Pampanga Chefs Dennis Lim and Judy Uson Serve Up the Unexpected with New Rockwellist Confection Flavors

In a surprising twist, renowned chefs Dennis Lim and Judy Uson from Pampanga have collaborated with Christian Valdes of CMV Txokolat to create an extraordinary collection of confections for the Rockwell community at Nepo Center. The Pampanga Series Confections combine popular local flavors with luscious chocolate, resulting in a harmonious blend that is both comforting and delightful. With unique combinations like Shing-a-ling and Kasoy, Pastillas de Calamansi, Champorado Bar, Tibuk-Tibuk, and the upcoming L.A. Cheesebread bar, these confections celebrate the distinct flavors of Pampanga while pushing the boundaries of taste and texture.

Unveiling the Flavors:

1. Shing-a-ling and Kasoy:
   The accessible snack Shing-a-ling and the ubiquitous Kasoy (cashews) are merged with chocolate to create a tangy, crunchy, rich, and nutty chocolate bar. This distinctive combination offers a textural contrast that will keep you coming back for more, reminiscent of a bag of chips.
2. Pastillas de Calamansi:
   A refreshing twist on the classic pastillas, Pastillas de Calamansi skillfully balances the zesty notes of calamansi with the creamy sweetness of pastillas. This creation captures the essence of tropical indulgence, leaving a memorable and refreshing taste.
3. Champorado Bar:
   For those seeking a nostalgic taste of childhood, the Champorado Bar is a must-try. Chef Dennis Lim transforms the beloved champorado into a chocolate bar. With its rich chocolate flavor and subtle hints of rice, this creation pays homage to a breakfast staple and delivers a thrilling experience.
4. Tibuk-Tibuk:
   Judy Uson’s Tibuk-Tibuk takes center stage once again with its velvety texture and exquisite taste. Perfectly complementing the bold flavors that define The Rockwellist Confections’ Pampanga Series, Tibuk-Tibuk offers a delightful and indulgent experience.
5. L.A. Cheesebread Bar (upcoming):
   Soon to be unveiled, the L.A. Cheesebread bar draws inspiration from the popular baked goodie in Pampanga. It combines the buttery goodness of cheese bread with the indulgent sweetness of a chocolate bar, promising a unique and unforgettable craving.
