M Bakery Now Offers
Cupcake Icing Classes

Learn to ice your cupcakes like a pro at M Bakery

IF you think those cupcakes made and sold by M Bakery look absolutely perfect, now you can learn how to ice those cupcakes and make your own baked goodies look as good as the professionally iced ones by Manila’s latest hit bakeshop from New York City.

M Bakery will begin offering special cupcake icing classes with a hands-on, in-store experience beginning August 17, 2019. So it will now share the love for sweet things not just by offering freshly baked desserts but also by teaching interested people how to make its signature swirl icing.

It isn’t easy, but it’s worth the long hours of practice

These introductory cupcake icing classes will be two-hour sessions held every third Saturday of the month and will accept 5 to 10 participants per class. Students will learn the intricate art of designing cupcakes, beginning with flat top icing, inscription making and piped flower designing to making filled cupcakes. These are now very popular in gender reveal parties, debuts and other themed parties.

While M Bakery’s signature swirl used to be a trade secret, the bakeshop brand will now share the coveted technique that has been trademarked in the United States back in 2012 so that no other commercial bakeshop or cake shop can use the same. It takes over 40 hours of practice to perfect, so students enrolling in the class are really lucky to be able to learn it.

Students enrolled in each class will take home six cupcakes that they decorate during class.

Aside from the scheduled Saturday cupcake icing classes at Php2,500 per participant, M Bakery also offers special scheduled classes for families, friends and even companies who want their employees to participate in a cupcake icing class for team-building. Discounted rates shall be given for group reservations with at least 10 participants.

For inquiries or reservations, visit M Bakery at the Lower Ground Floor, Unit #23, 5th Ave. corner 28th St., One Bonifacio High Street Mall, Bonifacio Global City, or call (+632) 847-9829 or (+63) 917-6331718.

Ilonggo Flavors on Spotlight
at Marco Polo Ortigas Manila

Marco Polo Ortigas Manila’s Kaon ‘Ta sa Cucina highlights the best of Ilonggo cuisine

ILONGGO flavors take center stage at Marco Polo Ortigas Manila’s Cucina this August.

As part of its commitment to feature local flavors on a global level, the restaurant features the best of Ilonggo cuisine, including some of the province’s favorite dishes such as La Paz Batchoy, Valenciana, KBL (Kadyos, Baboy at Langka), and Laswang Utan (vegetable dish similar to dinengdeng and bulanglang).

KBL (Kadyos, Baboy at Langka)

Laswang Utan na may Baboy at Hipon

From August 1 to 18, 2019, Kaon ‘Ta sa Cucina features Ilonggo dishes all over the daily lunch and dinner buffet spreads. Like other Philippine provinces, Iloilo’s gastronomic interpretations stem from the place’s unique geography. Since it has sprawling midlands all the way to picturesque beaches, Ilonggo cuisine boasts of Panay Island’s rich bounty of fresh ingredients. Seafood specialties expected to catch the attention of diners include the fresh and juicy talaba (oysters) and the seasonal diwal. The latter is a much sought-after shellfish also known as angel wing clams because its shape reminds you of angels’ wings. The diwal tastes best when prepared the way one wants it within hours of being caught from the sea.

For inquiries or reservations, call +632 720-7720 or email restaurant.mnl@marcopolohotels.com.

 

(Marco Polo Ortigas Manila is located at Meralco Ave. corner Sapphire Road, Ortigas Center, Pasig City.)
