread Company. If you are a lover of bread (Who is not?), then you really don't want to miss this one."
