We dropped by at Rowena’s Pasalubong Store before heading back to Manila from an event in Tagaytay. I bought Apple Tart, Choco Tart and my favorite Buko Pie.
I like the crust as it’s crispy and fresh. It’s unique from other buko pie but it’s just too sweet for my taste. The filling is not really tender or maybe, I got an old buko coconut meat.
It’s quite thick than the other buko pies I’ve tasted. It looks yummy but I still prefer the taste of D’ Original.
My own verdict: I rate Rowena’s 6/ 10. I still prefer D’ Original from Los Banos Laguna which I gave almost a perfect score of 9/10.
Other Buko Pies I tried:
Letty’s: 7/10
Collete’s: 6/10
My two kids on the other hand like buko pie from Rowena’s. What I like from their product is Rowena’s Apple Tart. It tastes great. I hardly eat apple pie or apple tart, only I remember eating a lot of apple pie when freshly baked during my Greece’s time. Rowena’s apple tart is yummy that you surely will find yourself having a bite after another bite.

Really sis? D’ Original buco pie is yummy? Masa masarap pa kesa Collette’s?
Oh I miss this! I’m a Laguna girl and this was a must when traveling to Los Banos
i haven’t tried this but Rowena’s buko tarts are my fave! try the ube tarts too!
I agree that their tarts are good. You should also try their sans rival.
sarap naman, kaka-miss!
dami pala nila pero parang laging collete’s kami, will check that d’original kapag nakauwe.
visiting from FTF, hope you can visit me back. thanks and have a great week.
It’s been years since I had buko pie!
