Mmmm, Dessert

I'm such a dessert junkie. I have a separate compartment in my stomach for dessert. Meals are not complete without dessert. Thanking Gigi for this yummy forward, reposted from another blog. Must try all...*slurp*

Strawberry Shortcake by Baby Yulo. "Mrs. Yulo from Forbes" is already a catchphrase among the well-heeled in Makati. Also known for her Turtle Pie but celebrated for her Strawberry Shortcake, this cake is close to eight inches high and is a sponge cake lightly spread with two layers of imported whipped cream and strawberry flecks. As a crowning touch, the top of the cake is decorated with a few large strawberries, definitely imported, definitely expensive at P1,300. Contact Number: 8124961/8108078


Polly's Chocolate Cake by Polly Garilao. It's a simple chocolate cake with a regular shiny icing and none of the frills and froufro associated with most cakes these days. Contact Number: 8247612

Nono's Chocolate Oblivionby Baba Ibazeta. Owner of the wildly successful Classic Confections, this cake is named after Baba's father. She dubs it as the "quintessential chocolate cake": layers of chocolate cake and ganache textured with walnut praline and dusted with cocoa powder.

Macaroons by Bizu. One of the two commercial establishments on this list with two (or is it three?) branches, these macaroons are just like those found in French patisseries. Light and unassuming, in a variety of flavors and colors, this is a light and unassuming dessert.
