6 Treats That Take Us Back To Our Childhood

What was your fave childhood treat? We’ve got recipes—from cupcakes to milky candy—so you can enjoy them all over again:

1. Pastillas de Leche

This milky treat was always either pasalubong or a weekend cooking project.  

2. Cheese Cupcakes

Almost everyone has a fave version: the ones bought at the school cafeteria or the cupcakes your mom made for you and packed in your lunchbox.

3. Chocnut Turon

Turon and Chocnut always takes us back to those carefree summer afternoons.

4. Rainbow Cupcakes

Rainbow cupcakes (and cakes!) were our favorite birthday treats!

5. Classic S’mores

Who else begged their parents to pitch a tent in the backyard just so you could make s’mores?

6. Homemade Popsicles

Inexpensive popsicles were the best thing that happened to our hot summer afternoons.
