INDULGE in DULGIES

After the much-needed shopping in SM Delgado (yes, much needed but it hurt my purse >_<) I went to Dulgies, a cafe and desserts shop that sells homemade baked goodies, with a friend to do some catching up and also to fill the hungry belly :)

The classy facade, especially the candy pink signage of Dulgies just made my mouth water even more. So upon entering and finding myself inside a classy interior, I made a beeline towards their famous cakes on display. And yes, once again, I was like let loose in a candy shop. Heheh.

What caught my eye among their cake display was the chocolate cake named Heaven's Cake. Hmmmmm. Heaven means only pure bliss so naturally I ordered a slice of it.

Heaven's Cake, Php 75

I was so excited to have a taste of heaven, but it was disappointing. Although the cake is moist the icing and the filling were lacking in flavor. Sorry, but I haven't got a chance to enter heaven with this. Maybe next time I'll try the Red Velvet Cake.

The other pretty thing that caught my eyes were the delectable display of cupcakes. I thought these look more mouth-watering than the cakes. So I ordered the Dulce de Leche.

Dulce de Leche, around Php40-50 I think

These were fabulous! The vanilla cupcake was yummy and moist, and a surprise filling inside awaits the sweet tooth. Although in the end I find it a bit too sweet :)

Iced Latte, Php85

And what's desserts without an Iced Latte? (I mentioned that I'm not a coffee-lover, but I do like iced coffee blends as it masks the strong coffee taste.) Good thing it has lots of ice because the coffee was very strong. And good thing I had the cupcake because it masked the strong coffee flavor ^_^.

I thing I also liked about this day was the easy chair that was oh-so comfortable that you just want to sit and laze all day in it with a book in hand or just do people watching. (It's at the table at the right side when you enter the cafe). I wish I could brought it home!
