Tinapayan Bakeshop makes Valentine's Day even more special as it brings a collection of Heart Cakes for the season of love. They come in different flavours, colours, sizes and designs but one can opt for personalized heart cakes with words to express your thoughts. Having the familiar Valentine shape, the cakes will surely express thoughts that might be very difficult to say and most of the time, it speaks for it self.
Like most Tinapayan cakes, these Valentine specials have the Tinapayan signature design - simple yet with taste. Decorated the Asian style, I heard their cake designers trained in Vietnam, these cakes are among the most eye catching and beautifully designed anywhere in Iloilo.
The designs are nothing but uniform and monotonous that you have to get the right angles for the cake to come out best. Aside from providing space for personal greetings, these one side designs makes the cakes more appealing but looking nothing like the usual.
And given it's commercial appeal, it is among the best selling cakes any time of the year. As the insides of the cakes differ, what kind of flavour of the chiffon and the filling, it is up to you to mix and match. I prefer their plain chiffon with yema filling just like their all year round Peaches n Cream.
We had more than 20 cakes during the shoot with around seven of those themed for Valentine's Day. And the cake above is the personal favorite of the owner of Tinapayan design-wise as she love the love birds on the sides.
It all ended on a sweet note and all in one piece despite attempts of hidden nudges and shake ups to "accidentally" damage the cake so that we can have the chance to taste them - LOL. But it was one sweet and enjoyable afternoon with nothing but cakes and sweets all around us that Valentine came to us early - in the form of these beautiful and delicious hearts cakes from Tinapayan.
