Everyone loves a good gooey chocolate chip cookie, so when Liz Uy announced the opening of her Mood Bake pop-up store in Makati, there was no surprise that a long line of people showed up hoping to satisfy their sweet teeth.

Mad Mood love at the stand ??
What began as an Instagram shop selling made-to-order boxes of cookies, Mood Bake is the result of the celebrity stylist and HRIM graduate’s hundred recipe iterations, a few classes with Chef Gene Gonzales, and her love for son Xavi. She says in an exclusive interview with PhilStar, “I just really wanted something to be great at, something that would make my son Xavi proud of me. He’s too young to understand fashion. So I was thinking, ‘What would kids want, and is doable for a busy mom like me?’ That’s really how it started.”
Liz has branched out of the online realm to set up her very first pop-up in Greenbelt 5, where she sells cookies by piece and in boxes of 5 and 10. She only has one flavor for now—chocolate chip—but we’re told to expect more in the coming months. Her Greenbelt 5 pop-up will only last for a month, however, so it’s likely that she will open up shop in a new location by April.

Mood Bake is priced PHP 99 apiece, PHP 495 for a box of 5, and PHP 990 for a box of 10.
