Polvorón is a Filipino powder shortbread cookie, made of flour, sugar, butter and milk. Donya Lina Craft Filipino Polvorón are more creamy/buttery and their flavors are fresh and unique! Just look at the presentation and flavors.
I chatted with owner Kristina to learn more about her tasty creations:
Dee: How did these unique polvorón flavors come into fruition? By accident?
Kristina: I actually just think of flavor combinations and go into my test kitchen to try them out. Usually the flavor combinations I create in my head turn out great only after a few attempts.
D: What was your first flavor?
K: My first 3 flavors were cookies n cream, ube crunch, and fruity pebbles.
D: With the holidays fast approaching, are there special holiday flavors coming?
K: I DO have some holiday flavors up my sleeve. I’ll be going into my test kitchen this week to try them out. I’m possibly thinking of a cinnamon roll and am working on a collab with another local home bakery (might be doing a mochi polvorón).
D: Do you make custom flavors?
K: I actually am not taking any custom flavor orders, BUT I am always open to suggestions and do consider these when I’m thinking of new flavors.
D: How close are you to launching the gluten-free line?
K: I will hopefully be launching GF and vegan polvorón at the end of this year OR the beginning of this year.
