Caffe Ti Amo

After watching Catch Me, and after my theater snacks of Quickly Taro Taro and French Baker's Peanut Butter and Oatmeal and Raisin Cookies, I had another dessert at Caffe Ti Amo. I sampled just two flavors, Blueberry Cheesecake and Dulce de Leche.

The blueberry was true to its name, just milder, same with the dulce de leche. Between the two, the dulce was sweeter and has a stronger taste. I ordered the uno waffle gelato - 1/4 waffle with fruits, whipped cream and caramel sauce, topped with gelato. It is just good for one. The fruits were just mini pieces of watermelon and a peach wedge. The waffle was crunchy on the outside but almost hollow and soft inside. It (waffle) was good with just the whipped cream and caramel sauce. It can even do without the gelato which was bland compared to the whipped cream and caramel sauce.

Btw, I were told that their gelatos have 90% less fat and sugar. This statement confused me. I just watched Lizzie McGuire The Movie, a few weeks ago. They were in Italy, and when they went inside a gelato shop, their teacher said that a gelato is like an ice cream but with just more sugar. I don't know if this is true or not. If gelatos are supposed to be liked that, sweeter than ice cream thus have more sugar, and Caffe Ti Amo just made theirs healthier, thus the 90% less fat and sugar.

DOLCE

I was able to sample the gelatos of Dolce last week.

I bought the Medium (with up to 5 flavors of gelato) for only P90. It's a good way of sampling more gelatos.

I chose the New York Cheesecake, Mango Graham, White Chocolate with Nutella, Dulce de Leche and Ferrero Rocher.

All were good but what stood out was the New York Cheesecake. It's better than the donut version of Krispy Kreme and even better than the actual cheesecake. It was tart, tangy, crunchy, sweet and creamy.

The Ferrero Rocher was the runner-up, just because it has chunks of ferrero in it.

The downside with buying the medium, was that with the many gelato flavors the taste became confusing, with the Mango Graham as the prominent taste. I would have enjoyed the New York Cheesecake more if I just bought the small. Well, there's always a next time.

By the way, I also sampled their Nutella Marble and Italian Cookies, they were both okay, but if you want to try only one flavor, I recommend the New York Cheesecake.
