Dalawang Milkmen Choco Mousse

Tasting Notes from the Curator

Mousse is the French word for “foam”. What makes a good mousse is its light, airy, creamy, foam-like texture. Sometimes mistaken as pudding (because of how it looks), mousse is traditionally made by mixing a flavor base with whipped egg whites. The result is a light, fluffy dessert with nice air bubbles.

Dalawang Milkmen’s Chocolate Mousse is a sure contender in the local field. Filipinos often associate “Chocolate Mousse” automatically with the cake variant but this particular one made by two Frenchmen ( trust them, they know!) is 0% of that and 100% of just pure rich chocolate in a delightful creamy concoction. It has got The Bow Tie Duck seal of approval for sure!

Preparations

Enjoy as is! You might even be taking seconds.

Humble Sweet Beginnings

David & Thibault, the “Dalawang Milkmen”, arrived in the Philippines in 2015 and 2016 respectively working for French multinationals.

They have worked and evolved several years within this multinational corporate environment and after very exciting years in this world, they both wanted to try out something new, something that would be meaningful to them and to their vision and values. The temptation of entrepreneurship was there and growing.

One of the very first pillars that helped spark this venture was their willingness to work with local players and stakeholders. In a market where there are more imported goods coming in, they had set a goal that is driven towards boosting the local dairy industry. They started to meet some people in this field starting with the NDA (National Dairy Authority) who then introduced them to some farmers and a cooperative.

With much patience of working with local parties, gathering feedback from the end-user on their products and with much experimentation, they launched their first yogurts. They started at Legazpi Sunday markets and Salcedo Saturday markets until finally evolving into having their own home delivery platform.

We are delighted to have Dalawang Milkmen grace The Bow Tie Duck with their delicious products that are creating a ripple in the local industry!
