Thu, 10 Jun 2010 23:22:30 +0000

Powdered milk candies or in the local lingo polvoron can never be found anywhere in the world but here in the Philippines. Its one of the sweet delicacies you can take home for family and friends (pasalubong) who have been away from the country for a very long time and make them feel back at home again and bring memories of the old times.

As soon as I got home and put down my basket filled with polvoron from House of Polvoron(HOP) my sister and mom did not hesitate but finish the entire 20 pieces box of assorted flavored polvoron.

Yes , polvoron has flavors now, thanks to HOP, the first and only polvoron specialty store in the country today. They offer a wide range of polvoron variants including the Classic flavor, Pinipig, Cashew, Pili , Chocolate Cookies and Cream. An assorted box of 20 contains 5 pieces of four flavors (pinipig, cashew, pili and cookies and cream) and is sold at Php108.00 a box. Single variant is sold at Php99.00.

So far HOP remains a family business since it started in 1988 by MOTZ FOOD PRODUCTS (MFP) owned by Medardo “Ding” Caliwara and Rosalinda “Rose” Caliwara.

The first HOP mall cart opened in SM Megamall in 2003. At present, HOP has 4 mall branches located in SM Megamall (G/F Bldg A), Glorietta 4 Food Choices, Trinoma and Market Market. It is also distributed through major super markets such as SM Supermarket, Snack Exchange, Hypermarket, Savemore, Robinson’s Supermarket, Pioneer Center, Metro Gaisano in Metro Manila and in key cities in the provinces.

HOP is an expanding business, in fact they now cater to exporting the product, however they are not still open for franchising at the moment.

Super Yummy Tita Lynn’s Flavored Suman

Fri, 17 Jul 2009 02:54:36 +0000

Suman or rice cake wrapped in banana leaf, is one of the famous Filipino treat/delicacy. There are sweet and non-sweetened version of this rice cake. We usually have this for snack (meryenda) or even for breakfast “meryenda”. Perfect to pair with hot coffee or hot chocolate especially on a rainy day like today.
Suman is made of sticky rice and coco milk.

I spotted a perfect place to get the most yummiest Suman I’ve ever tasted so far. Tita Lynn’s Authentic Delicacies Flavored Suman can be found at one of the strings of restaurants and specialty food stores at the Sky Garden at SM City North EDSA in Quezon City.

They serve this Flavored SumanDue or suman to go value treat is sold at P35 or just $.7 cents. It’s a piece of suman cut into bite size and served with a delicious chocolate syrup as a dip.

This is perfect for someone who wants to try if the Tita Lynn’s suman is worth it and I say it’s something you don’t want to miss tasting!

Tita Lynn’s Authentic Delicacy serves dine-in and take-out. They also have hot chocolate and hot coffee served.

You can choose among the many flavored suman they have, they have the Original, Ube, Mango, CocoMas, Langka, and Chocolate Twirl.

They also sell Coffee Alamid for P560 per small bottle. This coffee alamid can only be found in the Philippines.

Tita Lynn’s flavored suman is perfect to take home or to bring to friends and relatives as pasalubong or going home gift. A dozen of suman is sold at P270 ($5.10) or P25 ($0.5) per piece.
