In the last six months, I’ve consumed more boxes of ube cheese pandesal than ever before. And I’m not complaining — not at all! Ube cheese pandesal has become one of my quarantine favourites, so much so that I’ve started thinking about where to buy more flavoured pandesal online.
To my pleasant surprise, a lot of online bakeries are now selling pandesal with even more fascinating flavours. And while ube cheese will remain close to my heart whatever happens (first love never dies!), I’m super excited to explore all my other options. I’m sure I’m not the only one wondering where to buy flavoured pandesal online, so here’s a list all of us can refer to whenever our cravings hit us.

Where to buy flavoured pandesal online
1. Ambos Panaderia
It’s no surprise that Ambos Panaderia traces its ancestry to the iconic Ambos Mundos Restaurant. Both seem to show commitment to quality food that warm the hearts of Pinoys. Where the restaurant sells classic Filipino dishes like tapa and adobo, the bakery offers quintessential Pinoy pastries: ensaymada, cheese rolls — and of course, pandesal.
Just so you know, everything in Ambos Panaderia’s menu is served in a variety of flavours. As for pandesal, they offer ube cheese, strawberry cream cheese, pandan ube, double chocolate, bavarian, and cheese flavours. A box of 12 sells for as low as ₱145.

Based in Binondo, Tenthbread Bakery has long been a go-to bakeshop for Manila foodies. The wholesale bakery offers baguettes, croissants, and other speciality bread; but lately, their flavoured pandesal has been gaining the most popularity.

4. Flavours by Yna
“What started as a craving and curiosity got me thinking of different flavours other than the usual ube halaya,” the Instagram bio of Flavours by Yna reads. “More flavours soon.”
Indeed, Flavours by Yna is one of the more experimental online shops when it comes to flavoured pandesal. As of writing, the shop just uploaded a new variant — Pande Oreo, a flavour seemingly derived from oreo cookies. Other pandesal flavours include ham and cheese, black forest, pink custard, matcha, ube, red velvet, chocolate, blueberry, and butternut; we’re looking forward to more variants in the coming days!

When I was a kid, I thoroughly enjoyed dipping my pandesal in Milo — this is why I find Buenos Días Panadería’s Milo Buns so nostalgic. Their Milo-flavoured pandesal is topped with Milo powder; it’s filled with Milo-flavoured cream, too!
On top of their Milo pandesal, Buenos Días Panadería also sells Pan de Tablea and Ube y Queso. According to customer reviews, all variants are equally delectable! (Bonus fun fact: This store is named after its owner, Elyra Buendia del Rosario, who also happens to be Ely Buendia’s sister!)
