1st Philippine Chocolate and Ice Cream Show

It is more on the business side than about the showcase of different chocolates and ice creams per se, but I still got to enjoy and learn something new about the industry of chocolate and ice cream making at the 1st Philippine Chocolate and Ice Cream Show.

Typhoon Basyang couldn’t stop this mouth-watering event as chocolate and ice cream aficionados and retailers conquered World Trade Center in Pasay City to witness this gathering of pots and pans, flours and sugars for the country’s first ever chocolate and ice cream expo.

From nuts, to wines, to soda and soda makers, to the displays of their sweet products, to the stuff that you can use for parties, basically, everything was at this expo.

There were also some booths that gave free samples of their raw and finish products – the edible one of course! Hehehe.

I saw some interesting stuff in which most of them were available at a much discounted price. There were also some chocolates and ice creams or ice cream-like products that are for sale. And I got to taste a 50-Peso Ferrero gelato from Harry’s, yum!

There was also some lovely display of cakes in one booth that I really adored.

And at the far end of the huge space of WTC was the battle dome for the competing chefs for the 1st Philippine Chocolate and Ice Cream Show Chocolate Showpiece Competiton and Chocolate Cake Battle Royale.
