Frank & Mike's Soft Pandesal

We finally have the most sought after Filipino bread roll "Classic Pandesal" on the menu. It took quite awhile for us because this particular bread is available for anyone and anywhere in the country. It is often associated to our typical, local panaderia or bread shop which is found in almost every street in every town.

Since Frank & Mike's Bakery has been about what we love as a family, we decided to add Pandesal on our menu of specialty breads but we leveled it up a notch. No there's no ube or cheese, but the F&M Classic Pandesal is enriched with more premium bread ingredients to make it natural as it remains soft, fluffy but not airy. 

It takes us some time to come up with a new kind of bread product because we study everything down to the simplest recipe, it is a process we don't want to play around with. As mentioned in the previous blogs, we don't use additives and commercialize ingredients, and we want to be consistent with every bread we make.
A lady once asked why our pandesal look different,  The Frank & Mike's pandesal is made extraordinary because it is weighed according to how we like our bread if we're to buy it, at least at 55g each roll. 

Yes, you can buy a piece of pandesal from a local bread shop for just 2.50php each, but it's all air and it becomes hard a day after. Not to forget, it gets moldy in less than a week.

The Frank & Mike's Pandesal remains soft and fluffy up to a week if stored properly. We recommend transferring your bread in an airtight container and keep out of direct sunlight. If it's in a bag, refrigerate. It's more delicious if you toast our pandesal fresh in the morning even if it's a 3- day old bread.👍

Choconana Ganache

With the booming amount of banana bread sellers online, we're proud to say that we have been doing this for 7 years. We are confident that if not the first, we are "one of the first" to release this product--- Banana Cake with Chocolate Ganache--- CHOCONANA GANACHE

We needed to put it out there to credit the beginnings of our humble bakery. It all started with our Classic Banana Cake that was later on enriched with our decadent chocolate ganache. Why ganache? because our kids love it! We love it!

Since then, this has been the most requested item from our list. To be honest, we did a lot of experimentation with our classic banana cake to make it more appealing and appetizing, but we never changed anything with our Choconana Ganache. The amount of ganache oozing in every slice, mixing with the natural flavor of the banana came out perfectly. 

Commonly, well for some, they would pour and cover the whole cake with icing, or ganache for this matter. In our case, we don't want to overpower flavors so balance is key when it comes to toppings. Some like it sweet, but not too sweet. Some like it plain, searching not only for the chocolate, but the original banana flavor or the taste of the cake itself.

In the end, this was created because of the trust we have given ourselves, that we can come up with something our own, hence, Choconana Ganache. It is how much effort you put on being original and transforming simple things as your own that matters.
