Create Sweet Memories with Pastry Armoire

I love sweets.  Basically, anything about cakes, pastries, and all the sweets in the world, I love. I also love it when I meet brilliant people who cook and bake so well like Chef Anna Chua of Pastry Armoire. This gem of a pastry shop is located at the 2nd floor of Ivory Bldg, along El Grande in BF Homes, Paranaque.

Pastry Armoire is new and was just opened to the public last month. The interiors like the counter top, table, crates, wood background, and panel are all hand made. This is your homely shop in the South!

According to Chef, who is also the brilliant home baker behind the creative desserts of Pink Wasabi, she was looking for something online when she stumbled upon the word, “armoire.”  Armoire means a movable antique cabinet—a cabinet filled with sweets and goodies, and she thought this would be a great name for her shop. Hence, Pastry Armoire.

Birthdays, debut, bridal shower, weddings, are few of the many special occasions we cherish. Besides the fun-filled activities, most people remember the food—delicious or not—more than the party itself. Therefore, make it more memorable by preparing a perfect dessert table, filled with scrumptious cakes and pastries from Pastry Armoire.  Here are some of the goodies you’ll find at the shop:
