Photoblog - Day 194, Oct 20, 2010

Yummm!

By themselves, each food item is a very tasty dessert - the white items are Macapuno (preserved, sweetened coconut meat), while the yellowish item with a near burned caramel top is Leche Flan (sweetened milk pudding?). Both are well known in the Philippines, and both can be overwhelmingly sweet at times.

Fortunately, these two are not - even when placed side-by-side. Why so? For starters, these two were home made (not my home, though) and I was just lucky to be a recipient of such wonderful cooking. Believe me, these two are temptations to anyone with a sweet tooth; myself included, but I can honestly say that I have been winning the EQ war with this one - the bad part? Others at home are not so controlling, so unless I decide to eat these sooner (like this evening) I may very well end up not being able to taste them.

So as you can see, I took matters into hand last night as barbie was getting herself some. At least, I got to taste this combination... now if I cna only find some Ube (taro-flavored) ice cream...
