Hand in The Cookie Jar, Christmas Gift Idea #4

 

 

This is probably a Christmas gift that will make the giver truly stand out.  The Cookie Jar features delectable cookie mixes, with perfectly measured ingredients layered attractively in a see-through jar.  Fresh ingredients that make up cookie flavors are arranged beautifully and the aesthetic is a welcoming invite for the recipient to slip on the baking apron and whip out the mixing bowl.

 

 

The Cookie Jar is meant to make baking cookies a breeze.  The Cookie Jar (TCJ) provides the mix and all you need to do is add butter, eggs and vanilla… three ingredients you can easily get off the grocery shelf or your very own pantry and you’ll get soft and chewy cookies that you can instantly savor with your loved ones.

 

 

The Cookie Jar offers innovative variants such as Cranberry Walnut and Crispy Chocolate, as well as the beloved classics—Chocolate Chip, Triple Chocolate and Oatmeal Chocolate Chip.  Without the pressure of measuring different ingredients and getting the perfect mix, become a weekend baker and offer your family some heart warming chews of cookies.

 

 

Those who prefer getting their cookies already baked and prepared can opt to order homemade cookies in stylish packaging.

Gigi’s Custaroons, Christmas 2010 Giveaway Idea #3

 

If a macaroon tastes the same to you like the rest that’s out there in the market, then you haven’t tried Gigi’s Custaroons.  I have mentioned Gigi’s Custaroons in my Parvati post since it is also available there but Gigi’s creamy and smooth macaroons are also available via direct order at (0918) 828 2929.  And orders can be placed too through delivery at 87878.

 

PRICE LIST

 

Custaroons ORIGINAL 

 

Box of 4: P150.00

Box of 6: P170.00

Box of 12: P300.00

Box of 24: P550.00

 

 

Melt-in-your-mouth macaroons are as creamy and delectable as custards –extra smooth with mellowed sweetness and topped with a sheer sugar crust.  It’s similar to macaroons but with a smoother core that’s as luscious as custard.

 

 

Custaroons ORIGINAL Bite Size

 

Box of 15: P180.00

Box of 30: P260.00

Box of 60: P500.00

Box of 120: P900.00

 

 

This is the bite size version and it’s so pleasantly addicting.  The flavor is more concentrated in each custaroon.

 

CHEESE or ASSORTED

 

Box of 4: P170.00

Box of 6: P200.00

Box of 12: P350.00

Box of 24: P600.00

Box of 15: P200.00

Box of 30: P300.00

Box of 60: P580.00

Box of 120: P1000.00

 

 

POPPERS

Flavors include original and cheese

Tub of 22: P200.00

 

 

As mentioned previously, these are bite-sized custaroon balls coated with a premium chocolate powder concoction.  Think chocolate balls or chocolate items with champagne, almond, wafer, marshmallows, or other nuts inside but in Gigi’s baking case, it’s her famous custaroons inside. 

 

 

The poppers give you an initial welcome of semi-sweet and muted chocolate then a burst of the buttery custaroons and then a mix of both flavors.

 

Green Tea (Matcha) – NEW!  FRESH FROM THE OVEN!

Tub of 22: P320.00

 

Gigi’s Custaroons get a lot of orders for Christmas giveaways.  Better place in your order early.  They have a special edition of their packaging only for the Yuletide season! 🙂

Dragonfly Desserts: Christmas 2010 Giveaway Idea #2

 

Fran handed the Club boxes of Dragonfly Desserts last Friday.  What wonderful timing since I’ve been looking for ideas for Christmas giveaways to feature on the site.

 

Three’s a Charm 😉

 

The Dragonfly Desserts boxes are quite spiffy with their lovely logo in front and minimal classy lines of yellow and edged out in brown-colored sides.  It’s also secured in place with a gold band on parallel corners.  Inside are neatly packed dessert goodies.

 

Wicked Bites PHP 265 (Box of 18)

Wicked bites are essentially chocolate chili bites.  Almost melting chocolate that has a nice surprise of spiciness or kick on your tongue, nothing to be alarmed, heat level is quite tolerable even for non-spicy lovers.  The chocolate cups are like fudge mixtures with only a bit of crumbly texture.  I love how it quickly softens in your tongue and your mouth soaks up all the rich chocolate goodness.   

 

 

This is my favorite with its deep chocolate flavor and spicy kick from the chili. 

 

The Almond Cappuccino Bars PHP 195 (Per Half Box, approx. 10 pieces)

These coffee-flavored square bars have a top layer liberally covered with chocolate chips and almond flakes.   It has a good crunch on the outer layer but deliciously chewy inside with clear hint of cappuccino taste.  

 

 

My mom absolutely fell in love with these almond cappuccino bars.  She’s been eating it for days, before or after meals.  It agreed with her discriminating taste buds since she didn’t find it overly sweet but with just enough sweet tune peppered with coffee essence that appealed to her.

 

Carrot Cake (Price to follow)

Highly flavored with sweet carrots, the cake is light, moist and the perfect sweetness.

 

 

 

I will feature more Christmas giveaway ideas in the coming weeks.  Stay tuned.  For the meantime, why not call Dragonfly Desserts for a taste of their dessert offerings –If I were you, I’d surely get the wicked bites in my order list. 

 

 

If you like the Dragonfly Desserts products, your friends/families/family friends might like it too and that means, Christmas Giveaway Idea #2 is checked.

I have yet to buy a planner.  I’m thinking of switching from my BDJ Planner to this one.  As mentioned before, I love my BDJ 2008 planner but the 2009 I bought I barely used (only got to 3 months) since I find it a bit too cluttered.  The 2 other persons I gave it too also barely used it 🙁  I have yet to see the BDJ 2010 edition but this Luxe planner intrigues me a lot and I might just get one for 2010 🙂

Nike’s Manny Pacquiao Limited Apparel

 

Saturdays are meant for sleeping in until noon.  Not last Saturday though.  The day started early and we were at the Fort by 9AM. W-H-Y?

Last May 2, 2009, starting 12 noon, Manny Pacquiao fans and supporters get the chance to purchase Pacman’s limited apparel during this one day only event.  The most popular item in the Manny Pacquiao pop up store was the Nike Trainer 1, which retailed at PHP 5,209.  

The Manny Pacquiao pop-up store one-off event was held at Magnet Café Bonifacio High Street.  Magnet Café is 2 doors away from the Nike branch store at the Fort.  Limited pairs were also made available at Nike Park BHS the next day.

 

 

What we were interested in was the Manny Pacquiao windbreaker that has the Philippine flag design.  When we got there though, there were about 80 people in line already, who supposedly camped out just to get their hands on the items.  3 hours of waiting… and there was no guarantee that when the store opens at 12nn, there would be stocks left.  As much as we wanted to purchase the windrunners, I just didn’t have the patience to wait that long.    

 

Cheers to those who were able to buy what they went there for!!!  I’m green with envy.
