I’ve been a big fan of LAVA since it opened in SM Aura. Its delectable cheese tarts are amazing. And I feel great supporting a local brand using local products. I’ve heard news though that Lava launched a new line and I just have to try it myself!

Hello again, LAVA Cheese Tarts.

I’ve been busy with work lately that I hardly get to visit malls. But an opportunity to drop by Uptown Mall came one day and I decided to swing by LAVA before attending an event. Luckily, this LAVA branch offers its newest product, Lava Eruptions Premium Cheese Ice Cream (PHP85, cone | PHP135, cup with three toppings of your choice).

I decided to go with waffle cone as it makes me feel that I get my money’s worth. But I failed to consider that it was so hot lately that my ice cream began to melt in less than 30 seconds!

I hurriedly went up to the 4th floor open area to take nice photos but the ice cream was in terrible shape by then (hence not being in this blog).

Taste-wise, it was pretty good. It had that cheese taste that I like though not as pronounced as the one you’d get from the cheese tarts. I guess the milk somehow masked the sharp taste of cheese. I also recommend that you indulge in this treat in a cone as it could get really messy.

I’ll definitely go back and try it with toppings next time.

LAVA Cheese Tarts is located at Lower Ground, Uptown Bonifacio Mall, 9th Avenue, Bonifacio Global City, Taguig City.
