Awesome two-some: New cakes from Tinapayan

Get hold of these two delectable cakes from Tinapayan as the bakeshop adds them in their list of mouth watering cake collection.

Caramel lovers would surely love this sugar based creation – simply Caramel Cake. Though the design reminds of some other cake (lol), at least this one has class and simple but fine craftsmanship. And to cater to the demand of most cake buyers, a space was specially provided to greet the occasion this cake is going to be part of.

The soft cake is smothered with generous amount of caramel in between and iced with another caramel based icing. The taste of the caramel was moderated so it won’t be overwhelming and the cake itself good – soft, spongy and appetizing.

The Mango Supreme cake really looks supreme in all aspects and angles too. Inspired by the Asian phenomenon in cake design, the simple ornamentation and superb handiwork makes the cake an eye catcher and truly deserves a second look.

Not only it is pleasing to the eyes but also tasted really good. Layers of soft vanilla-butter cake filled with creamy custard and luscious mangoes make a superb combination. The custard was almost perfect, not too sweet or overpowering just the right blend to bring out and complement the sweet and succulent mangoes.

Don’t just ogle at these cakes - have them for your guilty pleasure. Available on display at Tinapayan alongside Iloilo Supermart at The Atrium, Delgado, Jaro, Mandurriao and now open Villa-Arevalo.

Ultimate Ilonggo Favorite: KBL Kadyos, Baboy, Langka

K.B.L. or Kadyos, Baboy, Langka is the ultimate favorite dish of most Ilonggos. It is also one of the most missed native dishes as kadyos and the souring ingredient, batwan , are hard to find when outside of the Ilonggo region. Basically, it is boiled/stewed pork dish owing its "deliciousness" to the combination of the soft and tender pork, the tamed sourness of batwan and the malinamnam na sabaw . One of the "secrets" of the malinamnamn na sabaw , is the fact that the pork, whether just the plain meat or pata (hocks) are first grilled or broiled. This gives the broth a rather smoky taste that makes it more appetizing.. Learn how to make the Ilonggo dish KBL (Kadyos, Baboy, at Langka) with the recipe below. Ingredients 1 kilo Pata (pork hocks) or pork cubes, GRILLED and sliced into bite size pieces 1 unripe Jack fruit, cubed 2 cups pigeon pea (kadyos) 6-8 pieces batwan fruit (or tamarind powder) 1 piece por...

Easy Century Tuna Recipes

If you're looking for simple, easy and delicious Century Tuna recipes online, congratulations, you've found it right here! How about spicy tuna sisig or tuna sinigang ? Maybe stir fried tuna with pickles or just yang chow fried rice . I love Century Tuna from its flakes in oil variety, the spicier the better, but when I discovered the versatility of its solid variant, it became an obsession. At first I was just into the usual tested recipes; pasta and sandwich filling, but then it got simpler – I just eat it straight from the can! Usually with a piece of bread or an apple. I just add a few drops of vinegar to spice it up a bit. Then came the experiments. Yup I got tired of that habit that one day, I decided to test my skills in the kitchen. Serendipity, you might call it yet most of them turned into good recipes that I have shared now and then. Satisfying my Palabok cravings had me experiment on this recipe on the spot. With Century Tuna in lieu of the us...

Lauya nga Pata sang Baboy

It was a typical fiesta scene in a barrio that I got to taste this cholesteroliffic and delicious pork dish. I can still vividly remember that decades old gastronomic memory - very tender and almost fall of the bone pata, vivid orange sour and sticky broth, large chunks of unripe langka; all in one big large kaldero ! And it's been really a while since I've tried to recreate that taste memory and a few days ago, it was worth another try. Here's my simple recipe for Pata Lauya
