Kita Crackers

That’s Kita, and not the more well-known Fita!

Pasencia

Pacencia by Angie Pastor. For orders in Manila, 09369815475.

Small drop cookies that look sort of like Nilla (that’s short for vanilla) wafers. The name for this Filipino treat comes from the Spanish word paciencia, meaning “patience.”

Safari Cornicks

Filipino corn nuts… Compared to the American variety, cornick pieces are typically smaller and crispier. Garlic is the most common flavor. And the most popular brand of cornicks in the Philippines is arguably Boy Bawang (“Garlic Boy”). However, before there was the marketing-wise Boy Bawang, there was the humble Safari brand!

Ube-Macapuno Cake

Ube-macapuno cakes come in various shapes and sizes, but they all have it common the awesome pairing of two of the Philippines’ most favored flavors — ube (purple yam) and macapuno (special coconut). The cake in the photo is topped with macapuno strings!
