The word Toblerone usually brings to mind triangular milk chocolate with nougat The chocolate itself is enough to bring smiles, but folks from Cake2Go had other things in mind. They deconstructed it and transformed the mini chocolate pyramids to a creamy circular temptation. Visually speaking, I’d say it would be a good bribe for an angry girlfriend (because for the nth time you said yes to the question “do I look fat …?”)
A quick slice revealed the insides of the ice-cream- like tri-layered cake. The bottom part is definitely chocolate, the last two layers I honestly don’t have any idea. But I am certain it was all delicious. I have to warn my (4) avid readers that this cake can change the way you look at things. One bite can transform the most loving and generous person to Mr. Scrooge. I myself was tempted to say “mine! mine and all mine!”, until I remembered my dear wife has the knife.
We also got a box of sugar free chocolate decadent cake for our insulin dependent loved ones. It does feel good that you are indulging on something that is a bit healthier, but the devil in me was saying that something was missing. Next time I’ll try the non -sugar -free version.

I once had a sensible colleague named Ed. We’ve been seatmates for a while and I’ve learned a few things from him. Before I tell you what I consider the best gem from the lot, let me emphasize that this guy is health conscious. He bikes everyday from Quezon City to the hills (or is that mountains) of Antipolo to prepare for competitions. He also watches closely what he eats.
Surprisingly, this came from him: “Don’t count the calories if it is FREE”. Ha! Words of wisdom from a sage! Guys, if you haven’t noticed yet, I’ve feature a few posts regarding restaurant promos – usually the buy one take one type. This post is different. The food was absolutely free and the host doesn’t expect you to do anything in return, except to enjoy.
Krispy Kreme has been around for a while and most of us enjoy the light cotton candy soft doughnuts the store serves. The original glazed donut is in itself a must have treat, but imagine the glaze mixed with chocolate and you’ll have the ultimate diet buster! The best news is Krispy Kreme is giving free samples together with their signature brewed coffee! All you have to do is sign up or wait for somebody to “glaze” you.
After we printed our email invites, my wife and I went to the nearest store. We handed our printouts to the cashier staff and waited gleefully. We passed time watching the Chocolate Glazed Doughnut come out of the magical steel contraption in the see through kitchen. Wouldn’t it be nice to have a similar device at home?
Our (free) orders arrived and we did not waste time. The strong brewed coffee was good and went well with its sweet partner. The choco doughnut definitely is a great makeover from the original glazed. Still soft as expected and it should not be missed by anybody who loves chocolate or who has a sweet tooth. If I could design my own heaven the clouds would be made of this.
I am not sure when the promo will end, but you might want to check the links below:
