Magnum Manila is Back @ SM Mall of Asia
January 14th, 2016 — Casual, Cravings, Dessert, Restaurants, Sweet Shops
They came, they left for a while, and now they’re back!
The “Make Your Own Magnum” craze returns in a new location. From the former SM Aura Premier mall in Taguig, their new location since Dec 19, 2015 is at the 2nd floor of the Mall Atirum in SM Mall of Asia, Pasay City. Located at the center of the air-conditioned mall, the new Magnum Manila Pop-up Store can be found in front of Uniqlo MOA and across the Zara boutique.
Magnum Manila MOA
Pleasure Seekers alert! Your favorite Belgian chocolate indulgence returns as Magnum‘s signature ice cream bars makes a come-back with the latest White Almond which was launched a few months ago.
Keeping true to the pop-up concept of every café, Magnum Manila now focuses on the Magnum-My-Way concept and lets go of the restaurant concept like it had in the previous SM Aura flagship store. Moreover, it will be open for a limited time only, maybe a year or so, give or take a few months. But I believe it will stay, at the very least, until the next holiday season of Dec 2016 or until Philippine Summer 2017.
How to Make Your Own Magnum
Each Make Your Own Magnum experience costs P120 including the signature Magnum bar dipped in Belgian chocolate plus three of your choice toppings from a wife array of 18 options.
- Step 1: At the counter, Pleasure Seekers select a “naked†Magnum bar of silky Vanilla or rich Chocolate ice cream, as well as a chocolate coat amongst white, milk, or dark chocolate.
- Step 2: Next, sprinkle your now-coated Magnum bar with toppings that range from classic toppings that you’d expect to compliment any ice cream like marshmallows or crunch balls, special toppings that are a little more luxurious like freeze dried raspberries or pistachios, or experimental toppings that are more adventurous like chili flakes or sea salt flakes. You should not miss our very own “Pastillas” this season!
- Step 3: Finally, you drizzle your creation with a choice of white, milk, or dark chocolate, and the store’s Pleasure Maker will top off your creation with an “M” coin. The finished product, a cold Belgian chocolate masterpiece of your own dreaming, is yours to enjoy.
Magnum Manila MOA is a joint project with Selecta and FoodAsia Corp who will be handling the operations and management of the store.
Magnum Manila Promotions
Aside from the changing 18 dynamic and continually evolving choices of toppings, Magnum Manila MOA will be hosting its first ever #MagnumPleasureHour where consumers have the chance to indulge in a free Make Your Own Magnum bar.
This is set for the next three Fridays and Saturdays – January 22 & 23, January 29 & 30, and February 5 & 6!
All they need to do is come to the Magnum Manila MOA store between 6 to 7 PM and share the promo photo found on @Magnum_PH twitter and Instagram to claim their prize. On top of all these, pleasure seekers can look forward to seeing their favorite Magnum Ambassadors drop by the store.

November 3rd, 2015 — Cravings, Dessert, New Brews
I love polvoron since I was a kid, until now actually even in my 30s. 🙂 And I can still remember that Goldilocks Bakeshop was one of the few brands which is known for their very good polvoron. My favorite then was the classic big Goldilocks wrapped in transparent yellow wrappers.
