It was my first time to receive a special valentine surprise after more than twelve years of being single. It's such a joy to receive a bucketful of langhap-sarap Jollibee Glazed Chickenjoy treat from Jollibee on the eve of valentine's day.

I was able to try the Choco Peanut Butter cake myself and although I'm not really fond of peanut butter, I was surprised to find myself liking it. I love its velvety texture, it tastes like peanut butter, only in cake form. It's not too sweet but rather tastes just right. The chocolate perfectly complements the peanut butter.
