There is this belief that the best way to a man’s or anyones heart is through the stomach. Before World War II, when my father was courting my mother, the ‘aphrodisiac’ that my mother prepared for my father was Petite Fortune. I would only taste it when a grandaunt (Rosario Arnedo Gonzalez) would bring some to the Sunday lunch that my grandmother (Rosario Valdes Gonzalez) hosted. As a child, I would stuff these bite sized jewels into my pockets and slowly gobble them up. They tasted absolutely heavenly! At that time I didn’t know how to cook nor bake or even have the guts to ask ‘how did you make them?’ When Lola Charing Arnedo Gonzalez (to distinguish her from my Lola Charing,since both were Gonzalez) passed away, I found that out the bake shop Hizon’s made them. When I would have the craving for them, I would go to Hizon’s Bake Shop and have my fill. I hardly let any bake shop or restaurant, get away with them being the only ones to fulfill my heart’s cravings. In due time, through research and experimentation, I finally came up with my own version, since I didn’t ask for the recipe from either of them.
