Local ice cream brand Papa Diddi's has released its latest offering just in time for Father's Day.
Dubbed "Sweet Origins," the handcrafted ice cream company is venturing into ice cream cakes with three initial flavors – Tres Leches, its signature ice cream made with condensada, carabao's milk and coconut milk paired with a vanilla cake; Choco Lovin, a dark chocolate delight made with Batangas tablea and choco chips matched with chocolate cake for full dark chocolate experience; and roasted strawberry ice cream with vanilla cake.
As the whole ice cream shop is a tribute to the owner's late father, the company’s main Sorbetero, Paul Perez said this Father’s Day is the most opportune time to roll out these ice cream cakes despite the current lockdowns due to the pandemic.
"Though honoring our fathers should be an everyday thing, Father's Day is a great way to show how you truly value your father in your life – and giving him something special, such as an ice cream cake, is one way of showing this,” Perez said.
Papa Diddi's is looking at expanding its cake line beyond ice cream cakes to include traditional cakes and pastries.
As local flavors are the usual inspiration for most of its ice cream offering since it started in Maginhawa Street in 2015, the new cake line will follow the same thought.
“We always add a twist, thus our cake line will be something worth looking forward to,” Perez said.
All the ice cream cakes are packed in 6×2-inch bronze tin cans and priced at P500 each. Same-day delivery can be made available as long as orders are made before 1 p.m.
Papa Diddi's branches are located at: 168 Maginhawa Street, Quezon City; Pobstacion, Valdez St. Poblacion, Makati City; 4F Eastwood Citywalk 2, Libis, Quezon City; 3F The Block, SM North Edsa, Quezon City; and UGF SM Southmall, Las Pinas.
