Bo's Coffee's New Offerings

Bo’s Coffee recently launched its own version of the Super Moist Chocolate Cake which is there 1st new offering! This old-time everybody’s favourite sweet delight is something one can't just resist, especially if paired with coffee at Bo's. Called the Super Moist Chocolate Cake, the concoction is a feast for one’s senses. This brown heaven has chocolate dripping deliciously from its core with every bit that you take and put in your mouth.

Some would say that the history of the chocolate cake goes back to 1764, when Dr. James Baker discovered how to make chocolate by grinding cocoa beans between two massive millstones. The resulting chocolate liquid syrup was poured in molds to make “cakes” of chocolate. Since that time, chocolate cakes have gone through several versions from the simplest home-baked chocolate cakes to those infused with fruits and champagne.

Offering #2: Cookie for the gods: a twist to a classic

Food for the gods is a delicious mix of butter, sugar, eggs, and nuts. It is up there with Fruitcake as a Christmas gift staple. And why not? You can never go wrong with a perfectly baked Food for the gods.

However, as is tradition at Bo’s Coffee, they are taking this Filipino classic one step further. In comes Cookie for the gods. Taking the same ingredients that make Food for the gods the goodness we all love to eat, Bo’s Coffee put a twist by making cookie versions.

Cookie for the gods is a crunchy gem of a cookie that teases you to have more than one every time. Available at Bo’s Coffee in Manila and Cebu, this sweet-smelling delight will never disappoint.

Bo’s Coffee’s Super Moist Chocolate Cake and the Cookie for the Gods are already available in Manila and Cebu.

How to get Bo's Coffee Doodle Set

The Doodle Set is your Ultimate Doodling Companion! At Bo’s Coffee, we take doodling very seriously or not. It might seem strange for anyone to be serious about doodling but it's a way for creative people to really let loose and express there current-immediate thoughts.

Bo’s Coffee has thus created the ultimate doodling companion: the Doodle Set.



The Set includes three items: the Doodle Mug, Doodle Book, and Doodle Colored Pencils. Bo’s Coffee customers may avail of these three items by filling up their sticker cards from October 15, 2010 to January 30, 2011.

Doodle Colored Pencils is a pack of three colored pencils that are ready to brighten up your doodles!

So you think that you know about doodling?

Doodling is an activity for the bored and the listless, done while listening to a dull teacher or while enduring a long-winded conversation on the phone or so you think? But what we don’t realize is that doodling is really an intelligent activity.

Jackie Andrade, a psychology professor in the UK, proved through research that doodling aids memory. She had 40 people go through a monotonous phone conversation, with half of them doodling and half of them not. The doodling group remembered 29% more of the details as opposed to the ones who weren’t doodling.

1. Other psychologists assert that doodling helps to bring out a person’s ideas and emotional state.
2. Sometimes, words aren’t enough to express our thoughts and feelings, so doodling somehow draws them out of us.

The Doodle Mug is an elegantly-boxed white mug, adorned with friendly advice such as “go home early,” “pray” and “read a new book.” It’s great for sipping coffee while doodling.

And where should you do the doodling? The Doodle Book is here for all kinds of people: the creative and spontaneous can take advantage of our unruled pages, planning buffs will find their organization needs satisfied with our day and month planning pages, and perennial note-takers will enjoy our ruled note pages.

This year’s Doodle Book features something new: two Treats Pages. Doodle Book owners will be able to avail of exclusive promos through these Treats Pages. The first is “Tuesdays with Bo.” Each Tuesday, Doodle Book owners may avail of a free cookie with the purchase of one tall brewed coffee between 11 am and 1 pm or 6 pm and 8 pm. The second Treat Page entitles a customer to the free item of the month (e.g. Lemon Square, Short Hot Americano) if he/she purchases at least P220 worth of Bo’s Coffee items from 11 am to 2 pm and 6 pm to 8 pm. These promos are valid from January 1 until December 31, 2011 only.

Tentay Patis arrives in Cebu

Tentay Food Sauces Inc. remains committed to the same values that guided its founder — premium quality products at the best possible prices. With that, they chose to expand in Cebu in search of new markets and new opportunities.

In 1949, Ruperta D. Javier, an enterprising housewife concocted a fish sauce (patis) and fish paste (bagoong) from the fish hauls in the part of Navotas. Aware of the delicious taste of her sauces and proud of it, she simply named both “Tentay” which was how she was popularly called. Half a century later, her nickname became a byword for sauces and the products that carry her name has then increased from just 2, to capture the tastebuds of millions of people around the world – flavoring dishes in 11 countries spanning 4 continents.

The company’s strict quality control standards has enabled it to successfully penetrate other countries that exercise strict food importation, analysis and testing particularly on food additives and preservatives. Tentay Food Sauces Inc’s 1996 Golden Shell Award for Marketing Excellence is proof of the company’s continuous commitment to the same high-standards in food quality control set by its founder.

The Golden Shell Award are annually given by the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) to outstanding manufacturers of products or services that highlight the Filipino’s ingenuity, craftsmanship and business excellence.

Tentay Food Sauces Inc is the only food sauce company among a handful of awardees who won the highly-contested, prestigious Golden Shell Award for Product Quality Manufacturing Standard and Export Marketing Excellence – an affirmation of TFSI’s ongoing efforts to provide Filipinos and the rest of the world quality products at the best possible value.

Tentay Patis is the only Philippine Brand that passed the strict Japanese Standard in Sodium Benzolate, with not more than .005% or near zero preservative reading, qualifying it easily fot the U.S. Regualtions on fermented foods.

Tentay Food Sauces Inc currently offers a wide range of sauces for a variety of uses from marinating, basting, pouring to dipping. The company’s growing number of products attests to the company’s creativity and continuous product research and development in providing the best tasting sauces at popular prices.
Tentay Food Sauces Inc looks at the next fifty years with pride from its humble beginnings and hope in bringing to the world the unique taste of Filipino sauces – continuously pursuing its battlecry “Ibuhos ang sarap”.

Patis is a healthy alternative to and equally matches the use of ordinary table salt. Patis sauce has less of the ’salt’ but more of the flavor and aroma that makes favorite dishes even more tempting.
