I have to admit though that the new pastry shops have whipped up new formulas for creamier, fluffier, and/or spongier sugary delights. But one Goldilocks treat that has never changed and is still one of the best for me, is their classic Chocolate Roll!
Half a roll could yield anywhere from 4-6, or maybe even 8 slices; really depending on your craving meter.
It has just the right bittersweetness of chocolate I am looking for in a cake. And the perfect moistness and fluffiness that just melts in my mouth. I bring home half a roll every now and then. Mon loves it too.
My favorite of the Goldilocks cakes is the Brazo Mercedes. Sinful din. Too many eggs. I'm not too fond of chocolate cake, Goldilocks or otherwise except Bigby's.
ReplyDeleteI like this a lot too...this is the kind that you just leave in your mouth ng matagal to savor...I also like brazo de mercedes...di ba I mentioned before that cakes here are like bleehh..So the brazo de mercedes that pinoys sell (15euros each roll, ube or langka) are a hit! Haayy...kamiss...
ReplyDeleteclassic talaga their chocolate cake.. also the mocha roll! yun lang yung cakes na i love from goldilocks! saka yung cathedral windows gelatin nila :)
ReplyDeleteem dy, brazo de mercedes is mon's favorite naman! so alternate the two... give and take daw dapat diba. ;-) glucose overload ba!
ReplyDeletegiz, oo nga, ang mahal ng cakes dyan! grabe... at least dito, the price is right! hehehe... meron ding pricey cakes na new in town.. but for me, chocolate cake need not be expensive. thanks to goldilocks diba.
u8mypinkcookies, add the brazo. i couldnt eat brazo made by anyone else except Goldilocks. not even Red Ribbon. ;-)

ReplyDeletephotowalker, yung dalawang dulo! yup! theyre the two slices that are slathered with the most chocolate icing! unahan din kami dyan! ;-)
i love the "dulo" of the cake too! unahan din kami pag bumibili kami ng choco or mocha roll.
ReplyDeletehave you tried Hungrypac's Chocolate Ecstacy? its heaven! :D and its cheap lang, may slice sila that's 3 for P110 ata, then the whole cake isn't that expensive too. simple choco cake lang, pero moist and di tinipid sa chocolate! :D hehe.

ReplyDeleteanyway, ill try to find the Hungrypac's brand. im sure masarap din to... sabi mo eh. ;-)

ReplyDeleteanyway, im sure ill like this too. basta endorsed mo ang food, for sure, masarap. ill let you know. ;-)
hi there.. hehe.. :)
ReplyDeletei also love the chocolate roll from Goldilocks. I can eat it all up by myself.. right now i'm doing an entry for the goldilocks blog contest. your blog here really inspired me to finish my new post fast.. hehehe.. chocolate roll is so yummy and i am starving just by thinking of it... :)
@ g_mirage: tagal na yung cathedral windows nila. kid palang ako bumibili na kami nila mom nun :)
ReplyDeletekahit yung Heavenly Choco Slice ng Goldilocks, sarap na.. lesser guilt kasi same choco cake w/o the icing lang. hehe tapos Php20 lang! (pero addicted ako sa Marble Slice nila.. yumm!)
patola, nothing comes close to goldilocks' choco roll no?!!!
ReplyDeletegood luck with your contest.. how did it go?
bianca, mas masarap nga ang sliced pang meryenda cakes ng goldi than red ribbon... gusto ko din yung half moccha and half buttercake... tapos may manipis na icing between them. ;-)
