Half beautiful botanical plant store, half Filipino bakery..Yes, please! Today was the grand opening of the Botanical Bakeshop. On the right side of the store there are cacti, succulents, hanging plants, flower pots, and more for purchase. The space was adorned with so many gorgeous plants on shelves and on the wall. I will be back to buy a Venus fly trap since my nieces both love them. The other half of the store is a Filipino bakery serving treats such as sans rival, ube crinkle cookies, ube cake, shortbreads, and beverages. I tried the sans rival, a dessert made with layers of buttercream, meringue, and cashews. It was delicious. I also ordered the lavender calamansi shortbread. If you like lavender, you will love this shortbread. Finally, I ended with the Halo Halo, which means mix mix. The Halo Halo is a shaved ice dessert made with oat milk, ice cream, fruit jellies, sweet beans, coconut flakes, and topped with ube. I loved the fruit jellies giving it a yummy, chewy surprise. The servers were friendly and polite. I even received a goody bag with a cute little succulent and an ube crinkle cookie. I can't wait to bring my Filipino friend here! She was envious of my food pictures. We will be back soon.
