@ Krispy Kreme in SM Center Pasig

NomNom Club just had a food trip over the last weekend in Pasig City. For most, the mention of Pasig is usually equated with Barangay Kapitolyo as a foodies’ haven. But SM Center Pasig, along the corner of Julia Vargas and E.Rodriguez Jr., is adding to the foodie options of residents and customers in the area.

For those who haven’t heard it yet, there is an ongoing foodie craze which originated from Dominique Ansel in New York a few months ago and has now hit Philippine shores – Cronuts, a wordplay of ‘croissant‘ and ‘doughtnuts‘.

Krispy Kreme Baked Creations

Krispy Kreme seemingly gave in to peer pressure as the cravings for cronuts has reached hyped levels. We first heard about it from WildFlour Cafe in BGC. Dunkin’ Donuts, Chatime, InterContinental Manila, and Dolcelatte, among others, immediately followed.

The Hot Light Girl came up with their own Krispy Kroissant released as their newest Baked Creations member. The Krispy Kroissant joins the sweetness of croissant and the fancy flavors of doughnuts / donuts.

They started serving it just today – August 15, 2013 – in all Luzon-based Krispy Kreme branches. Similar to other restaurants offering cronuts, it is available only within a limited time frame of 10am to 2pm.

4 Variants of the Krispy Kroissants: Apple Cinnamon (lower left), Chocolate (middle), Vanilla Cream (lower right), and Strawberry (the red one).

Krispy Kreme Cronut Craze!

Krispy Kreme Cronut Flavors

The Baked Creation Krispy Kroissant comes in 4 flavorful variants including the Apple Cinnamon with caramelized cinnamon sugar.

The second one is the Chocolate variant. It is topped with Belgian Chocolate ganache which would surely tickle the fancy of chocolate lovers.

The other two cronut flavors are Strawberry and my favorite – the Vanilla Cream.

I surmise that the Vanilla Cream is somehow the equivalent of the Original Glaze as it is also dipped in sugar glaze.

Furthermore,  it is complemented by the sumptuous vanilla cream in the middle in character of the famous cronuts.

After years of waiting, Krispy Kreme lovers from the south of Metro Manila do not have to travel north just to get their fix of Krispy Kreme original glazed doughnuts and coffee. They now have their own located near the Bridgeway of Filinvest Festival Mall in Alabang (south of Metro Manila).

Krispy Kreme Opens Filinvest Festival Mall in Alabang South

Krispy Kreme Alabang

NomNom Club was invited for its grand launch last September 2, 2011, a day before its public store opening.

The night started with good food and good friends just right outside the store. With minimal lights pending the scheduled launch, a short program led by host Patty Laurel brightened up the night.

One of the KK winner of one-year supply of Krispy Kreme doughnuts is a baby! 🙂

After a brief speech, Krispy Kreme executives pressed the symbolic green button altogether to signal the grand opening of its 24th branch in the Philippines. This triggered the opening of the lights, the store, and the Krispy Kreme HotLight!

Guests were also given half-dozen original glazed doughnuts to enjoy or take home.

“Krispy Kreme is a brand that Filipinos love…we are very happy to finally open our first store in the South with the intent of sharing the delectable Krispy Kreme experience across the nation,“says Mark Gamboa, Krispy Kreme Philippines Marketing Manager.

Noy-Bayani

NoyNoy Aquino

I have also decided to share my choice for president in the person of Benigno “Noynoy” Aquino III. In this election, I am giving my vote to the one I believe can make a true change in the government. I decided to choose a candidate who is criticized to lack experience and background but is dedicated to eliminating corruption and has a clear conscience.

Among all the presidentiables, I believe he is the one who will do what he said and fulfill with his best what he promised.

Bayani Fernando

I choose Bayani Fernando for the capabilites he has shown and the changes and improvements he has implemented in Marikina City and the MMDA. A man of action with ideals for a disciplined public society.

For the senatoriables, my longlist include Ople, Hontiveros, Acosta, Cayetano, Guingona, Drilon, Defensor–Santiago, Roco, De Venecia, Osmena (Serge), Tamano, Ocampo (Satur), Lim, Pimentel, and Enrile. Three more needs to be dropped. I still have the weekend to think it through. 🙂

The online community is encouraged to use the #juanvote hashtag for their reports and social comments on May 10, 2010.
