Yummy Vjandep Pastel

I received this yummy pastel last night from my friend who just came from Camiguin. It is a sort of reward for convincing one of our guy friends not to cancel his Camiguin trip last Saturday. My guy friend does not want to continue the trip because of Typhoon Falcon, because he has two kids in tow, but I was able to persuade him, so I now have my favorite pastel from Camiguin.


Vjandep Pastel is the famous pastel and pasalubong in Camiguin, so do not leave Camiguin without buying this. It is just a small bun with a filling, you can choose from cheese, langka, macapuno, mango, pineapple, ube, and yema. I never tried other flavors because I am satisfied with the yema flavor.

Vjandep Pastel is also available in CDO, but of course, the price is no longer the same; however, the increase is just minimal. The last time we went to Camiguin, I bought a few boxes of this, and before going home, we dropped by SM CDO just to buy more boxes for pasalubong.

My husband knows that I love pastel, so whenever he sees pastel at the airport, he will buy me a box. Just one box if he is not in the CDO airport because it is really expensive. The last time he went to Cebu, he bought me one box and it cost him P250. But it is more or less P140 in Camiguin or CDO.


Update February 2018

My husband went to Davao last week, and I asked him to buy a Pastel if he ever saw one in the airport. So he bought one box (6pcs). When I tried it, parang may nagbago na taste ng tinapay and filling. For me, it is not the same anymore or masyado naovercook lang, look at the photo.
