Dessert Strip by Chef Maribel opened last November 28, 2011 at the Second Floor Area of Robinson’s Big R Mall (in front the grocery), Cagayan de Oro City. Chef Maribel was one of the students of Celebrity Chef Hassett Go. She loves baking and has been doing it since high school. She started her baking business from her own home catering to family, friends and bazaars until she decided to open up Dessert Strip.

Dessert Strip boasts a variety of delectable cakes and pastries from the known revel bars, food for the gods, macapuno bars, zebra bars, cup cakes and many others. They also serve uniquely baked carrot cakes, malunggay cakes, blueberry cheesecakes and more. This entire strip of scrumptious treats are home baked by Chef Maribel herself. Yes guys, 100% Homemade!!

Aside from the common pastry treats which by the way she baked it uncommonly good, she pride herself with her own signature cake called Lala’s Signature Cake. She made this mouth-watering cake herself by carefully combining ingredients. Anyway, I bought one layer of this cake because it was also my husband’s birthday when Dessert Strip opened. And with all honesty, I love it! It was so delicious and the price of Php 600.00 was fair enough considering the hefty ingredients she used.

Dessert Strip is open during mall hours of Robinson’s Big R. Most of their products are already packed in a way that you can buy them as “pasalubongs” when you go home. Chef Maribel also announced that they will cater to birthday cakes and cupcakes soon!
