Taste Authentic French Pastries in Pasig : Coffee Time Cakes & Pastries

Hello Sweeties,

It has been a while, I know. I had been busy with my day job as of late and I have not been able to attend any events the past few months. I was so lucky to receive and invitation from the Rizal based foodies to join a foodie meet-up near Marcos Highway.  The shop is called Coffee Time Cakes and Pastries.

Coffee Time Cakes and Pasties is a concept store that caters to the clients of their  ATMT Car Care  company that does professional detailing for cars.  It’s a relatively small shop but it is so much more!
