That looks yummy! Yes never accept defeat…especially with those good ingredients. MM, how long does a Bacardi rhum last when you open one? I mean does it lose its spirit after how many days? I use Tanduay Rhum which though very cheap is actually good for only one day. :(

mikel, thanks for your concern, I really do appreciate it. A lot of these “goodies” were done before my last check-up that highlighted the fatty liver… so for the past week or two I haven’t had anything really sweet, but I haven’t starved myself either, if you know what I mean. :)

hey MM, i thought you’re trying to lose weight? stop making desserts then! cut the sugar, butter and carbs from your diet, as in now!

these look absolutely sinful; the giant version looks specially scrumptious. Silvanas are one of my favorite indulgences; I froze and hand-carried two dozen beloved pieces from Manila back to Toronto on my last trip…
