The first time I made this it was a failure. I used the wrong flour, I kinda bomb out tho. But doesn't mean I have to give up with my experimentation. Remember what they always said, try and try until you succeed, definitely I did for the second time. SAPIN - SAPIN is one of the native Filipino cuisine. A very colorful layered delicious dessert topped with LATIK or toasted coconut flakes. This dessert is made of glutinous rice, coconut milk and sugar.

Buko pandan salad is a dessert consisting of pandan flavored gelatin and shredded young coconut mixed with cream and sweetened milk. You can add vanilla Ice cream when served with your guest. I made this dessert when I catered Cat and Tom wedding and it was a hit. So simple yet delicious.
Cheesecake flan is denser version of regular Leche Flan. Why is more denser? Ingredients is similar to the Leche Flan the only difference is, I added cream cheese, Milk, salt, egg whites and sugar. Baked 350 degrees in water bathed for 1 hour and 45 minutes. Once is done let it cool for 30 minutes then put in refrigerator for 3 hours our overnight to chill. Long process but I guaranteed this will satisfy your sweet craving. My family and friends love this.
Soft and Light as Air Japanese Cheesecake. The first time I make this, I almost gave up. But I I did not. I made this so many time because it was my family's most favorite dessert. So soft like pillow and light as air, diet - friendly Japanese Cheesecake delivers a delicious rich flavor or cream cheese with a subtle tanginess of lemon that wont compromise your diet. Sometimes is good to challenge ourselves for something that we are not familiar with. Believe it, and it bring out the best of us. As they said practice make perfect.

Steamed for 45 minutes to 1 hour.
This delicious BIBINGKA is my mom's recipe. I usually make this for potluck or any party I'm attending. My family and friends talked about all the time how delicious it is. Thanks to my loving mother by sharing her recipe to me. Believe it or not everytime I called her and asked her how to make this or that (particularly in Filipino kakanin) ? Her answer to me "I thought you're a culinary graduate" Chelle! She definitely has a sense of humor. And I love her to death.

This dessert or merienda are so simple to make and cook. In a bowl put the sweet rice glutinous flour add water ( the texture should like dough not sticky or wet) add fresh grated coconut or sweeten shredded coconut from store. Form the dough like gold ball size deep fried till light golden brown and drizzled with caramel sauce. Masarap ikape sa umaga. My mom and my late grandmother used brown sugar & water to make a caramel sauce (so simple) for mine I give it a little twist.
Fruit Tart - I made this for my final on Intro to Baking and Pastry. Believe or not I have to practice at home to make sure I got perfect the day of my final. As they said practice makes perfect. The filling is made of pastry cream topped with green apples and kumquats.
Palitaw is very simple yet super delicious dessert or merienda. The Palitaw means "floating" because it rise above the boiling water once the dough is cook. Dipped or coated in fresh grated coconut (or use the sweetened shredded coconut from store), roasted sesame seeds (optional) and sprinkle with granulated sugar. I learned to make this from my mom and my late grandmother definitely brings back my childhood memories.
