I usually make my own halo-halo. The toppings that i like to put on are, sweet bananas (really sweet), macapuno (soft and tasty), leche flan (has to be creamy) ube of good shepherd's. Also some jelly and soft black pearls.Those were the only ingredients i buy for my halo-halo.

I also enjoy halo-halo very much although eating it is painful for me because of my sensitive teeth. I believe the reason why halo-halo is a Pinoy favorite is that it's really cold - very fit for the temperature in our tropical country. The blending of the flavors in halo-halo is also very nice. The combination of the creaminess of the milk and the beans, the sour-sweet taste of the fruits, and many more contribute to the delicious taste of what I could call the 'National Deser of the Philippines'.. YUMM!!!
