I was curious about this new La Paz Bakery since it's not among the familiar ones. Got these few items for some taste tests.
Ensaymada monggo
Half-moon cookie and hopia "baboy"
Bulakenya
Halfmoon cookie. One of my childhood favorites. Shaped like a moon but more of a quarter moonrather than what is is called. A hard yet crumbly cookie that is sweet, salty and starchy on first bite.
Bulakenya. I have no idea why it's called a such. Its chiffon like bread filled with a an artificially coloured and flavoured cornstach similar to pineapple pies.
Monggo Ensaymada. A staple in almost all bakeries but this one's got my attention since it was big and looked very enticing. Hopia baboy. Another staple in bakeries around the country is hopia monggo. Not necessarily "baboy" but another starchy, sticky and semi sweet filling
