Purple Oven
The Purple Oven is a local bakery in Manila. It is the very first cake shop I visited since we had arrived in the city. When I was looking for a bakery to buy a dessert to take to our friends’ house in Manila, I did a research online. It did not take long to learn that the Purple Oven was a well-known popular cake shop here even though I could not find its website. Seeing the Purple Oven in person made me feel even better about ‘discovering’ the shop!
When I move to a new city, I usually look for dessert shops. As a newbie, you often receive invitations to visit new friends. Knowing a good bakery is wonderful since I can take something sweet when we go over to our friend’s home. Having grown up in Japan, I feel strange not to bring anything when we go over to someone’s house.
The baked goods at the Purple Oven are tasty and not too sweet. I like them because of that. I also find the pricing at the Purple Oven reasonable. All the cakes look decadent. My husband bought two cakes for his colleagues for someone’s farewell party one time. Apparently, it was a big hit. Needless to say my first visit made me want to go back for more and I have been back.
The Filipinos love sweets. If you have a sweet tooth, this is the country you want to be. You find all kinds of sweets here!
Within the short period of time I have been in Manila, I have visited Purple Oven 3 times already. I noticed that Crinkle Chocolate is a popular items in the Philippines. I liked the Purple Oven version of chocolate crinkles.

Please send me Grandmas chocolate cake! Just kidding.
They all look so good, right? I want to try so many of their cakes!
ooh I love Purple oven and their yummy dessert. My fav is their chocolate peanut butter cookies. Goes well with my morning coffee. And their cheese cake. Each time I host dinners I always hope someone will swing by purple oven. I avoid the temptation of personally going there. Great post as usual. xx
Thank you so much for the comment! Ooooh, chocolate and peanut butter are amazing combo! I love cheese cakes and anything with chocolate. Last time I went there, I spent a good time staring at their cakes (drooling). I shouldn’t go there when I’m hungry!
