Just judging by its picture, you can tell that it is incredibly delicious. It is nice to know that there are lots of things that you can do with mangosteen.

the picture of the cooked puff pastry looked exactly like Pepperidge Farm’s apple turnover.

I guess I will have to look for puff pastry next time I am in Makati.

I sure would be looking for puff pastry every time I shop in the bigger stores. You think SM Hypermarket has it? S & R .. you say .. hmmmm.

I like easy … and really impressive looking, ha.

MC, yes eggwash would help the final color of the pastry. Apicio, you know, you are right, otap does seem similar, though I suspect they make it with lard rather than butter… eatit1, cream cheese is in the next batch of experiments! Joey, and you can make savory snacks too… a little cheese, an olive spread, chorizos… yum! ntgerald, I bought puff pastry, slightly different from filo/phyllo, though they sell filo at Santis if you need some. CecileJ, these were definitely the “barombado” school of pastry…but with a sugar low, speed was of the essence… :)
