About FVFoods Inc.

Some Filipinos have referred to FV Foods as "the Filipino's Dufflet" — a homage to Dufflet Pastries, a Toronto institution. Like Dufflet's, Flor hopes FV's pastries might be sold in cafés, food shops and high-end supermarkets.

Mel was always keen in business – from a young 10 year old kid , He started a small business of renting out komiks, selling yemas and turrones cooked by his aunt in school. When he was in his 3rd year in college as a nursing student, he opened a store in his mother’s house selling pasalubong sweets, longanisang lukban, puto seko, yema, etc.

Mel got the idea to sell baked goods after joining a Filipino trade and tourism exhibit at the CNE in 1998. He had brought some pastries that were native to his hometown of Sariaya in Quezon, a province south of the capital, Manila, that is famous for its sweets and sausages.

Ensaymada — eaten any time of the day, either as breakfast fare or a snack, and sometimes topped with shredded cheese — is the Filipinized version of the Ensaimada de Mallorca. Culinary historians often say that about 80 per cent of Filipino food has Spanish influences.

Our Mission: To bring you quality sweets, breads and pastries that caters to your distinctive taste that makes you feel at home. After all, the homesickness and cravings of fellow Filipinos started this wonderful business! Your thoughtfulness of bringing pasalubong (treats) to your loved ones is an undeniable trademark of our heritage that stands out in our multicultural community.

Another popular treat is Food for the Gods. These moist, chewy bars often make their appearance at Christmas time in the Philippines, when Filipinos — who are known for their sweet tooths — splurge on walnuts and dates, which are imported and therefore expensive.
