One of my favorite dessert places in Manila is The Cake Club by Diamond Hotel at Bonifacio Global City.
The Cake Club also offers savory dishes for the lunch or dinner crowd but I always come for the sweets.
Here are the items I've tried from their dessert menu:
 |
| Ispahan (250php) |
Practically a giant macaroon, perfect for those who are not into very rich cakes.
 |
| Baked Cheesecake (250php) |
My favorite Cake Club cake! Rich and pure making it a cheesecake that's hard to resist.
 |
| Supermoist Chocolate Cake (250php) |
True to hype, this decadent chocolate cake is very moist indeed.
 |
| Diamond Ensymada (120php) |
Diamond Hotel is very famous for its ensymada but I'm not much of a fan. It's very ordinary for me. Also tried their ube version on a separate trip, but I wasn't swayed.
 |
| Foie Gras Macaroon (150php) |
A lot has also been said about this very sinful macaroon but I don't like it as well. Too exotic for my simple palate.
 |
| Ice Cream: 150php for 2 scoops |
Truth be told, more than the cakes, it's the homemade ice cream that makes me keep coming back to The Cake Club. One can never go wrong with the Salted Caramel and Baked Cheesecake flavors.
The Cake Club is located at UG/F Bonifacio High Street Central, East Superblock, 7th Ave cor 29th St. Fort Bonifacio, Taguig. For more information call 621-3176.
