MetroDeal’s 8-inch Cheesecake, etc. Cake at 50% off

In our family, cheesecakes are reserved only for ultra-special occasions. They are yummy, no doubt about that. But the price does eat a big chunk of our budget. In fact, we buy cheesecakes only by the slice. So imagine my delight when MetroDeal offered a whole 8″ Cheesecake, etc. cheesecake at 50% off. Instead of Php 995, the Mango Passion cheesecake I ordered only cost Php 495. Sweet!

I seldom see features on Indian sweets so when one show in Discovery Travel and Living Channel finally did a feature on it, I was all eyes and ears.
