The highest safety standards that would help people shop safely during the pandemic is to give the shoppers an assurance that their safe and the local government of Pasig was recently conferred the safety seal to Estancia Mall.

Since the start of COVID-19 pandemic, Ortigas Malls have put in place protocols that have made malling a positive, stress-free experience, with the well-being and safety of shoppers of paramount importance. This includes the use of accredited contact tracing apps such as SafePass and strict implementation of IATF’s mandated safety protocols.

The Safety Seal Certification Program issued by the City Government of Pasig aims to assure the customers and the public in general of establishments’ compliance with the minimum public health standards set by the government in all private business establishments, selected public places, and government offices. The Safety Seal will be valid for six (6) months from the date it was issued. It’s renewable, subject to continued compliance with the given eligibility requirements.

“This Safety Seal showcases Ortigas Malls’ commitment to the safety and convenience of mall-goers as well as the greater community.

Renee Bacani, VP for Ortigas Malls.

Jill Sandique is well known for her passion in innovating the cacao business not just here in the Philippines but also in the international market. A lot have seen how she wanted to help many people in this kind of field and her dedication to pursue this because of her childhood dream. Let’s discover the adventure of Jill Sandique from being culinary educator and consultant to being a great pursuer of cacao business.

A pastry chef’s cacao journey

Her work on chocolate for more than 25 years as a culinary educator and consultant has led pastry chef Jill Sandique back to a childhood passion. Chef Jill headed the board of judges at the 2021 Philippine Cacao Quality Awards (PCQA) which selected the winning entries to represent the Philippines at the Cocoa of Excellence (CoEx) Programme during the Salon du Chocolatin Paris this coming October.

Chef Jill has studied chocolate making abroad, eventually completing the Career French Pastry Program at Peter Kump’s New York Cooking School (now the Institute of Culinary Education) where she graduated with the most coveted BlueRibbon Award in 1992 (and later inducted into its Alumni Hall of Achievement). She witnessed the emergence of artisanchocolate making which nurtured her appreciation for the craft.

When she came back to the Philippines, she developed her signature pistachio sans rival and mango pavlova, beloved specialty desserts she became known for. Inbetween her duties as chef instructor and consultant, she worked with cocoa and chocolate manufacturers and distributors locally as well as in Singapore andIndonesia to develop recipes for them and her own clients.

Her longest collaboration at 17 years is with Commodity Quest, Inc., which exclusively imports the premium cacao powder and chocolate ingredients under the deZaanbrand.They invited Chef Nick Malgieri, her mentor and teacher at Peter Kump’s,forthe WOFEXtradeshowsto showcase chocolate recipes using deZaan.

Growing up with cacao

Chef Jill’s love for chocolate began at her family’sSto. Niño Farms back in her hometown of Makilala inCotabato. The family started with crops such as coconut, coffee, cacao, corn, and rice. The farm initially produced certified palay seeds before focusing on rubber and banana as its two major crops.

Her father, the late Epifanio Al. Sandique was an agriculturist by training. Mr. Sandique worked as a banker and did agricultural research at the farm. He was part of the Philippine Cacao Committee in the late 1970s that published The Philippines Recommends for Cacao 1979.

The farm served as chef Jill’s informal training ground to learn about how farmers grow food, an experience that would later influence her work as a pastry chef. Her parents instilled the value of hard work at the farm, teaching them the key steps in growing, harvesting and processing rice, coffee and cacao.

“For the cacao, they would teach us how the cacao pod is harvested and we actually did some of the basic steps—something that the hands of a child can do.” The Sandiques would expose their children to farm work such that it became an integral part of their childhood.

Selecting quality Philippine cacao beans

Chef Jill regularly upgrades her chocolate know-how through trainings abroad especially in South and Central Americawith its long history and tradition of growing and processing cacao. She has studied cacao post-harvest processing, chocolate making, andchocolate profiling in the U.S., Ecuador, Peru and Belizeas well as cacao bean grading in the Netherlands.She is the only Filipina who is a certified Level 3 graduate of the International Institute of Chocolate and Cacao Tasting in the UK.

