My first encounter with Baguio’s Vizco’s strawberry shortcake was in 2013. A college dormmate brought home a piece to celebrate her victory over “hell week” (a.k.a. the week of exams and tedious requirements). I’m not one to exaggerate (okay, maybe just a little), but that first bite changed my life.
