Very thin and sugary biscuits attracts my eyes and stomach easily that’s why I usually buy Apas whenever I spot bakeshops selling this. Apas is the plural form of Apa, Filipino term for cone. Oh my Gosh! I’m so corny! But seriously, the name of these oblong-shaped pastries was derived from it.

Lucban must be really lucky and proud for being the origin of this toothsome lady finger. In fact, I bought my Broas at Kamay ni Hesus and as what I had expected, it’s really good. What’s the secret? Bakers air-dries its dough in between its two baking sessions.

I don’t know why these biscuits are called as such. It could have been a result of someone patient or maybe, someone feeling sorry. Oh! I should stop my imagination. However, Pacencia shouldn’t be sorry or pasensya in Filipino because its consumers are actually rewarded.

 

Pilipit or Twisted Cookies

Pilipit is also a well-known Filipino delicacy because it doesn’t only pertains to the biscuit, but also, to a rice cake. It means that there are two ways to cook it. Anyways, this twisted pastry is the pretzel version of the Philippines. With that, I ensure to you that it tastes as good as pretzels.

I’m not fond of eating mamon, but when I tasted it toasted, I changed my mind. You heard it right! Those fluffy mamons can turn into toasted cookies. Thanks to the Filipino minds who have hungry tummies for making this possible! You will definitely like it better when it is crunchy.

 

Uraro or Arrowroot Cookies

Uraro

I’m already familiar with Uraro ever since I was young because our neighboring province, Marinduque, supplies these. But then, I call it as arrowroot and it was just recently when I knew that it was Uraro or Araro. Nevertheless, I’m still not wrong because this starchy cookie is made from arrowroot flour.
