Chocolates and Creams: The Taste Of Dreams

I got the chance to meet the dream weavers Melody and Shela, who owns an upstart pastry business based here in Cagayan de Oro named Chocolates and Creams. Just a glimpse of their innovative and irresistible pastry designs would make you want to try them all!

Here's one, for example... when I saw these eggs, I had to grab one and had to taste it and I must say, it was devilishly good:

Melody and Shela both studied Food Technology in Xavier University – Ateneo de Cagayan and they told us that their chocolate-coated dreams are inspired from their personal travels. They wanted to apply their knowledge and produce cake creations that are one of a kind. And here they are making their dreams happen!

They have these fruitylicious versions - the Blueberry Explosion and the Strawberry Divine. I personally loved their Strawberry Divine! The strawberry and cream melts in your mouth!

...and this enticing Chocolate Madness' pleasurable chocolate feel, oh my, it couldn't be easily forgotten.

Check out this artisan cake craft - Heavenly Tiramisu! Their version of the popular Italian coffee-flavored dessert.

And this one-of-a-kind Caramel Cashew Cheesecake - which could be the only one of it's kind there is, is a dream creation that's totally blissful! This creation is also supporting our very own city's cashew product.

Bottom line. I encourage you to try them and I hope their extraordinary creations would blow your minds too!

Kinason (Philippine Clams) & Galunggong (Mackerel Scad)

Kinason is what we call this kind of clam in the picture below. It is usually cooked as a soup with Malunggay and spices. But here, Mom mixed it with Okra , Kamote Tops/Leaves , Sili Leaves/Saluyot (Jute Leaves) , Kamatis (Tomatoes) , Luy-a (Ginger) , Sibuyas Dahon (Scallion/Spring Onions) , Tanglad (Lemon Grass) and some salt to taste. When this soup is cooked, it'll be a bit thick/slimy looking because of the okra and saluyot leaves cooked together. Galunggong or Mackerel Scad (Decapterus macarellus) can grow up to a foot in length and has a dark somewhat oily but tasty flesh. This fish is an extremely common fish in Philippine waters and markets. It is usually cooked fried or grilled. Below is a picture of how it looks like when it's fried. This is what we had today :) The clams only worth 20 pesos, the galunggong 50 pesos, all the vegetables 30 pesos. So for a total of 100 pesos, this could feed about 5 people for 2-3meals depending on their consumption :) We'v
