Just Before You Leave Baguio...


The Good Shepherd nuns generously shares their treats to the public through a humble goodie-shop within the convent's lot. This is a must-stop-by-to-buy-at item in any Baguio lover's itinerary.

Their ube jam is the ultimate diet breaker, and the last time I bought a medium sized jar, it cost me about P265. That's more than a year ago though, so it must be close to P300 now. Will update the price after my Panagbenga 2009 holiday for those who plan to expand their waistlines by summer!

You have to get your Baguio pasalubongs from this place, because those who sell the same brand in other places automatically add around P30 to the base price.

Of course, the staple strawberry jam can be found here, a little cheaper than the ube if I remember right.. Alhough strawberry jam and strawberry preserves are two different things, the latter having a lot of strawberry chunks mixed in. They also have baked delights like cookies, and for the figure conscious--- they have pickled veggies which are perrrrfect for all grilled items or just on their own. That jar cost me about Php180 back then.
