Wow no offense meant, but if the size of Iya’s pastillas were pretty standard when a lot of you guys were young, I can’t help but wonder when that was :p I have loved pastillas de leche since I was a kid, and I have never encountered any that came close to the size of these ones!

Try the pastillas produced from UP Los Banos. Made from carabao milk.

Ooh ooh, I love pastillas when it’s dry, crisp on the outside and then moist inside. Yum! They’re available in Market Market? Too bad, I was just there yesterday.

hi MM! i can eat a whole box of pastillas! it ranks high in my list of comfort food. :D my late date had a co-worker who lives in bulacan. the co-worker often gifted my dad with the real deal…pastillas made from carabao’s milk. and who can ever forget the pastillas wrapped in colorful japanese paper with intricate cut-out designs?! that’s hard to come by now. one really has to go all the way to bulacan.

don’t you think it’s very disappointing to get a pastillas which is only half the size of the wrapper it came in? you can’ ever tell what size you’re gonna get. hahaha! and i agree, P250 is a tad expensive for a box of 24. :D
