Waking up to the “dark ages” (no phone coverage, no electricity, no internet) because of Basyang somehow brought us down, so outgoing art director Arlene and I decided to check out the 1st Philippine Chocolate and Ice Cream Show at the World Trade Center, Pasay City to cheer us up.
For a measly 100-peso entrance fee, you’ll be able to get to chocolate and ice cream heaven! Gelato is my happy food, so I was thrilled when I saw these yummy flavors.
And and and, we enjoyed a cup for P50!
So we went around to check on the other exhibits and look at what we found, lovely frying pans and kitchenware that will surely prep up your kitchen! (Prices available at the exhibit booth)
Cakes by Chef Peachy Juban, who recently bagged a gold at the prestigious Food and Hotel Asia Singapore, were also showcased in the event.
We were also lucky to witness the third batch of the Chocolate Cake Battle Royale. Though still unfinished, this sure looks yum!
Then the judging of the third batch followed. Here, Chef Penk Ching of The Pastry Bin (she came up with Juday and Ryan Agoncillo’s wedding cake) takes a close look at this entry.
Here are the cakes from the previous batches.
And just before we left, we were given free Pistachio gelato by Technolux. You have to check out their Ice Cream machine!
Go experience your own taste of heaven! July 16, Friday is the last day Philippine Chocolate and Ice Cream Show so you better catch it before its gone. ![]()

Finally! I found photos from the 1st Phil. Chocolate and Ice Cream show!
We were supposed to go to this event, but, unfortunately, there were some major change of plans. *sigh*
Thanks for sharing the photos!
