Happy Cream Puff

I've always wanted to try Happy Cream Puff since the first time I saw their products via Facebook. The colorful array of their petit puffs definitely enticed my eyes and I promised myself I'll go there someday to try them out... so I did, yesterday at their Makati Branch in Bel-Air, Makati City.Here's my review:When I saw their store, it doesn't look much inviting to enter and the neighborhood feels empty. Inside, though, the place is quaint but a bit small. The place is air-conditioned not only for their patron's convenience, but also to protect their eclairs and cream puffs from spoiling. because, according to them, their products last for only 3 hours in room temp. so either consume it immediately or store in the fridge which will last up to 2 days.In this branch, this is where all the cream puffs are made and you can see for yourself behind the counter that they really make them from scratch to maintain freshness and deliver to their other branches. I love this concept where we can see how they're made though I wish they'd put a wall or glass dividers in-between the counter and the workers to separate the store from their workplace.The only product I tried was their petit puffs since some of their products were quite ready. There are 14 flavors to choose from like strawberry, matcha, plain dark chocolate and caramel to name a few. They cost P25 each but you can get a discount when you buy either a box of 10 or 14.Flavors were alright but not enough to make me feel satisfied and receive the value for my money. Serving size was small, since their petit, but wished the flavor justified the price. Custard, however, was good and not too sweet. Perfect to compliment the cream puff and may I recommend to eat it when it's cold. The best way of eating the custard, I promise!If you want to try their cream puffs out, visit them in any of their 9 branches in Manila. You can also check out their branch in Shangrila which also offers other desserts and savory dishes.

Happy Cream Puff specializes in freshly made cream puffs and eclairs. It comes in different flavors such as caramel, chocolate, strawberry, white chocolate, etc. They actually offer assorted cream puffs in a box of 10 or more, depending on your preference. This will be a great choice if you are looking for pasalubong or sweet treats for your kids or friends.
