Something about Sugarlandia barquillos

A few months ago, my boyfriend's parents came from a wedding of a family member in Bacolod, Philippines. When they finally arrived back from the trip, we were greeted with boxes of goodies and sweets in the kitchen. Boxes full of piaya, barquillos, pastillas and other yummy sweets filled the mini boxes. Among the treats that plagued my eyesight, we had Sugarlandia's double short barquillos to try for dessert. These are crisp thinly rolled wafers, usually of vanilla flavor. Boy, let me tell you, I was never really a fan of barquillos but these were just addicting! I was always a fan of sweets but barquillos were something I never really craved for. It was the perfect combination to end a long day, most especially with a scoop of ice cream, or make it two hehe.

Once you start munching on these barquillos, you can't stop! You end up eating a whole bag to yourself! That's how good they are and that's what happened to me haha. What's great about these yummy treats is that it's not too sweet and it doesn't break easily. These barquillos are nothing fancy, but they surely are addicting. I guess it's because they're so much smaller than regular barquillos and their "double layered" meaning they don't flake out so easily, but non the less still crisp.

 I knew I had to get my hands on these after my first bite! It was like love at first bite. My boyfriend's mom gave me a bag to take home, which I let my mom try at home too. She finished 3/4ths of the bag!! I had to google where I can get my hands on these goodies. It was difficult finding it online! Thank god they had their packaging label with thier phone number in the barquillos my boyfriend's mom gave me :D I had 7 boxes of these babies shipped all the way from Bacolod. All worth it :)
