Sausage Pizza Roll

My first try in tasting Starbucks' sausage pizza roll today.  When I ordered it, I was thinking that it would taste like real pizza with special pizza sauce and mozzarella cheese; but it wasn't.  My first bite was fine.  I liked the tender juicy frankfurter and the flaky crust of the roll.  But as I go on with my next bites, I just couldn't help myself trying to taste the "pizza" in it (as its name suggested).  All I could taste were the sausage and the buttery crust.  Well, I could taste a little cheese in it, but I was not really satisfied.  Good thing the sausage tasted really good, otherwise I would not finish it.

Mango Yogurt Cheesecake

I'm not into yogurt coz I find its taste weird and sour to my taste buds.  Anything with yogurt I can't eat much.  I like giving it a try but afterwards it always comes to disliking the taste.  I don't know why.

This afternoon when we visited Starbucks at The Block @SM North, there was this enticing cheesecake in the counter.  Looked so delish and mouth-watering.  But then when I checked what it is, I got a little disappointed coz it has yogurt in it - mango yogurt cheesecake.  Yet, I couldn't help myself and kept thinking should I taste this one?!  So I did.  I bought a slice together with my fave green tea cream frappe.

Guess what!?  I loved Mango Yogurt Cheesecake!  The texture, sweetness and sourness, crunchiness of the toppings, and the soft velvety center were all perfectly put in harmony that satisfied my gustatory (taste) cells.  I didn't even remember that it has yogurt in it.  But I just wish that there is more mango in it.

Cold Stone Dark Chocolate


Anything chocolate would always give satisfaction to me.  And I found a new way to indulge myself with dark chocolate.

Have you ever tasted any product of Cold Stone Creamery?  Yesterday, I got the chance to taste one of its products for the first time.  My daughter and I ordered for dark chocolate.  We opted to keep it simple.  No wafer, no extra toppings.  Just simple plain dark chocolate.  Yes, I must admit, I couldn't afford any extras actually.  CSC's products are a bit costly.

CSC's dark chocolate ice cream is indeed creamy but too sweet for my taste.  Should I try it again?  Yes, of course! :)
