Bacolod City is now officially our home! After our "epic journey" traveling by land, we have finally settled down. (Hooray!) More details on the road trip, here.
Now, our next stop is to explore this place since Masskara Festival will be celebrated in a few months specifically in October. I have decided to create a blog series featuring our latest discoveries in this beloved city.
I love sweets and I'm really crazy about desserts. So, my first featured post is all about Calea Pastries and Cakes.
Whenever you mention where's the best place to have cakes, locals would immediately mention this place. Known as "the home of the country's best cheesecakes", Calea Pastries and Cakes should be on top of your itinerary whenever you visit Bacolod.
They offer a wide selection of cheesecakes, imported chocolate cakes, refrigerator cakes, and muffins which will make you go gaga on what to choose.
Here are some of our favorites.

| Strawberry Cheesecake |

| Blueberry Cheesecake |

| Oreo Cheesecake |

| Chocolate Mousse |
I won't go over a detailed review of how they taste but I'll tell you. Everything is so good.
But can you guess what's the best thing about their cakes? They are super affordable. Each slice is around Php 95 only. They also offer coffee and blended drinks just like your typical coffee shop.
Calea has several branches in the city: Robinson's Place Bacolod, The District/ Ayala Northpoint, and the main one at Lacson Street.
So, next time you're in Bacolod, consider dropping by here. Just a heads up. This place is really popular among tourists so, it gets pretty crowded sometimes.
Calea has such amazing pastries! I love the Oreo Cheesecake. They are very particular about the quality of their cakes, so they don't branch out outside of Bacolod. They truly are artisan.
ReplyDeleteI totally agree. Their Oreo Cheesecake is the best. Thanks for visiting the blog, Chef Jay.
