Maulan season is also a hot chocolate season. Tapos, I paired it with a baked bread roll with chocolate filling, plus may chocolate pudding pa on the side. I had these chocoholic's dream breakfast trio yesterday that definitely satisfied my sweet cravings. The hot chocolate I had was actually our traditional Filipino hot chocolate from Cacao Mistry - Strong Instant Cacao Drink. It's handcrafted from premium Philippine cacao, sweetened with little sugar, and nondairy creamer. It's rich and quite creamy. It also has a deep with more rustic profile of tablea. The bread was a store-bought baked bread roll with choco hazelnut filling na recently ko lang din nabili sa grocery store. It's the Crossini Choco Hazelnut. Perfect na siyang kainin as it is but to give it a bit of a crispy texture, I put it in the oven for a minute. Surprisingly, for the price, masarap yung hazelnut spread sa loob, it's sweet, na may pagka-nutty and chocolatey rin. Lastly, ang favorite chocolate dessert ko in the world - chocolate pudding na ready na kainin in as little as five minutes. It's the Jell-O Chocolate Instant Pudding Mix & Pie Filling. Super dali niya lang i-prepare, ihalo lang yung cold milk sa chocolate pudding mix, whisk, and allow to set lang ng ilang minuto. We actually love this pudding for a quick late night snack and as a simple dessert. It's thick and creamy, and has a classic milk chocolate flavor. You can get Crossini Choco Hazelnut (P96, 10pcs) and Jell-O Chocolate Instant Pudding Mix & Pie Filling (P109) in major supermarkets nationwide.

In the past, kapag nag-crave ako ng paborito kong kakanin, I just go out and I can easily find a stall that sells all sorts of these colourful delicacies that are deeply embedded in our culture and taste buds. Unfortunately, kung saan kami nakatira ngayon, kahit naglalako ng kakanin, madalang na lang. Having said that, it's good na napakarami ng businesses ngayon that offer their kakanin specialties online and can have them delivered right to our doorsteps, at isa na dyan ang Dear Sugar. Dear Sugar is a home of extra special desserts including mga kakanin and big chewy cookies with their own delectable twists. From their Cassava Aloha, Inutak Supreme, and Thai Ube Mango Sticky Rice which is a traditional Thai dessert with a Pinoy twist of ube. They also have huge chewy cookies in 4 classic flavors; Chococolate Chip, Triple Chocolate, S'mores, and Red Velvet. My personal favorites has got to be their Inutak Supreme na may ube flavored layers baked with red bean, langka, and macapuno. It's creamy, it's chewy, and it's just delicious. I also love their Thai Ube Mango Sticky Rice which is a creamy glutinous rice paired with sweet ripe mangoes, then drizzled with a yummy, thick coconut sauce. It's just one chewy, sweet and filling dessert. Their Signature Kakanin is available in Solo (P179-P199) and Party (P699-P795). You can also get their Premium Cookies in Solo (P105-P115), Box of 4 (P420-P460), and Box of 8 (P790-P870). Pre-order and same-day delivery available.

Sa ngayon, iba't ibang variations na ng ensaymada ang matitikman natin. From the most usual flavors like ube, caramel, and chocolate. Meron pa ngang mango and other fruit-flavored ones. Pero syempre, the best pa rin ang classic cheese ensaymada with lots of cheese on top. Just like these Vernon Pastries' Queso de Bola Ensaymada that we had yesterday for merienda. Not only they use real butter, they also grind their queso de bola with the rest of the cheese which gives their ensaymada a strongly flavored and finely textured powdered cheese topping. Dahil nga queso de bola or Edam cheese yung ginamit nila, I definitely got that sharp taste but it's soft, buttery, and delicious. Isa pang merienda treat that we tried from them were their Cheese Rolls that honestly is really addicting. Each roll is filled with a generous amount of cheese and I could tell that they didn't scrimp on the finest ingredients. They're remarkably soft, fluffy and cheesy, and has the perfect balance of buttery and sweetness. I also love that each ensaymada and cheese roll is wrapped neatly in the box so I can easily share them with my family and friends or I could even store them for several days. You may preorder before 6 PM any day, by 2 PM the next day, your Vernon Pastries' Queso de Bola Ensaymada (P450, Box of 6) and Vernon Pastries' Cheese Rolls (P300, Box of 6) will be ready for pickup or for delivery via Grab or Lalamove.

Yogurt is definitely one of our pantry staples. But as much as we love eating yogurt straight from the carton. I still like to look for recipes that would elevate its flavors or turn it into a delicious sweet lalo na with plain yogurt which has a bland flavor. Just like this 3-ingredient yogurt dessert recipe na naging instant favorite ng aking almost 13-year-old son. He likes to eat it as an after-school sweet snack. This is an easy recipe using plain yogurt layered with bananas and M&S Extremely Indulgent Millionaire's Mini Bites which are clusters of digestive and shortbread biscuits with crisped rice and caramel and covered in milk chocolate. I just alternately layered yogurt, bananas, and crumbled M&S Extremely Indulgent Millionaire's Mini Bites. This is a creamy and delicious yogurt dessert with a wonderful crunchy texture and extremely indulgent mini bites. Pwedeng kainin as a dessert or pwede rin as an afternoon snack. M&S Extremely Indulgent Millionaire's Mini Bites is available on their website at marksandspencer.com.ph for P430 (270g).

