(SPOT.ph) If you've flown with Philippine Airlines before, you probably kept your eyes peeled for the flight attendants handing out the complimentary in-flight coffee and snacks. If you're anything like us, you'd always try to take a peep at which snack they'll offer, crossing your fingers that it's either La Mesa Filipina's Guisantes Espesyal or Dolce Mia's Salted Caramel Cookies—either way it's a win-win.
While most already know that the Guisantes Espesyal is available both online and offline, not a lot of people know that Dolce Mia's Salted Caramel Cookies are too. Missed out during your last vacation? No worries. You can now skip the FOMO and go straight from the source—and the best thing? 1. It comes in larger tubs, and 2. No flight booking is required.

Where to buy Philippine Airlines' Dolce Mia cookies
Dolce Mia's posts have gone somewhat viral on social media in the past few months—an if-you-know-you-know kind of thing amongst frequent PAL passengers, should context not have been provided. And the posts were all about Dolce Mia's famous Salted Caramel Cookies being available on the ground. Read: You can purchase the cookies without booking a flight with Philippine Airlines, specifically at weekend markets across different shopping malls, like Glorietta, Shangri-La Plaza, Central Square, and Alabang Town Center.
Dolce Mia sells the Mini Salted Caramel Cookies for P150/130-gram tub. There's also the sweeter option of Mini Chocolate Chip Cookies for P150/150-gram tub—though not as popular, this is also available as an in-flight snack (and it deserves more love!). A hot take amongst those who don't like the"too sweet" options is that they prefer Dolce Mia's Mini Butter Cookies which cost P150/170-gram tub more.
Your best bet is to follow Dolce Mia on Instagram as that's where the updates on when and where they're popping up next—that, and a follow on Shopee and TikTok too just to be safe.
Because the demand for these cookies is quite high, a quick search of "Dolce Mia" on Shopee shows resellers selling it for a higher price. We're not saying you shouldn't buy from the resellers, but we wouldn't judge you if you checked out because of desperation. Been there, done that. We listen and we don't judge.
