I heart…
THEME DAY: RED • Red packages filled with cookies on the red mahogany-stained shelves of Sugarhouse, which opened its first cake shop in Makati City in 1983. I remember the big fuss that everyone made about it because of its French Apple Pie, Strawberry Shortcake, Chocolate Mousse, Peach Walnut Pie and Blueberry Cheesecake—extremely rare treats in Manila back then. Competition is much tougher nowadays, but Sugarhouse is still around and doing quite well. In fact, they currently have sixteen branches all over Metro Manila, from kiosks selling only cakes, pastries and cookies to full-service restaurants with a wide menu. Cinnamon Twists or Chocolate Chip cookies anyone?

I'll take anything chocolate at this point in time! Nice reds. I forgot all about theme day! But I had good reason. Grandchildren visiting! Yikes!
Treats in red, I love it. You take the cake today.
While your post fit the red theme well, I would be a fan of any post dealing with cookies or chocolate, regardless of the theme.
All I can say is "Mmmm."
What a delcious post for today's theme. French Apple Pie and Strawberry Shortcake, I think I've on weight just reading about them.
(Having been away on hols, I haven't had the chance to take more photos, hence the photo from my travels)☺
Cheers.

hummmmmmm j'en veux, j'en veux....;)
Trust you to make us hungry on Theme Day! A lovely choice, Hilda.
Hilda! You are so naughty!! Now I want chocolate chip cookies AND pie ... and it's bedtime for me! Whew!Thanks a lot! LOL!!
Please pass the milk! :-). Just tonight I baked a cherry pie, so I've already sampled a piece and haven't room for a cookie just now. I'll be back! Very fun take for this theme day!

I can imagine the cookies are delicious too. I like the packaging.
I chose a picture I took 55 years ago of my Patty wearing a red dress. On April Fool's Day, April 1, 1955.
I gave her a diamond engagement ring, and today, April 1, 2010 is my entry for theme day on my Brookville Daily Photo blog.
Really a sweet choice... in red!
Nice small packs and I'm sure very tasty and very RED. Great choice for today!
The packaging is very attractive. And to think there's actually something tempting INSIDE sounds very tempting.
I'll take a package of each.
I agree with Ken and want to order each packet.
Sounds delightful! I'll take a bag of each.
yummy! nice choice for theme day
This is my kind of place! Excellent choice for Theme Day Hilda.
Cinnamon twists seem like a good choice !
I'll have two of each, please.
Yum, chocolate and cinnamon are my 2 favorite flavors, so serotonin-triggering: almost like falling in love!
Thanks for stopping over at my site and leaving your kind comment. The RED vino was delicious, btw.
Ciao

I'd make a big deal out of those cakes too! The wrapping is very pretty :)
I think you like sweets as much as me!
red gifts? for me? thank you
Nice to know that cake is comfort food in other hemispheres too! If I ever visit the Philippines, I'll be running around saying, "I learned about that on Hilda's blog!" As a matter of fact, BECAUSE of you, I want to visit your country. You should get a National Public Relations award!!!!
Sounds like my kind of shop! Nice choice for the theme day!!
Those as a picnic on the queen's bed. Just for the sake of it!
Yummy, delicious RED theme day posting! I might have to get up off my office chair and walk over to the chocolate candy dish ...
the packaging is so tempting.
An interesting (and tempting) take on the RED theme!
It's fun to see all the ways CDP bloggers interpret the theme!
What a yummy red post. The jokes on us because we can't buy any.
Sounds good but I'm not sure there is room in my daily calorie count. I say this and I'm drinking hot chocolate (smile) .. the red packaging goes will with the theme.
I am sure they taste fine and I find the package very elegant !
I love every one of your theme day photos, but I think I might especially love the contents of this one!
