There are some things in life that are just too good to last forever, like Magnum Manila Cafe which concluded its one year run at SM Aura last year. Click on my previous posts for some of their SWEETS & SAVORIES.

I was one of the sad peeps who said goodbye with a heavy heart to the pop-up store. Goodbye, dressed up rich & creamy ice cream. Goodbye, pumped up thick & gooey chocolate huhu.

But what is this? I heard another Magnum Pleasure Store just opened at Mall of Asia before the year ended. Santa must’ve decided to reward all the good girls, good boys, and good titas of Manila such as myself! 😉 And since we couldn’t get to the North Pole, he brought the north pole to us -albeit for just another 12 months! 😉 Still, grateful for another year-long extension, Ho Ho Ho!

Kap & I were so lucky to be among the few invited guests of Magnum Manila in its new home in SM Mall of Asia (told ya SM’s got it all for ya!). Santa’s Elvettes didn’t have to ask us twice, in fact we got there faster than you can say Dasher & Dancer, Prancer & Vixen, Comet & Cupid, Donner & Blitzen! 😉

With lovely ladies Annie Ringor, President of Bridges PR. Diane Kimberly Tan, Senior Brand Manager of Unilever, and Andrea Huang, Global Assistant Brand Manager at Unilever. Thank you so, so much for having us! <3

Why that giddy smile? Well, YOU tell Me!

Who wouldn’t with bar, after bar, after bar of MAKE-YOUR-OWN Magnum ice-creamy goodness! <3

Kap & I were surely in for an afternoon-filled treat. Excited & hyper are 2 VERY understated words to describe me that day!

Oooooh! So many toppings. So tiny ice cream bar (and tummy space) to fill! ;))

I was contemplating on whether or not it was a good idea to take Kap along. He only allowed me to make & eat ONE! What a party pooper, boo.

But first, a selfie a brief introduction by Andrea while a Magnum Pleasure Maker creates a personalized ice cream bar for the charming Tarrah Austria, PR Bridges Accounts Executive, who gives us her best smile at the end of this video…

And finally, I got my plump hands on my very own personalized Magnum ice cream bar. Yuuum!

Goofballs at work & at play. Thank you so much again Diane for being our patient photographer haha. Ang kukulit ng mga lolo at lola!

One photobomber deserves another, don’t you agree? 😉

Love at first bite. Enjoyed our his-and-hers na, make-your-own pa na Magnum ice cream bar. <3 Bring your date to Magnum Manila for guaranteed extra pogi points. Magaan pa sa bulsa!

Kap & I are really black & white, sugar & spice. Opposites, but two-gether, we click. While he likes white chocolate, I go for dark. Where he goes for sweet & salty, I like sweet & spicy. But whatever your taste, Magnum Manila makes sure you get exactly what YOU want. Make your own Magnum bar for only 120 php/serving – choose 3 toppings.

Masyado naman yatang nasarapan si Kap my Kap. Nag-take 2 pa. Namnam na namnam!

Thank you so much Magnum Manila & Bridges PR for such a happy afternoon! <3 And thank you also RICHARD & IRENE for inviting us along for the unique Magnum Ice Cream Bar experience. Now going to SM MOA is on top of the GOppets 2016 must-visit-often list. See you soon Magnum Manila!
