Really, what’s Halloween without chocolate? Beyond the usual trick-or-treat chocolate candy bars, you can also go the more grand route with a good ol’ chocolate cake—like the limited-edition Halloween Spooky Cake (P750/six inches, P950/eight inches) by Quezon City-based shop Malia Home Bakery. You can’t beat its combo of an old-fashioned chocolate cake with a dark front that practically glistens against the light, plus a light coffee custard in between—but the kicker is its topping of marshmallows decorated to look like ghosts. Just message them on social media to get your fix.

For orders, send a message to Malia Home Bakery on Facebook or Instagram.
