From Bacolod, With Love

My sister's dear friend came back from Bacolod and bought us lots of sweets. I just love our local delicacies; they can definitely compete in the international market.

Virgie's Homemade Products Mango Tart

This is the cutest little tart. It looks like a little empanada with mango filling inside.

Virgie's Homemade Products Caramel Tart
Gotta love that meringue toppings on these caramel boat tarts!

BongBong's Special Cheese Tart
My favorite. It has the perfect blend of sweet and salty in it - plus the meringue topping!

BongBong's Special Butter Scotch
These sweet little chewy, buttery bars are bound to tickle your taste buds.

BongBong's Special Barquillos in Strawberry
Too cute. It's not everyday you get to eat a pink barquillo.

What is your favorite local delicacy?

Love,
Helen
