Words are best said with a smile. From light banters to text messaging, from small notes to online chatting, simple conversations are more earnest with a big smile - or a smiley for the techie bunch. But for some priceless moments, when words and smileys are not enough, people can always look for something sweeter - literally.
Recently, Makati Shangri-la Hotel launched the Emoti-cake, a delightful selection of adorable statement cakes that are sure to attract hopeless romantics and sweet tooth alike. The cakes come in two flavors, chocolate and cheese but with the quirky faces and messages printed over it, the fondant covered cakes are simply too cute to eat.
"We came up with the Emoti-cakes for people to give to their families and loved ones because sometimes it gets hard to express their feelings the way they want it to be," said Guillaume Bonnety, Makati Shangri-la's new executive pastry chef.
Designed with seven different faces and seven different expressions, clients choose from over 49 different cakes in petite (5.5 inches in diameter) and regular (7.5 inches in diameter) sizes.
"We use stencils to print the different faces and the text on the cakes so the designs will be consistent. Everything is edible. The chocolate cake is made of a gooey chocolate ganache which makes it very moist. While the lemon cheese cake is a light and creamy alternative with an interesting texture," Bonnety explained.
According to Bonnety, if the demands calls for it, they can customize Emoticakes for the coming Christmas. But as of now, let the emotive and expressive cakes inspire a thousand words ans "awws" from your family and loved ones with the sugary treat that fits any occasion.
