Carlo’s Bakeshop and Cafe introduces their new line of products that will surely be a staple in parties of Ilonggo families, the All Occasion Rolls Collection!
Raisa Treñas, now CEO of Rosalie and Jerry Treñas (RJT) Group, together with siblings Carlo (Director for Operations) and Paolo (Marketing and Business Development Head), excitedly announced on Wednesday the delicious cake rolls to members of Iloilo media, bloggers and social media influencers at Carlo’s Bakery Cafe along Diversion Road, Jaro, Iloilo City.
“We’re happy and proud of this product and our team. It is a good time to launch,” said Raisa. “We are just in time for graduation and for the fiestas, and you know how Ilonggos love their sweets and desserts.
All Occasion Rolls Collection comes in six flavors, namely, The Ultimate Chocolate, Mango and Cream, Ube Macapuno, Mochaccino, Dulce de Leche, and Brazos de Mercedes Rolls. Cake lovers may order these in full and half sizes, with prices ranging from P220 to P420 only.
“It’s exciting for us to launch this new line because we see more and more mothers provide cakes or desserts for the family while pinching their budgets. Especially during family celebrations, cakes and rolls are a staple and makes the occasion more special” Paolo said.
“We decided, why not offer them more choices in terms of cakes and rolls so they can still make the moments count? In the end, that’s what we are all about, Goodness in every moment.”
Carlo’s Bakeshop made us feel that we are really in a party by setting up those yummy cakes in presentation corners simulating life’s moments such as graduation, baptism and birthday.
We were able to taste slices of the rolls collection, and my personal favorites are the Ube Macapuno, and Mango and Cream Roll, which has slices of famous sweet Guimaras mangoes on top.
I’m pretty sure my wife would love Dulce de Leche Roll, which uses our own delicacy of dulce gatas with caramel and cream. I’ll bring her home the next time I drop by.
Coffeeholics may opt for Mochaccino, and of course the all-time fave Ultimate Chocolate Roll with chocolate cream and chocolate chips.
I don’t celebrate baptism and birthday so I opted to pose for a selfie at ‘graduation corner’. Thanks to all who liked this photo in Facebook and Instagram, I was given freebies for those social media engagements.
