Nicoco

Hawaii's favorite vegan gelato! Winner of Best of East Hawaii 5 years in a row! Aloha! Thank you for trying Nicoco! We hope you enjoy Nicoco as much as we do!

We are a young vegan couple with a passion for eating and preparing raw, local foods, that nourish the soul body and mind. Our quest for healthier, more sustainable living, brought us to Hawaii where we started Nicoco, to fill the cone shaped hole in our hearts for a delicious, decadent but healthy and local treat. Our philosophy of eating locally harvested food led us to the colorful farm markets
