My husband loves tamarind as much as I do. And so whenever I have the chance, I send some of his favorite tamarind candy to Korea.
Like today, for instance. His cousin flew back to Seoul this afternoon (
he came home with his Korean wife for a few days and celebrated the Lunar New Year here in the Philippines), and he brought with him a few bags of my husband's favorite
Rosing's Champoy.

Rosing's Champoy - Spicy and Original flavor.
Php 150 per 450g pouch. |
A product of San Pablo City,
Rosing's Champoy is widely popular for its balanced zing of tartness, sweetness, and saltiness. These homemade goodies are really yummy, you'd want to eat more, and more, and more.
'Hahanap-hanapin mo ang sarap', as one friend puts it. :)
 |
| Bite-sized and seedless. :) |
Named after its proprietor, Rosita Lasco,
Rosing's Champoy was launched as a marginal livelihood project in 2002. Eight years later, they added the Peanut Brittle to their product line.

Rosing's Peanut Brittle.
Php 120 per 160g pouch. |
And boy, oh boy, Rosing's Peanut Brittle is not like any other peanut brittle that I've tried before. The texture is quite similar to
Violet Crumble - crumbly, honeycomb toffee center sans the chocolate coating.

| Goodies from Rosing's! |
Thinking of buying a bag or two? You'd be glad to know that Rosing's Champoy is available at
SM Supermarkets. Or if you're in Cebu, you can buy these goodies at all
Islands Pasalubong branches. Or better yet, you can order them
online! :)

I really like peanut brittle! The other sweets also look very tasty. I have such a weakness for anything sweet.
ReplyDeleteThose all look so yummy. I just promised my son that I was going to take him to a candy store so we can do a review of it.

ReplyDeleteMy hubby would love that peanut brittle.
ReplyDeleteYummy treats. I hope your husband enjoys his goodies.
ReplyDeleteFantastic treats, I am glad you can get them online.
ReplyDeleteBite sized & seedless?!
ReplyDeleteOh where have you been all my life tamarind candy?!
Too bad that isn't available in Zamboanga. We have different tamarind candy here, plenty to choose from too BUT none in the seedless variety where you can just keep popping them into your mouth without the hassle of having to dispose of seeds afterwards...
I have never been a fan of brittle but wow those Rosing's Champoy in the first picture look and sound so delicious! I have to try them!!
