I have said it before and I'll say I again cakes are my favorite. So my co worker and I went to Jacklyn a bakeshop near our office one fine morning after work.
That's me and Chy enjoying our sweet treats at the end of the day. To be honest, our work is never easy.. staying wide awake all night while others slumber.
This sweet spot is in Bonifacio street Mabolo. The place is modern minimalist at most. The lady server is kind and the foods are too salivating visually. I was especially drawn by this fish shaped bread.
Please forgive my bulging belly which is a side effect to all this food spree.
Happiness is always the effect to me when I bite intomy cakes. I don't know if it's the effect of the sugar rush or the excitement I get with every bite. Could it be the pleasure I get from the visual stimulation and the creativity it manifest?I don't know.
Close up our cakes look like this. Can you guess how much we paid? 3 to 4dollars a slice cheap yeah but we were shocked by their super expensive coffee. It's caffeine selection is comparable to Starbucks. Shocking to think it isn't an international brand as of the moment. But on the good side the pastry taste good.
So if ever your craving for some sucrose in your blood stream and unmindful of potential weight gain like me do give it a try. Oh by the way in case you need to order whole piece cake you'd have to do so a day ahead because as the cashier/server said" no preservative cakes peraonalized as such needs the time and skillful hands of their chef".Guess its a marketing line to most but here the dessert did measure up to our expectations.