She put to good use these trainings and her ability to discern quality cacao beans as a judge at the 2019 International Chocolate Awards (ICA)Asia Pacific in Taiwan, and at the ICA World Finals in Italy. Judges conducted a blind tasting of the chocolates from which Philippine chocolate makers won several awards.

Chef Jill also participated as a grand juror for the ICA Asia Pacific via remote online judging in 2020. Then came the opportunity to be closer to home as chairpersonfor the judging committee at the Philippine Cacao Quality Award from December 2020 to January 2021.

When selecting the best cacao beans, Chef Jill adheres to strict selection standards. She strives for perfection, a trait influenced by her training under Chef Nick Malgieri as well as her parents whose work as agriculturist and doctor respectively, relied on making the right decisions in the farm and in the hospital. Only the highest qualifiedcacao beans, cocoa and chocolate truly make it on her list.

What’s next for chef Jill

Her other work as the lead trainer and program director of the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) Manila Council of Chefsand key opinion leader of USDA Cooperators for the past 15 years has helped her mentor others in cooking and baking with quality U.S. ingredients.

When the Puentespina family of the MalagosCacao DevelopmentCenterin Davao invited her to help train seven farmer cooperatives from Davao Oriental on post-harvest processing of cacao beans, she gladly agreed. But she requested that the farmers also be trained on the business side of cacao as well as composting waste by-productsto fully equip them.

In a sense, this is Chef Jill going back to her roots. While she will still work with clients and share recipes on social media, she wishes to spotlight the next generation of chefs. “There are new chefs coming in, pastry chefs especially. I plan to step back a little and give them the place to shine because they’re all very good,” she says.

Her life’s work now brings her back to cacao to improve the competitiveness of the local cacao industry in the international stage.She hopes to share what she has learned about cacao bean processing and educate others who have little opportunity to be formally trained. “Majority of our plants here belong to the category of fine cacao in which there is great potential.”

This potential begins with growing good cacao.As the world takes notice of Philippine chocolate, chef Jill hopes to encourage local cacao farmers to aim higher in producing the finest cacao they were destined to grow. “I hope that every cacao farmer here will be able to ferment and process their cacao in a manner that is at par with international standards, which I think is achievable.”

She is not only someone who strives for great things in life, but she also goes out of her way to help others through her passions. From just a simple childhood dream until she pursues and mold this into bigger opportunities for many people. Indeed her dedication for cacao is truly exceptional for she innovates it to become a great product and inspire people. The journey she took is something that will reflect how she put her heart in all her crafts.

San Juan City’s municipal government has partnered with Ortigas Malls to establish Theatre Mall in Greenhills Mall as a vaccination location beginning June 1, 2021, in an effort to make immunization more accessible and convenient for its inhabitants.

San Juan City has immunized a total of 27,216 people in the A1, A2, and A3 categories, accounting for 32 percent of the target population, since the vaccine campaign began. The designated Cinemas 1 and 2 of the Theatre Mall at Greenhills Mall will be able to cater and increase immunizations up to 1,500 vaccines every day as a result of this agreement.

 “We chose to partner with the Greenhills Mall not only because it has always been supporting the local government for the longest time in terms of our COVID-19 response and interventions but also because we want to end our fight against COVID-19 right here where it started, which also happens to be our main commercial area and business district,” said Mayor Zamora.

With the rise of uncertainty due to the current situation, Ortigas Malls continues to provide comfort and stability through innovative solutions and partnerships. With its Feel Good Today, Enjoy Everyday campaign, Ortigas Malls wants to cultivate a mindset of positivity and hope amongst the community and its patrons.

“We are grateful to be chosen as a partner by the San Juan local government. The doors of Ortigas Malls will always be open and ready to provide comfort and hope to everyone. Our Feel Good Today, Enjoy Everyday campaign is about enjoying the now and bringing positivity to our mall goers and through this partnership, we want to be able to highlight that.” said Arch. Renee Bacani, VP for Ortigas Malls.

