Alpenliebe Candy: smooth, silky & creamy

As a blogger, am lucky enough to be a recipient of home deliveries – from fried chicken to J.Co Donuts and even household products. There are rare times, however, when the courier comes in full costume. I remember one time when my youngest daughter Lucia got scared of Incredible Hulk.A few weeks ago, there was a tall & pretty girl in Swiss costume who arrived at the gate carrying a wooden bucket.I was unfortunately in the office. Home alone (again) were Lucia and her yaya-since-birth.

Alpenliebe delivery

Our perky toddler chirped: “what’s that, what’s that?”

And the smiling, tall girl replied: “Hello there, we’re from Alpenliebe and we’re here to deliver some candies.”

I should have been there that moment because for sure, my child’s face lit up. She loves her sweets, never mind that this mom always worries about the beating her baby teeth will get. She probably thought right then that the lovely Alpenliebe girl was her fairy godmother :)

Alpenliebe

From Perfetti Van Melle – the maker of popular sweets like Chupa Chups, Mentos and Fruittella – comes now Alpenliebe Candy which recalls to mind the creamy milk reminiscent of the mountains and snowy alps of Europe. It has a very smooth and silky finish and comes in two flavors: Caramel and Strawberry.A bag is filled with 50 candies, making it good enough for sharing with friends and family.

Our little girl certainly loved her candies. Thank you Van Melle!

J.Co Donuts Eastwood branch is open 24/7

Am pleased to have seen J.Co Donuts grow – from the time it was first launched to the phenomenal success it is enjoying in less than a year of operation. It seems this donut has captured the Filipino palate because of their tempting gourmet flavors, delicious taste and the fact that it’s not too sweet.

j.co eastwood

Two weeks ago, J.Co opened their latest branch in Eastwood City. Their largest branch so far is also open 24 hours, solving the problem of those who have to brave the lines during peak hours. Eastwood is the latest addition to the growing chain of J.Co donuts branches in the Philippines which now include SM Megamall, SM Mall of Asia, Greenbelt 2, Alabang Town Center, SM Fairview and Trinoma Mall.

J.CO is a proudly Asian brand, tracing its roots to Jakarta, Indonesia where Mr. Johnny Andrean opened a cozy donut shop in 2005. Aside from its round-shaped desserts, J.Co is also known for its frozen yoghurt treats and coffee beverages, served hot or cold.

We will be having our very own giveaway of J.Co Donuts in this blog soon….watch out for it! ;)
