A trip to Iloilo, no matter how short, requires pasalubong or souvenirs. The usual stuff includes food like piaya, pinasugbo, barquillos and biscocho. The go to place for these can be according to one's preferences but for me the one stop shop is Biscocho Haus. While they have many branches in the city including kiosks at the malls, the usual store I go to to buy pasalubong is along the national highway en route to the airport from the city. The roadside store is a convenient place to purchase pasalubong.

Inside the store are various goodies for pasalubong displayed inside wooden cabinets.

 |
The most popular are the biscocho, butterscotch, piaya, barquiron, banadas and pinasugbo.

There are many products to choose from for pasalubong
|
 |
There are small and bigger packs depending on the quantity you want to purchase and/or distribute as pasalubong.

Most of the items can crumble or can be crushed if not handled or packed carefully. I would suggest that you prepare your bags for these whether you plan to hand-carry them or place them inside the luggage you will be checking-in. Another option is to have a separate bag for the pasalubong or to have them placed inside a carton box.
