Simply adding caramel to your drink can give it a different burst of sweetness. Make your caramel hot cocoa by pouring milk into a mug and heating it in the microwave until it’s hot.

Who loves Chocolate?

Well, everyone love it very much as I do. Recently, Goya held a night event, entitled "Celebrate Everyday with Goya".   This is to give thanks to their supporters and the media for continuously patronizing Goya and to recognize the efforts to uplift Goya's potential to even greater heights and be able to go head-to-head with competitors in terms of taste but at a wallet-friendly price level.


It was a fun-filled night of event with games and prizes, Kim Chiu the brand Ambassador joined and actively participated in all the games and other activities.  She even made a wacky pose together with the other media and she personally pick the wackiest pose with her. I really enjoyed the night and also what I got after.



Isn't amazing?  There were lots of Goya Chocolate variants were presented during the event. It was really a night with full of sweet pleasure that everyone feel the chocolate-y treats from Goya.

Love the taste of their chocolate, that I can personally afford to buy. One of my favorite is the Goya Dark on White Almonds, whole almonds covered in white and dark chocolate. I like the way they prepared the Dark Chocolate, it is not bitter, it is not too sweet and the crispiness (crunchiness) of almond is still there. The combination of dark and white is heavenly taste.


Isn't suprising?  It was like raining chocolates, everyone was surprised during the event and what's more surprising is the picture below...


Yes, I was personally surprise with what they have that night.  My name was called from the raffle and I won an Ipad Mini, isn't surprising right? And they are totally sweet, they know what the media and blogger needs for covering events and writing our stories. I am very thankful for that wonderful blessing. Thank you very much Goya Family.


Isn't it, Isn't it? We Filipinos sometimes just wait for the Padala of our relatives from abroad. That happened in my Family, we just waited for their packages or when they visit or when they goes back in the Philippines.  Chocolates are always included in their Pasalubong and it is the best "Pasalubong" ever. According to Goya General Manager, Josenilo Chincuanco, "With Goya, we now make delicious, world-class and premium-quality chocoates that are within their reach. They don't have to spend more or wait for their relatives' "padala" or "pasalubong" to enjoy delectable chocolates. It's now available right here in our country, the finest chocolate at a price they all can afford. That alone is worthy enough to celebrate". That's true.

Goya now offers wide-array of products from chocolates bars to dragees, chocolate covered-pretzel twists, chocolate wafers ad even chocolate spreads. All manufactured using Swiss chocolate-making technology.

So mommies, let your family have a bonding moment with variants of Goya Chocolates.

Chocolate is one of the most love food and flavor.  It seems that most of the cakes, ice creams and pastries are flavored with chocolate.  I, myself love chocolates very much and that's why I choose the CHOCOLATE MILK TEA variant of SIP Milk Tea to try.

Before anything else I would like to share what SIP Milk Tea means to me.

Steeply made to entice and refresh.
