Maui Specialty Chocolates is a small family shop offering some of the best homemade chocolates and amazing mochi on Maui. The mochi is incredibly fresh, soft, and perfectly chewy, with a taste that is delicious and not too sweet. Must-try flavors include the dark chocolate truffle, which has a very nice smooth taste, and the peanut butter milk chocolate, which offers a deliciously chewy, crunchy, and savory texture with chunky peanut chunks. The traditional red bean paste mochi is also yummy. It is essential to call ahead to make a mochi reservation or arrive early to ensure selections are available, as they sell out quickly. Their chocolates are also excellent, with highlights like the Mac nut marshmallow rice crispy cup or block. The incredibly kind people provide great, delicious gifts to bring back to the mainland.
