The recently concluded Yummy Big Baon Blowout was a delicious gathering of a number of Manila’s tasty products and delectable finds.

Here are a number of our delicious discoveries during the event held at the Trinoma Activity Center last 23 May, 2015:

  • Theo And Philo Chocolates ~ I thought this beautiful spread is enough to tell you how delicious the chocolate products from Theo and Philo are. They are also perfect as spreads and as ready snacks for those with sweet tooth. And what’s even better is that they are 100% Philippine made! foodie events, food events, foodie adventures, foodie finds
  • The Juice Barista ~ offers a wide variety of healthy and refreshing blended smoothie and cold-pressed juice. They have a big selection of yummy juices and smoothies to choose from, perfect for one hot sunny day and also ideal to include in our little ones’ baon for school.

These are but a few of the delicious stuff we tried out at the Yummy Big Baon Blowout. A number of other specialties and delicacies were also on display. Some are laid out on colorful round and square tablecloth and wrapped in very interesting packages, too. I shall be writing another post about our Yummy Big Baon Blowout experience on my mum blog, and I hope you check it out, too, once it is up.
