Goodies from Goldilocks!

Whenever I drop by San Francisco, Cindy never fails to get me another one of my US favourite.

Goldilocks French Sponge Cake - Mamon
These wonderful French Sponge Cake - Mamon from Goldilocks

Goldilocks French Sponge Cake - Mamon
It's an eggy sponge cake except that's it more buttery and has a moist base. Why I like it that much? It's really the moist base that makes it one of the things that make me go "Mmmmm...." hahaha...

Cassava Bibingka
This time round, she got me something new - Cassava Bibingka. There was no ingredients breakdown on the container it came in. It's similar to the tapioca kuih we have back in Malaysia but this seem to have some condensed milk on it, making it a rather sweet but delightful sticky treat. Google it and one will find several versions.

Goldilocks started in Philippines back in 1966. Fast forward to today, it has 18 stores in US and Canada selling not only pastries but also Filipino cuisine....will they ever come to Malaysia??? I can only hope :o) Meanwhile I can only get these whenever I come over to San Francisco. Thanks Cindy!
