    As the popular saying goes, “Money can’t buy happiness, but it can buy cake and that’s kind of the same thing.”

    Almost everyone loves sweets as they bring the kind of happiness that can only be explained by the sweet tooth. This is why when the craving comes, we try to find our fix in any way we can – a candy, a chocolate bar, a sweet fruit, or some syrupy drink. 

    And then there is something else– the decadent kind that makes you feel that life can be a lot sweeter if only you can sink your teeth into such sugary delight.

    Classic Confections is one such sweet indulgence. This little pastry shop, centrally located at Greenbelt 5 Makati, is famous for its cakes and desserts that lovers of sweets in the city rave about. Considered as one of Manila’s best specialty cakes shop, this sweet luxury for the tummy proves to be worth the forget-about-your-strict-diet-this-is-too-good moment as you savor a cake slice or two in total pleasure.

    The great news is that it has a bigger branch and a commissary kitchen in Brixton Kapitolyo, Pasig City catering to more cravings, much to the delight of its patrons from the north part of the metro.

    The store’s ambiance also provides an air of sweetness, in a subtle yet stylish way. The neat layout of the place looks appealing and inviting and their very products serve as lovely decors because of their charming colors and form on full display. The goodies and the cakes are the stars of the show here as they are not only tasty but also eye-catching.

    It also has some dainty pieces on the glass shelves and colorful portraits of its best-seller cakes that serve as wall decors. Adding to these features are the comfy and cozy interiors with a long sofa, and chocolate and cream-colored tables and chairs.

    In addition, the friendly staff is always ready to assist customers and knowledgeable about the products.
