Pilipinas Food Trip #13: Leche Flan Cake

| February 26, 2011

During one of our trips to the Eastwood Mall, my mom bought a gorgeous looking leche flan cake from one of the food booths on the lobby of the mall’s 2nd floor… I believe the price tag on this was P200.00, close to $5.00.  The cake was fluffy and the flan, heavenly.  I’ve always been [...]
