Why Bobalato

Not a dessert counter.
A dessert experience.

Everything on our menu is built in front of you — which is exactly why people bring their friends back.

Churned in our shop

Small-batch gelato made in house. Most people never get to watch it happen — here you can.

Mochi donuts, made fresh

Rice-flour dough — soft, chewy, never sitting overnight. New flavours every week.

Waffles pressed to order

Warm bubble waffle, gelato, sauce and crunch — assembled the moment you order it.

Savoury that lands

Korean Egg Drop sandwiches with signature soft-scramble eggs. Dessert spot that covers lunch.

Gift cards

Hard to get wrong.

Sent by email in under a minute — the easy answer for teachers, neighbours and the friend who always picks the dessert place.

Our story

"Made with love, served with joy."

Bobalato & Mochi Co. is a family-owned dessert café in downtown Carmel. We opened because we wanted a place where the treats aren't shipped in frozen — where the gelato is churned in the back, the donuts are made that morning, and the waffle is still warm when it reaches you.

Come in once and you'll see the whole thing happen. That's rather the point.
