Happiness in a Box - PaRaGeDeVan baked goodies

I am a certified sweet tooth, most specifically a chocoholic. I mean, who doesn't love chocolates and anything sweet right??! That is why when I came across PARAGEDEVAN - a home based pastry shop located in San Pedro, Laguna, I am more than elated to try on their upcoming Holiday packages. You can hover and click on the link to view their Facebook page showcasing all the pastries they offer - from bars to truffles, crinkles and even personalized fondant cakes. 

What is good about a home based pastry shop is that they are made with love and you are sure that they are fresh because they are only made just when you have placed an order. You are also assured that you get good quality for what you pay unlike in other bake shops were they already use pre-mixed or alternative ingredients. So what are we waiting for? Get ready to salivate as you browse the photos below. In this article, you'll see two boxes of goodies. The first one contains three types of bars while the other one contains truffles.

PACKAGING

One way to attract customers is through the packaging. And this definitely does not disappoint. These goodies come with golden boxes finished off with red ribbons perfect for the Holiday vibe. Just a tip, if you are still thinking on what you will give your officemates and loved ones this Christmas, you'll never go wrong with these as giveaways. Any recipient will surely be filled not just with smiles on their faces but on their tummies as well.

BARS

Caramel bars 

These bars are perfect for brewed coffee. The caramel infused bars are complemented by the cashew nuts toppings. You will definitely taste the freshness because it is moist and soft on the inside but crunchy on the outside plus it smells really good! You can finish it all in just one seating.

Choco Mallow bars

I may be a bit biased but this has got to be my favorite among the three. Because of course, it is chocolate flavored! What I also love about it is that it is gooey and it melts in your mouth. The chocolate coating above is just the right amount of dark that it complements the sweetness of the brownie base. Topping it off with marshmallows - it's just perfect!

Ube bars

I think Paragedevan made a good choice of incorporating something Filipino in the line up of their all-time favorite bars. Eating this will make you reminisce your childhood - a time when you would stay on your grandparent's house every vacation where you would eat Halo-Halo topped with Ube if it is summer or Ube flavored cake and ice cream just because the elders don't like their desserts too sweet. I can tell because that is what I felt after the first bite. So nostalgic! The same goes for these bars, it is not too sweet with just the perfect blend of Ube in it. 

A box contains 12 pcs of bars, 4 for each flavor. 

Ahhhhh - that gooey goodness!

TRUFFLES

Another product that I was able to try are their truffles. This is literally happiness rolled into that small ball of chocolate coated cocoa that feels like soft cake. A piece of heaven in your mouth, I must say! It has different toppings - white chocolate and sprinkles for that additional crunch. Based on personal experience, it is best consumed after refrigerating so that it will not fall off when you bite. But actually, why bite into half when you can consume all of it in just one go? =)

Fun fact: according to what I read online, these sweets does not contain truffle but was named after the same mushroom because of the resemblance of looks.

Same with the bars, each box contains 12 pieces of freshly baked truffles.

One ball of goodness and perfection.
