Philippine Airlines (PAL) marks its 84th Anniversary with a sweet tribute to its Filipino roots through a specially curated dessert selection, available from March 15 to May 31 at select destinations.
These unique culinary creations capture the essence of Filipino flavors, showcasing how food has the power to evoke cherished memories, cross borders, and tell the rich stories of heritage and shared experiences.
The anniversary dessert collection features three standout offerings: the Trio Bite-Sized Dessert Plate, Southern Chocolate Ganache Cake Slice, and Pacencia with Mango Butter Cream Filling.
Filipino Classics with a Modern Twist
A beloved fixture in Filipino celebrations, leche flan is the local equivalent of crème caramel and is often compared to crème brûlée. For PAL’s anniversary, this classic treat gets a creamy upgrade, with slow-simmered cantaloupe syrup, a white chocolate topping, and layers of crushed mango underneath.
The Southern Chocolate Ganache Cake Slice is an indulgent delight, made with premium chocolate sourced from the finest cacao beans in Davao. Its velvety texture and rich flavor are a true representation of the country’s vibrant chocolate-making heritage.
Lastly, the Pacencia with Mango Butter Cream Filling features delicate Filipino meringue cookies, filled with the sweetest mangoes the country is famous for, offering a perfect balance of lightness and flavor.
Trio Bite-Sized Dessert Plate
Business class passengers on North American flights to destinations such as Los Angeles, San Francisco, Seattle, and New York will be treated to the Trio Bite-Sized Dessert Plate. In addition to this special dessert, passengers can also opt for a refreshing halo-halo—another classic Filipino dessert made with sweetened fruits, toppings, and milk—or enjoy it with a cheese platter or ice cream.
Southern Chocolate Ganache Cake Slice
For those flying business class to Honolulu and Australia, the Southern Chocolate Ganache Cake Slice is available, alongside the option of a cheese platter or ice cream, offering a taste of Filipino craftsmanship in every bite.
Fulfilling a Legacy of “Care that Comes from the Heart”
Each dessert has been thoughtfully created to reflect PAL’s dedication to excellent service, aligned with its core promise of “Care that comes from the heart.” This commitment to quality service has been a cornerstone of the airline’s success and continues to define its legacy.
By offering these delicious treats, PAL not only delights passengers who have supported its journey for 84 years, but also highlights the global appeal of Filipino flavors, enhancing the travel experience with memorable culinary moments.
