Orange Tuesdays: Ice Castle

Here’s my Orange entry for this week’s Orange Tuesdays. Some photos that I took when we had our refreshments at Ice Castle.

Ice Castle is a small ice cream shop here in Cagayan de Oro City where you’ll find a delectable array of sundaes, ice cream scoops, milkshakes, and other creamy treats. They also serve the quintessential Filipino desserts like this yummy halo-halo, as well as a few lunch meals and hot noodles.

So if ever you find yourself in our lovely city and the hot weather is getting into you, you can always treat yourself to something cold and creamy at Ice Castle.

Melts in your Mouth, Not in your Hands

Who doesn’t love M&M’s chocolate candies? of course most of us loves it! Although I don’t eat it that much because its quite expensive here, but I love to grab it at the store specially when I have some extra budget to buy. ^_^

In my mom’s case she always  have her M&M candies . She loves to eat it almost everyday. It serves as her sweet dessert. Photo above is her favorite peanut flavored M&M chocolate candies.

According to its history, it was being introduced as a treat for the military and it became a popular candy for everyone to enjoy. The name is actually an abbreviation for their creators and it became the “official candy of the Millennium,” because MM means “2000″ in Roman numerals.

Still My Favorite Chocolate Since Childhood

Curly tops chocolate is one of my favorites since childhood and its very popular here in the Philippines. Even though there were a lot of competition, the name Curly Tops is still well known.

I remember seeing my self as a child because of its loving taste, texture and yumminess of Curly Tops chocolate. I will prefer to eat this chocolate over the expensive brands. This is a great Filipino made chocolate that we can be truly proud of!

Birthday Cakes for Men

Birthday cakes for adults specially for men is something which is not very easy to find at the bakery cakes. I can attest to that because yesterday Ive been looking for a birthday cake for my brother in law which serves as my surprise gift for him. But I just couldn’t find a unique masculine looking cake that would best fit his personality. Most cakes available at the cake store are for women and children. There are some blue colored simple cakes but it was decorated with flowers. There isn’t a lot to choose from a masculine-themed cakes. 

Since I can’t find a unique men’s birthday cake yesterday, I have no  other choice so I selected and bought this fruity choco cake from Goldilocks. I was in a hurry and its too late if I’m going to order a custom-made cake. Hopefully next time I’m gonna order a customized cake and choose a more masculine theme ones that would best represent his interests and hobbies.
