Thirteen days before her wedding day, Heart Evangelista was all smiles at the ceremonial cake cutting held in February 2 at The Music Hall of Metrowalk, Pasig City.
The event formally launched her as the brand ambassador/endorser of global brand cheesecake which Heart herself revealed was held a day after her bridal fitting.
“Ang saya-saya. Sobrang daming nagaganap sa buhay ko ngayon. Sobrang excited ako. Ang daming blessings na nangyayari. Nakaka-overwhelm,” the ecstatic bride-to-be said.
“Yesterday, sinukat ko ‘yung wedding gown ko. Naramdaman ko talaga na ikakasal na ako. I got really emotional… I’m very happy. After all the wrongs and mistakes (haha, just kidding). Sa dami ko nang iniyak, nahanap ko narin ‘yung someone who will hold my hand in this lifetime.”
Walter Co, the President and franchisee in the Philippines of the Japanese global brand cheesecake said that they recognized Heart’s gentle, elegant and multi-dimensional image. This is as a reflection of the light, delicate and sophisticated character of their cheesecakes achieved from a tradition of careful selection of the finest and freshest, all-natural ingredients.
“We are excited to announce her as our brand ambassador. A woman of finesse and grace, she perfectly represents our fine brand of cheesecakes. And we all know that she loves Chiz very much!”
During the launch, members of the media including the Philippine Showbiz Republic (PSR) tasted the Japanese-style cheesecake which is fluffy, light, and golden, to which Co said to be “baked fresh daily, using top ingredients, and absolutely no preservatives. It is recommended to finish the cake within 3 days of purchase. The cheese cake easily crinkles and folds, and melts in your mouth. A slice is deceivingly light, as its sweetness is subtle and the texture very airy.”
Heart who is not new to the food industry, having been born to a Filipino-Chinese clan of restaurateur herself, is known to be critical when it comes to her food of choice. She said she agreed to endorse it as she loves cheese and it fits her diet. “I love everything that has cheese kahit noong bata pa ako.”
When ask what could be the cheesiest thing she have done for her husband-to-be, Senator Chiz Escudero.
Heart replied: “It is loving everything about him, including his kids from previous marriage.”
She said all is set for her wedding on February 15, a day after her birthday. And compared to other celebrity nuptials, theirs will be simple.
