aimee sarmiento: purple oven

Ever since I learned about Purple Oven, I've been wanting to visit. A couple of friends told me that it's famous for supplying cakes and pastries for different coffee shops like Starbucks -- I was totally intrigued.

Yesterday (finally!) an officemate, who just recently went there, accompanied me. It was a divine place. Familiar looking cakes and pastries greeted me. From the outside, you wouldn't think that there's a shop inside, it was more like a factory with gray gate and low-rise "factory-like" building. A guard stands outside who helped us with the parking and directed us towards the door of the shop.
