According to a recent article from the Chicago Eater , Crumbs.nd.Creams plans to open its doors at 5914 W Lawrence Avenue.
A representative of Crumbs.nd.Creams was not immediately available for commentary upon What Now Chicago’s request.
According to the article, Crumbs.nd.Creams plans to open sometime in late April. “Mharloe and Katrina Requiron are taking a leap of faith in opening their Jefferson Park bakery. They created Crumbs.nd.Creams in 2020 when the pandemic created an increased interest in baked goods.”
“Crumbs.nd.Creams was born out of the nostalgia Filipino immigrants have for sylvana, a cream-stuffed cookie. These cookies, which are sometimes spelled as “silvana,” have a French origin with a texture similar to a macaron and a crisp exterior. They’re often served cold and stuffed with buttercream.”
“They’re widely available in the Philippines, but not so much in the U.S. The Requirons’ operation has been a success and they were featured on Good Morning America back in September 2022.”
“As the pandemic operation grew, it became time to open a public-facing component, a place where customers could regularly get their fix of sylvanas and other Filipino baked goods. That will happen in by late April when Crumbs.nd.Creams debut in a Jefferson Park space that they’ll share with another restaurant, Taste of Philippines. Each operation will take a side, splitting sweet and savory.”
“Crumbs.nd.Creams puts its spin on their cookies with 10 different flavors. Flavors like ube, matcha, butter pecan, mocha, and flan. Katrina Requiron writes they’re excited to unleash more varieties during the summer and experiment with flavors. Coconut is a flavor that’s popular in Filipino baked goods and one that they’re excited to showcase.”
