HAPPY NEW YEAR 2012! (and other news...)

Season of wishes, wish of good health and prosperity to all our friends of course, but also wish of less foolishness in this world which lacks for good sense and respect of its own home, the Earth. I do not know if it will be the last year as predicted the Mayas a long time ago (and Hollywood movie more recently!) but it will be certainly a year of all dangers and not only for endangered plants and animals. So, my wish is human species will not also become endangered species.

And we will continue to offer you sometimes new products, sweet jams and other delicacies which are also the honey of the life.

CREAMY FRESH WHITE CHEESE WITH GARLIC AND BASIL
CREAMY FRESH WHITE CHEESE WITH HONEY
These two new products are ONLY available at ARIBU, the new restaurant and Deli of Gerry Ledesma located at Art district, Mandalagan, Bacolod. A nice new place in Bacolod, especially for the ones who like night life.
It is a fresh product based on cheese from cow milk good if you like salty (Creamy fresh white cheese with garlic and basil, like the cheese called "Boursin" in France) or sweet (Creamy fresh white cheese with honey, a french recipe of the Middle Age when sugar didn't exist in Europe).
Spread on toasted bread, it is a nice alternative for merienda at any time. Sold in container 100g.



A NEW ADDRESS FOR LOLA'S GARDEN JAM PRODUCTS
Technology and Livelihood Development Center (TLDC) presented since 2 years our products during the Organic Festival. You can now find our jams (classic, spicy and no sugar added) at their outlet near the Capitol, Gatuslao Street. There are also many other interesting products you can find only there, for example for food processing.


AND A NEW VERY RARE JAM...
The Roselle jam is our first flower jam. More exactly, the calyx of the mature plant is used to prepare this very rare jam. We need large quantity, something like 4kg of calyx to prepare only a dozen of bottles. That explains the price a little higher than the other classic jam.
Roselle is growing well in the Philippines but the production is very low and more for its medicinal uses. According to James A. Duke (Handbook of Energy Crops), the plant is "reported to be antiseptic, aphrodisiac, astringent, cholagogue, demulcent, digestive, diuretic, emollient, purgative, refrigerant, resolvent, sedative, stomachic, and tonic, roselle is a folk remedy for abscesses, bilious conditions, cancer, cough, debility, dyspepsia, dysuria, fever, hangover, heart ailments, hypertension, neurosis, scurvy, and strangury", not less! As usual, we are not claiming jam is medicine. But serious scientific works show every day its interest.
And about the jam, I guarantee a very original taste, like the European red fruits jams which are probably the best existing jams (rasberry, gooseberry,...). Try it rapidly, the stocks are very low! It will be available this coming Friday at Bob's, Virgie's and Pendy's outlets.




By the way, we will give a new look to all our labels and we inaugurate with this Roselle jam. Other labels for the other products will change step by step.
