A few months ago, Tiffany's Confections was one of the newest hole-in-the-wall cafes in Bacolod City. Thanks to an extensive advertising campaign brought about by the owner, it has turned into one of the busiest cafes in the city. Bacolodnons/Bacolodians have started to flock to this garage-converted cafe for a lazy afternoon in the company of good food and drinks. And in a city where the success of an establishment depends on how it is able to withstand its first few months, Tiffany's Confections shows a lot of potential-- one that I never doubted during my first visit.
Among the telling signs that a cafe has become a success and has outgrown its crucial first month has been exhibited by Tiffany's. First of all, they recently announced that they have extended their cafe operating hours. Instead of the original hours, they extended their operations until 9:00pm on Fridays and Saturdays; much to the demand of its loyal clientele.
Another evidence that proves this is the fact that they have introduced a new set of items on their menu. Apart from the cakes they offer, they now serve tarts, quiche, and a couple of sandwiches.

I was able to visit earlier today and tried one of their sandwich-- the Parmesan Crusted Pesto Mozzarella Sandwich, a delicious melt-in-your-mouth snack for a busy afternoon. Having a craving for grilled cheese, this dish completed my search. First of all, it comes with a gorgeous filling of mozzarella cheese oozing out of its parmesan crusted bread. The layer of pesto beneath the cheese was just the right amount--not too much, not too little. It's not your typical grilled cheese sandwich, it's beyond that!

Their chocolate cake is also a must! A rich serving of moist chocolate topped with a sinfully addictive layer of chocolate icing. Mmmm...

If you're a fan of mangoes, their Mango Cheesecake will make you forget your name. It is far from the usual mango float dessert that almost everybody is already familiar with. Delicious, cool, and sweet; the perfect combination for a light afternoon treat.

Trust me on the sandwich. You won't regret it!
