Putobumbong or bibingka?

We often orders bibingka and puto bungbong, I like it both especially full of grated coconut and melted butter... Yummy!!! I like bibingka with salted egg and topped with butter still melting with grated coconut... And eating it still hot to warm. I like puto bungbong also the color violet, that is long about 6 inches with butter and grated coconut. Even christmas is not yet near, we buy bibingka and puto bungbong at Ferino's. The famous maker of bibingka and puto bungbong. It is much fun eating those delicasies with family ans friends and talking anything under the sun.

Oh I love putobumbong!! Gosh you just remind me that Christmas is near. I wish I am in pinas so I could eat putobumbong. Miss ko na sya... :(

I like bibingka but I like puto bumbong better. It's so delicious. Yummy, yummy.

Yes, Christmas season is already felt in our country, cold weather, some houses already decorated their house for Christmas and I also saw some vendors starting to sell putobumbong and bibingka. Anyway, I prefer bibingka than putobumbong especially if it is special. It's more delicious and got more toppings than ordinary.

Oooh bibinka and putobumbong definitely make my Christmas even more special. Even if we can easily buy these any time of the year, it's just more delicious to eat it after mass when the wind is cooler. :) I like both but if I had to choose, I'd go with bibinka. I buy the small ones which are super soft. It has to have salted egg and dried coconut for me to eat it. Otherwise, it'll just taste like plain puto. Nop one on my family makes bibinka so we just buy ours. There's a very good one in Shopwise and the best I've tasted so far is by Bahay Pastulan in San Juan.

I love to eat bibingka with salted egg and a cheeze toppings on it.You made me hungry my friend.I've used to live for four years in Nueva Ecija and i love to eat bibingka in Cabanatuan City.Bibingka partner with a Hot tea is so great.

i think i willgo for puto bumbong. bibigka is soled inside the mall already so i can buy whole year round. not like the puto bumbong i have to wait for the christmas season. but lucky here at our place i can see some who starts selling at the start of the BER-seasons. so i got a bite already last week. yum yum yummy.

I love both but I love putobumbong more! I love it with lots of cheese! My ex-boyfriend used to bring me 3 putobumbongs before he heads home. I don't know exactly where he buys it but he says it's near our church, I can't find it though. I mean, there a lot of sellers but not the one he buys it from.

Hello pehpot. I like bibingka, but I never tried one with salted egg. I think it's delicious. What I have tried is a bibingka from Davao, mixed with young coconut meat and the one with cheese. Anyways, if it's bibingka, I'll eat Have a nice day!

I like bibingka more. There was a place in Davao del Sur where we would just stop and buy bibingka. The bibingka there tastes a lot different than the ones I have tasted in the metro.

I prefer putobumbong. It's my favorite. I like bibingka too but I still crave for putobumbong during this time of year. Hope I could learn how to cook it so I can have putobumbong all year round. LOL. HUGZ!

hey hey! i would prefer puto bumbong more.. but i also try bibingka, without the salted egg.. can't wait, and it's the only time i get to try them (during Christmas season.. )

I prefer both. I love the taste of Putobumbong it's very soft and yet taste good. I love it's "ube" like quality. But, I also like bibingka the blend is just right, plus match with "niyog" for better taste. Hehehe! Christmas is in the air. You make me too much hungry!

putobumbong for me is the best "kakanin" ever invented! haha... Every time i go to "simbang gabi" i buy at least 1! Putobumbong rocks!

I had never heard of either of these until now. I would like to give them a try sometime and see if I like them as well. I am so burned out on the same old food here in the U.S.

...and you made me so hungry with this topic and that photo, that I had to take a break here for a while and eat my midnight snack.. I like putobungbong the most because it's my favorite color.. Nah, I like it because of it's "budbod" or coconut and sugar on top..Made me wanna go out now and buy..If I can find one at this hour..hehehhe.. It's so yummy but it's a forbidden food for me, because I am Diabetic..

Isn't it true that certian foods from childhood never loose their appeal. My grandmother cooked a lot of jewish foods that I never cook, but if I even smell them I can see her in her kitchen fixing them. Such fond memories

I miss those foods, i also have them always specially after the midnight mass during december. I like bibingka than putobumbong. Speically when it has a young coconut inside. Best partner for coffee in the morning.

i prefer putobumbong...i only tried it once i think.. and it's soooo delicious...i hope i can eat some again when i get back in the philippines! hmmm??yummy...

for our dear friends who are not familiar with this.. Puto bumbong -- a purple-colored Filipino dessert made of sweet rice cooked in hollow bamboo tubes that are placed on a special steamer-cooker. when cooked, they are removed from the bamboo tubes, soread with butter & sprinkled with sugar & grated coconut. they are wrapped in wilted banana leaves which keep them warm & moist until eaten. Like Bibingka, it is inexorably linked with Simbang Gabi - the catholic mass celebrated at dawn in the 9 days preceding christmas. (courtesy of wiktionary.org) indeed philippines has many appealing foods that is not common to other countries. and i'm proud filipinos are very talented. imagine we have many delicacies out of rice alone. for me, puto bumbong is the best! pehpot, i found a link for puto bumbong recipe.. :) here it is, http://filipinovegetarianrecipe.com/native_delicacies/puto_bumobong.php
