Unit 16 Sweets

By | Great Ideas, Yummy! | One Comment

Another booth at Best Food Forward which I liked.  A fun giveaway – personalized chocolates!  I remember I had this 13 years ago when I had Javier and I had to have it printed and then bought Hershey’s chocolate.  Now it can be done so easily for you

Bucky’s

By | Yummy! | No Comments

As I am going around Balik Bukid, I see many cousins with booths 🙂  I try to buy a little something from each to support them.  I stopped by Migs booth 

 Since I was on my way out – I just took one of what he was selling without knowing what it really was

I opened the package and had it for dessert for lunch and oh my gosh!!!!  It was so so good!! One of the best brownies I have ever tasted.  LOVE LOVE LOVE!  I felt bad I only bought one!  I will definitely try the others!!!

I went to Rustan’s Makati ( not sure if all stores have this – Shopwise carries Casino too) to look for it and I was so happy it was on sale!!!!! YIPEE!!! I hoarded!!  And there is another variety in Chocolat.  The prices here are not even the real sale price –  The hazelnut came out to P 60.40 and the Chocolate was P 52.50

Cookie Butter Pancake Surprise at Pancake House

By | Yummy! | No Comments

I have been trying new things at Pancake House- after all we are there every Saturday.  It’s a good thing Dina wanted to share this Red Velvet pancakes.  People were saying it was not good, but to us it was okay

Thanks to instagram I do not have to wait for my blog to come out to let out my excitement when I see something!

This is proof that photos on ads and staged articles are very different for the actual food dish being served which is why at Heart2Heart,  What you see is what you get.  Nothing is staged unless it is a press photo

Cookie butter has been available at Heart2Heart’s store since last year – first launched at P 525.00 when we were consigning from a friend, then later on I was able to bring them in myself and sold it at P 350.00.  The store does not make much – just enough to cover expenses of buying it there, shipping it here, handling etc etc.  The last batch arrived was the Crunchy version which was in red label.  Now the store totally ran out.  Some stores still sell at P 450.00 and up.  

Apparently they are rationing the cookie butter at Trader Joes.  Trader Joes is not happy that people are selling their product 3 to 4 times the price at their store.

So any cookie butter you can get hold of now is valuable! 🙂

Munch by Gigi

By | Yummy! | No Comments

Thank you Gigi Chua Caedo for these wonderful goodies!  Gigi told me that she has left the corporate world and has taken interest into baking- French Macarons in particular!

She makes other pastries like sugar puffs and snow capped cookies

But her specialty is macarons!  I shared them at Saturday lunch with Lola and everyone liked them
