Dessert is a course that typically comes at the end of a meal, usually consisting of sweet food. It could be a cake, an ice cream, a fruit salad, etc.
Whenever we dine out, we would usually look for a place to have a dessert. There are times that we will go out of our way just to try that new dessert. There are also times that we were really just curious when we find one by accident.
In no particular order, here are our dessert favorites this 2016:
Pablo Cheese Tart
One Jar, PhP 100 for 70g and PhP 225 for 175g
After a filling dinner at Brickfire and Buffalo’s Wings N’ Things, we walked to SM The Block from SM North Annex. We went to Twisted Candy. The candies that are being sold there are made on the spot. It makes you wonder how they were able to come up with such designs on those candies. You can check out this Instagram video by Sharlyne. 🙂 (more…)
It was my first time to visit JCo Donuts and Coffee in Eastwood to attend a media launch and I was glad to know that this particular branch is big! I actually like how spacious it is. Another good thing about this branch is that it’s open 24 hours! (more…)
The temperature has been really high the past few days and I usually tend to look for something cold to eat or drink. Last Saturday, I went to SM The Block to try out Picket Fence Milk and Ice Cream Bar with Sharlyne and her Mom. It was actually our first time to try out their ice cream. I asked the crew some questions and I learned that their ice cream products are imported from Australia. I also learned that Picket Fence is a local brand and is not a franchise from Australia.
After J.Co Donuts and Coffee have opened their branches in SM Megamall and SM Mall of Asia, they have finally opened their much-awaited Greenbelt 3 branch. The Greenbelt 3 branch of J.Co is just beside Figaro. We were teased by J.Co for a long time with their coming soon sign. (more…)
Virgie’s Napoleones
My father has been to Bacolod several times. And every time he comes back to Manila, I’d expect him to be back with several packs of Piaya from BongBong’s which most people buy as a “pasalubong”. If you would like something different, we suggest boxes of Napoleones from Virgie’s. (more…)
Strawberry Sundae, 25 pesos
Finally, me and Sharlyne were able to try Jollibee’s Strawberry Sundae. Just like the chocolate variant, their strawberry sundae uses the same soft-serve vanilla ice cream topped with strawberry syrup and some strawberry bits. Their strawberry sundae is indeed for someone who has a sweet tooth. 😉 Sundaes, ice creams and other cold desserts are included in my list of comfort foods. And because you might be stressed of thinking what to do this Christmas, we’re giving away something for our dear readers everyday courtesy of Jollibee. The contest shall start tomorrow and it will run until Sunday. 😉
Various cupcakes at Sophie’s Mom
Sophie’s Mom is not just your ordinary neighborhood bakery and confectionery. It’s located at Aranga cor. Santol St. in San Antonio Village, Makati City. Even if it’s located in a residential area, I would go out of my way to buy some red velvet cupcakes and Spanish bread which can normally be bought in our neighborhood bakery. (more…)
The only food I eat from Max’s Corner Bakery is the Caramel Bars. It’s the family’s favorite dessert at Max’s. I haven’t tried the other sweet treats that they’re offering. Just a few weeks ago, me and Sha were able to sample their cupcakes. We even decorated our own cupcake as part of the activity. 😀 (more…)
Box of 3, 109 pesos
Chewy Junior is not your typical cream puff. One can easily tell just by looking at it. Chewy Junior cream puffs are crisp on the outside. However, once your teeth goes deeper on it, you’ll notice that it’s soft and chewy. (more…)
