Parvati, Manila’s Best Kept Desserts

 

 

There is a place where the mouth of the river meets the sea… where the moon kisses the sun discreetly… where hubby meets wife halfway… where a corner encounters a new street … darkness greets daylight… creation meets its creator.

 

And there’s also a special place where home-bakers and dessert lovers meet.  A momentary rendezvous at Parvati is where it’s at.  Parvati is located at the Mindanao Lobby of Trinoma and they have Manila’s best kept desserts. 

 

 

Parvati houses 51 dessert products from various home-bakers and suppliers from all over the Metro.  Storage facility is modern, organized and labeled well, with photographs even, which makes it quite efficient to look around for your choice of dessert that particular day.

 

The smorgasbord of desserts and home-baked products stretch from frozen items to cold treats to room-temp pastries and baked goodies. 

 

 

On the Table

 

Triple Decker Chocolate Cheesecake

By: Kusina Torre Desserts and Pastries

Price: (Per Square) PHP 130 (5 Inches) PHP 600 (7 Inches) PHP 1,100 (9 Inches) PHP 2K (9×13 Inches) PHP 2,500

 

 

The Triple Decker Chocolate Cheesecake is compact cheesecake between two layers of chocolate cake.  The top layer consists of the glossy chocolate tier that’s rich and lush that converges delightfully with the light succulent cheesecake accompanied with premium graham-type of crust and ends with a bottom tier of another chocolate port.  It is outstandingly one of the bestsellers at Parvati and fairly so with its multi-layer of luxuriant sweet and partially sharp flavors.

 

 

Coffee Indulgence

By: M Cheesecake and Pastries

Price: (Slice) PHP 120 (Whole) PHP 600

 

 

Cappuccino Cheesecake – most take their cheesecake with coffee but with the Coffee Indulgence cake, you can actually have both in a bite.  Indulge in the semi-bitter coffee taste mixed in your loaded cheesecake.

 

 

Mochi Ice Cream

By: Dezato Mochi

Price: (Box of 6) PHP 275

 

 

Mochi Ice Cream is creamy ice cream wrapped in fluffy sticky rice dough (that’s popular in Japan).  These are supposedly best eaten with your fingers.  The sticky rice dough is not that heavy and wonderfully encases the chilled ice cream.  Comes in 6 mouthwatering variants: Chocolate, Green Tea, Strawberry, Mango, Vanilla and Coffee

 

 

Custaroons –Original or Cheese

By: Gigi’s Custaroons

Price:      (Regular Box of 4) PHP 170 (Regular Box of 12) PHP 350

(Bite Size Box of 15) PHP 200 (Bite Size Box of 30) PHP 300

 

 

I’m sure Gigi’s Custaroons are not new to foodies who have time and again ordered these smooth, creamy, melt-in-your-mouth custards topped with a chewy buttery crust.  It’s like macaroons but with a smoother core that’s as luscious as custard –thus dubbed the name custaroons.  So unbelievably moist, it’s the best custard hyphenated macaroons in town.

 

 

Custaroons Poppers

By: Gigi’s Custaroons

Price: (Tub of 22 Original) PHP 200 (Tub of Green Tea) PHP 330 (Tub of Coffee) PHP 330

 

 

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 case, it’s her famous custaroons inside.  You won’t get to taste this anywhere else.

 

 

Blueberry Panna Cotta

By: Christina’s Kitchen

Price: (Blueberry 1’s) PHP 80 (Blueberry 4’s) PHP 320

 

 

The Italian cream dessert that’s blueberry-flavored with topping of sweet and tarty blueberries on top.  It’s very light and not overly sweet.  It can also serve as a palate cleanser.

Mom Tina’s

 

I love the comfort of home-cooked meals. You get exactly that feeling when you eat at Mom and Tina’s.  

 

Very busy and lively, this sparkling clean little pastry café is known for its Toblerone walnut desserts and simple yet satisfying meals with friendly service. Delicate wooden fixtures and a display cabinet with little ceramic houses are the immediate interior.

 

The usual suspects in the menu are Chicken Caesar Salad (P105), Spinach Lasagna (P128), Shepherd’s Pie (P128), Paella Valenciana (P160) and White Toblerone Walnut Torte (P115).

 

Paella

 

 

If you love cheese and savory dishes, one can never go wrong with their Spinach Lasagna and Paella Valenciana. The former is smothered generously with melted cheese while the pasta is evenly layered with spinach and ground beef. It is only served in a small ceramic container, which is good for one. For P128, it’s not a bad treat. The Paella on the other hand is good for a hungry one or a sharing two. I only have to quip that they don’t serve the Paella with lemon, which almost made a dent in the whole Paella experience, but with reasonable price, things like this is allowed to be overlooked.  

 

Be homebound with a scrumptious meal at Mom and Tina’s.
