Bicol bites

There are 2 baked goods from Bicol that automatically transport me to my childhood.

First, there’s Marcasotes. It’s a traditional chiffon cake that’s served during fiestas and birthdays. Second, we have Budin. This is a pili cake with a small pili nut on top.

And last week, I was finally, FINALLY, able to take a bite of these 2!

It tastes as good as ever,
