Yoh Froz Banawe

Ordered blueberry cheesecake frozen yogurt. The best part about this is that they'll give you a generous serving of Blueberry syrup and chunks of cheesecake! Though yogurt isn't as creamy or delicious as White Hat, you can't complain because this is cheaper than White Hat.

I didn't know this place can be a good tamabyan, it has good lighting, cozy couches, TV and wifi!

Rosemarie's French Macaron: Salted Caramel and Nutella

I was taking a stroll at Robinson's Magnolia while waiting for my scheduled Pacific Rim viewing when I chanced upon Rosemarie's French Macaron. I wanted to give a newly opened famous macaron place a try but this was tucked at the food bazaar at the food court, I thought this might be a hidden gem. 

And I found treasure! I tried the salted caramel and Nutella for Php35 a piece. It has a soft initial bite with a chewy core. It's something good to nibble on while you're resting your feet from the long walk. 

The salted caramel is not too sweet, the hint of salt balances out the sweetness which was perfect. I ate this pretty quickly as I was so excited to sink my teeth into one. The Nutella is my favorite! I really love Nutella and I'm biased towards this, what gives this a nice kick is that I can taste the nutty fragrant hazelnut flavor more than scooping a spoonful of Nutella from the jar. Perhaps they added real hazelnut to this? It's really good! I really enjoyed the two and I will try the other flavors when I go back. I even wanted to drink some hot tea with this, tea will bring out the macaron's flavor really well. Other macarons within the same price range are just too sweet that you can't distinguish the flavor anymore but this hidden gem is bang for the buck. 

Vanilla Cupcake Bakery's Red Velvet

Super love the red velvet cupcake! My previous favorite was Sonja's but it's too far away but lucky me! My new favorite Vanilla Cupcake Bakery has a branch in Trinoma. <3 div="">

Cupcake is moist and not too sweet. The cream cheese on top is simply the best! It has the right amount of sweet, salty and tangy taste that compliments well with the cupcake itself. Perfect!

What's Inside Sweet Magazine April 2010

I also got this from Taiwan, I think it's on sale for NT$275 because May 2010 already came out and it retails for NT$299.

These are the magazines I got from Taiwan with a freebie Jill Stuart Cafe bag

Sweet is really really thick compared to VoCE if you'll check the comparison

here's my little thumb also for comparison

So far this is my heaviest magazine with a whopping 470 pages (not including the cover flaps)

Sweet is mainly a fashion magazine with a bit of makeup laced on the sides

This is one of the few makeup section

Sheer dresses seem to be all the rage now in Taiwan, I heard dresses are accumulated in China, Korea and Hong Kong, of course you're better off to buy clothings from Korea and Hong Kong but China dresses aren't that bad if there's quality control.

I'm loving the white wedding dress with a delicate ribbon tied on the waist!

Footwear! I love the elf boots

MAC Lightful powder compact-

it's exclusively available in Asia, you won't even find this in maccosmetics.com!

I'm just not sure if MAC Philippines carries this permanent line (I think)

I haven't seen this yet but I'm sure it's not fake, it's in Sweet Magazine! ^.^

I love lace blouses and tunics

Floral prints seem to be the rage also

This might be my favorite tunic in the magazine

More bootsies! I love boots

The provide the comfort of rubber shoes but it looks more fashionable

More lace tunics

Has lace tunics and floral blouses arrived in our tiangges?

Tiangge is Philippine's version of night market-only that it operates whole day and night 

My cute Jill Stuart Cafe bag!<3

Jill Cafe has opened in Daimaru Department Store in Osaka, Japan

Here's the interior- it's not cushioned but it's okay 

There's a divider flap also so you could place small nifty things in.

The bag feels like towel cloth though =/ 

but what the heck, the magazine itself is a bargain at NT$275 considering how thick it is
