I've never attended the previous Ultimate Taste Tests, so I was really looking forward to this year's event at the Bonifacio Global City. It's great to see food entrepreneurs with their products all in one place, and sampling each of them in one night. You'll never know, but you could meet a potential food business success story right here. So what's cookin' at the Ultimate Taste Test 7.0 edition? Here's a quick tour on some of the Dude's favorites...
Mio Gelati and the Ferrero Gelato. If you love the candy, you'll definitely love this. And the Snickers Gelato ain't bad too...
Blackinese Brownies with their "adult" alcohol infused brownies like Absolut Vodka and my personal favorite, the Jack Daniels Brownie. Awesome.
Joanie's Cupcakes and their cupcake creations, delicious and a feast for the eyes.
Guests were given score cards to rate their favorites. I'm no critic, I just love to eat, but I do have some favorites.This year's Ultimate Taste Test 7.0 edition was truly an experience, with over 30 participants offering their unique culinary ideas. I'm pretty sure we'll hear more from these entrepreneurs. Congratulations to Anton Diaz of Our Awesome Planet for another successful event. Can't wait for the Ultimate Taste Test 8.0 edition.

I want that cupcake with meringue top! Artisan chocolate bites look great too.
ReplyDeleteAhh, gelato! That really brings back memories. When I went to Italy during the summer, there was a gelateria around every corner… I ate the stuff at least once every day for 2 weeks. It was pretty crazy.
ReplyDelete@ Angie- Hello Angie, lots of good eats at the Ultimate Taste Test, I didn't know where to start! Thanks for visiting, Angie!
ReplyDelete@ Nicole- Hi Nicole, I wouldn't mind gelato every day for 2 weeks as well, now that's very cool! Great to hear from you, Nicole!
Choclery Artisan Chocolates is also on my list of favorites, I am crazy over their Manchego variant. Cheese and chocolate, perfect marriage. :)
