[Me & U] Two Mugs for soulmates


Weddings, anniversaries, monthsaries , valentines... Having trouble finding a gift? Worry no more ... >.< 
There's a shop that has a variety of couple items great to give to these various occasions.
   
I found "Me & U shop" in sm megamall while  trying to find a unique gift for a wedding. From the first time I saw the shop it immediately went in my mind that I would be able to find a gift suitable for the wedding. I was already attracted immediately with the display of the shop. I find the concept of the shop very unique. 

There were many items to choose from ... couple tall glasses, couple pillows, bedsheets, couple shirts, couple mugs, pendants and rings.  Out of all the items I've opted to buy the couple mugs. 

Price: P750 + 
Packaging: The mugs are securely pack in a box with me & u seal. There is no need to gift wrap the mugs since it is good enough to give with its cute paper bag.
Product: The mugs looks beautiful and thick ( makes it look sturdy) . I love the message on the mugs, just perfect for a couple in love (*",*)
Branch: SM Megamall

[Tous Les Jours] rose fresh cream cake

Rose Inspiration Fresh Cream Cake - Filled with Hand Picked Strawberries from Korea. Perfect Balance of Strawberries and Fresh Yogurt Cream Icing topped with Natural Strawberry Powder. - TLJ 


Ever since TLJ opened its shop in SM North Edsa, I was intrigued with the cakes and breads. It was one of the items in my checklist I would like to take a bite of . During the time when my mom's birthday was near I've considered TLJ as one of my choices next to mango tart of tea republic followed by red ribbon and goldilocks cakes. Since my mom is also a pastry chef, I've opted to chose a cake that's very unique, affordable and beautiful.


My mom was very impressed with how the cake was shaped into a rose. She even wanted to go to TLJ to watch how the cake is made. 


Price: P498 (affordable)
Flavor: strawberry chiffon cake
Design: Rose cake
Icing: Yogurt cream topped with strawberry powder (rose part) and green tea powder (leaf part), droplets of water made of gelatin
Packaging: The cake was pack in a cute, secured, easy to carry box. 
Extras: The cake includes 2 candles and a white long plastic knife. There is no more need to worry about forgetting an item for blowing and cutting of the cake yey!
Branch: SM North Edsa


What I like most out of the cake is its unique design, it must be tedious to shape a cake into a rose. The strawberry chiffon was soft and fluffy, it wasn't dry which is good. Although the taste felt ordinary to me (maybe because I grew up  having a mom who bakes cakes >.< ) . The yogurt icing is very delicious and I can't get enough of it. 


Thank you TLJ for coming up with this cake! 
It brought a smile into my mom's face and made my mom's birthday unforgettable.


I just hope someday TLJ will have a branch in SM Megamall or Shangrilla so that it will be more accessible. I would surely continue buying cakes / breads from TLJ for the next occasions that would come. Cheers! >.<


How about you what was your TLJ experience?