SWEET BEST X ALASKA CREMA | FOR A LOW-CALORIE, LOW-CARB, AND DIABETIC-FRIENDLY DESSERT RECIPE3/15/2023 I've always had a sweet tooth, pero naiintindihan ko rin na karamihan sa mga matatamis na pagkain that I consume contain high levels of sugar - regular sugar that has been linked to some of the biggest health challenges of our times. Luckily, marami ng available sa market na mga healthier alternatives to sugar. One of the brands that I highly recommend kung naghahanap kayo ng natural sweetener alternative that taste almost exactly like sugar but without the calories, no risk of tooth decay, no bitter aftertaste, no artificial flavorings, stomach-friendly, and can be used in beverages, baked goods, and everyday recipe. Plus, an excellent sweetener even for people with diabetes as it doesn’t raise blood sugar or insulin levels - introducing Sweet Best. Sweet Best offers natural sweeteners with their their own unique properties and benefits just like their Sweet Best Allulose Blend. I use this as a substitute in my dessert recipes. Kagaya na lang ng ginawa kong Sugar-Free Cheese Ice Cream. Bukod sa Sweet Best Allulose Blend, I also used one of our pantry staples Alaska Crema, grated cheese, and more cheese that I cut into cubes. This is definitely a creamy and delicious summer treat na hindi mo aakalaing walang nilagay na sugar. Sweet Best is available online and in Shopee and Lazada. Alaska Crema is available in all leading supermarkets and groceries nationwide.

This time though, instead of drizzling it with maple syrup, I used honey and the bananas are saging saba or sweet plantain that I ended up frying. This trio is definitely a next-level indulgent dessert lalo na with that smooth, rich, and flavorful Nuki's Strawberry Gelato. I also love the crispy sweet outsides and soft ripe plantain centers. You can have this for merienda or mas mae-enjoy nyo siyang kainin for dessert after a meal. NUKI GELATO | SMOOTHER, TASTIER, AND NATURALLY FLAVORED PURE ITALIAN MILK GOODNESS AND HEALTH3/3/2023 When I think about Italian dessert, the first thing that comes to mind is gelato. Actually, let me rephrase that. When I think about one of the best desserts for beating the heat— gelato has got to be it! Although gelato is popular all over the world, marami pa rin siguro sa atin ang hindi pamilyar kung ano ba talaga ang kaibahan nito sa regular na ice cream. From my understanding, gelato has more milk and less fat which gives it a denser texture, plus it's creamier, smoother, and silkier than ice cream. From the handful of places in the Metro that offer this frozen treat, isa ang Nuki Churros & Gelato sa rason kung bakit sobrang nagustuhan namin ang gelato over regular ice cream. Nuki Churros & Gelato is a dessert shop in SM Mall of Asia. They serve authentic, perfectly smooth gelato with no additives, no artificial flavours or colours, no nasties. Their Special flavors include Italian Chocolate, Cookies & Cream, Vanilla, and my son's favorite - Strawberry. It's creamy but it also remains light. But we were surprised and impressed by the burst of real strawberry flavour. They also have some Premium ones such as Salted Caramel, Pistachio, Cookie Dough, Hazelnut, Orange & Dark Chocolate, and my personal fave - Double Dark Chocolate. It has an intense, amazing chocolate flavor. It's smooth and not overwhelmingly sweet, but rich in taste. This is definitely a must-try flavor from them. You can drop by their store at SM MOA from 11am to 8pm or they also deliver within Metro Manila. For orders, message them at +63 906 295 2541.

COCINA JAVELLANA PREMIUM UBE HALAYA | 100% PURE, SCRUMPTIOUS, AND PREMIUM UBE HALAYA MADE WITH LOVE1/5/2023 I've said it many times, I have a very strong sweet tooth na hindi pwedeng walang dessert after every meal. Purple yam jam o mas kilala natin as ube halaya is one of those desserts na hindi ko man parating kinakain but definitely a family favorite! I like ube halaya with nice and thick texture that's rich but not overly sweet na nakakaumay na. Mas prefer ko rin kung may konting tiny bits of ube. This is why, when Cocina Javellana sent me their 100% pure and premium ube halaya, sobrang nagustuhan namin sya. Compared to others, their homemade product comes in a lighter shade of purple but delicious, creamy, and loaded with ube flavor. Plus, it has no extenders, no artificial flavoring, and no coloring. Kung naghahanap kayo ng versatile ingredient that you can use for your dessert recipes kagaya ng halo-halo, ice cream, ube cake, or a decadent dessert all on its own, you can order through their Instagram account at @cocinajavellana. It's also available for pick-up at their location in Makati. Price starts at P225 for 300g, P350 for 450g, and P700 for 1000g Party Tray.
