At Homegrown Cone, every serving starts with real fruit — 100% grown on Hawaiʻi Island, picked at the peak of ripeness, prepared by hand, and frozen without preservatives. We mix it to order with your choice of premium sweet cream ice cream or dairy-free vegan coconut gelato using a specialized blender, creating the smoothest, freshest-tasting real fruit ice cream you've ever tried.
Our process is what sets us apart from every other ice cream shop on the Big Island. We source fruit directly from our own farm in Holualoa and from independent local farmers across Hawaiʻi Island. Each fruit is hand-prepared and flash-frozen to lock in flavor and nutrition — no syrups, no artificial flavors, no preservatives. When you order, we blend your choices of freshly-frozen fruit with locally-produced Waimea Creamery ice cream or Nicoco vegan coconut gelato right in front of you. The result is a completely unique, made-to-order real fruit ice cream experience you won't find anywhere else in Kona.
Whether you're craving tropical classics like mango and lilikoi or want to try something exotic like soursop or jaboticaba, every flavor is a true taste of Hawaiʻi Island. With dairy-free and vegan gelato options available, there's something for everyone — and you can combine up to two fruits for a custom creation. It's why locals and visitors alike call us the best ice cream in Kona and on the Big Island.