Starting June 1, 2021, the Cinemas 1 and 2 of the Theatre Mall at Greenhills Mall will cater to the A2 and A3 registered residents of San Juan City. Once IATF gives a go signal to inoculate those under A4, Theater Mall will convert into a vaccination center exclusively for registered A4 non-San Juan residents.

The Filoil Flying V Center will continue to inoculate San Juan residents under all allowed categories. The vaccination schedule will be from 9:00 in the morning to 5:00 in the afternoon. Registration for the A4 priority Group can be done at the San Juan City’s Vaccination Registration Online Portal at https://vaxreg.sanjuancity.gov.ph/vaccine_registration/public/ but with separate options for both the A4 subgroups of residents and non-residents.

Beauty and wellness services may not be high on your priority list right now, but we could all need a break from the stress of the pandemic. It is more important than ever for us to engage in self-pampering on a daily basis. It is not only enjoyable, but it is also incredibly helpful to your health, particularly given that we spend so much of our day indoors.

Level up your skincare routine with a gentle cream                                                                                                Keep dry skin and acne growth at bay by applying lotion or cream right after your shower routine.

Beauty products are so hype now in the market and a lot of people are looking for a soap that will truly give enhancement and glow to their skin and that is what Kawaii Whitening Soap was created for. To give that whitening needs that every Filipinos must have. I’ve tried and tested this soap, and all I can say is that it effectively whitens and brightens my complexion. I’m really into those products that really give benefits to me and I was amazed by this product most especially since it comes with different variants that will suit well to our preference.

Kawaii Whitening Soap, which was launched virtually on Facebook, was favorably greeted by its thousands of fans. Global Care Cosmetics Corporation’s Kawaii Whitening Soap is the newest soap on the market. The firm is dedicated to providing globally competitive products that cater to the demands of millions of Filipinos.

Why Kawaii? is a campaign that asks why people like Kawaii. The company’s virtual launch, which included trade partners, media, and customers, aimed to show every Filipina why Kawaii is the greatest option for her skin whitening needs. Kawaii Whitening Soap claims to give you a soft glow and whiter skin after just five days of continuous use.

According to Mr. Leonardo Aquino, vice president for Sales, “Our initial challenge during the product’s development was to meticulously choose the active ingredients to ensure the whitening effectiveness of Kawaii Whitening Soap.” He added, “We chose the most effective active ingredients, which is the reason why Kawaii has triple whitening action and can deliver faster results. Every Filipina will get better and faster whitening action compared to higher-priced options.”

Papaya, green papaya, kojic, and glutathione are the four variants of Kawaii Whitening Soap. The proteolytic enzyme papain, found in papaya, is well known for its ability to reduce skin darkening and discolouration. It even eliminates dark circles under the eyes. On the other hand, Kojic inhibits the creation of an amino acid required for the production of melanin, a pigment that influences skin color. Furthermore, glutathione is a powerful antioxidant that aids in skin lightening.

Because of the variety, everyone can find one that is right for their skin type and whitening needs. It has been dermatologically tested, Halal certified, and FDA approved, ensuring that it is safe and effective for every Filipina to use.

Why Kawaii? Ms. Sue Ramirez, a Kawaii Whitening Soap endorser, sang a Keiko Necesario original While We Are Young, which gave Virtual Launch a boost. “Ms. Sue is a perfect fit with Kawaii, not only does she is personally kawaii but also, what she represents as an individual, a celebrity, and a performer, appeals to the potential users of Kawaii Whitening Soap,” says Mr. Leonardo Aquino.

All who tuned in to the live stream were treated to a fashion display featuring Kawaii models, each with a bar of Kawaii Whitening Soap in their hands, all set to the music of Ms. Sue Ramirez. Kawaii Whitening Soap also gave away goodies to the spectators.

The truth is now out! Kawaii Whitening Soap can now be found at a variety of supermarkets, grocery stores, and convenience stores. If you want to learn more about Kawaii Whitening Soap and join in future promotions, like and follow KawaiiSkincarePh on Facebook and Instagram. Why is Kawaii so popular?
