Just dessert, or weapon of world domination?
For months we’d been walking past the “Inutak” food stand outside the supermarket. The other day we finally tried it.
Inutak is a sticky rice cake slathered with coconut cream. It’s very rich and evil, meaning we approve enthusiastically. Inside it looks like a smooth sapin-sapin/halayang ube. We’re guessing the name “inutak” comes from the brain/marrow-like texture of its top layer.
Many years ago, our friend Tina wondered why no one has come up with a dessert of dried mango slices dipped in chocolate. After many years of pointless searching, she found it.
It’s intense and insanely brilliant. On their own, dried mango and chocolate are good; together they are awesome squared.
Are you thinking what we’re thinking? This is an instrument of world domination! With this weapon, we would crush all competition.

It would be more fabulous if the mango were completely covered in chocolate. I mean, why should you wait till the last bite to experience the two together?

You should try Cebu Best mango chocolate. It is attractively- packaged like imported chocolates with the label tag: Belgian chocolate dipped dried mango strips.
PAL serves this in international flights. They have these at SM Kultura and metroGaisano Taguig among other outlets.
