One of the main selling points of this restaurant has got to be the ambiance. If you're looking for an Instagrammable dessert cafe, this is the place to be. The tiramisu ice cream, on the other hand, is quite an experience. It's a great concoction sweet and salty, no other dessert place has got to come close. Hope to come back again soon.
I really really wanted to try this place out since it started but I simply couldn't take in to spend 300 bucks for an ice cream although it looked really really tempting. after years of dreaming on when I'd be able to try their ice cream, luckily for me, a friend treated here hehe. I had their injeolmi tiramisu ice cream for 265php. At first bite, it was heaven. Their ice cream is good, milky but not too thick. I think it's nicer to have it a bit thicker. The injeolmi bites added flavor as it's like mochi, chewy. Overall i liked their ice cream but I hope they do something about the price. I really find it too expensive.
Food Ordered:
⭐️ Classic Tiramisu Ice Cream
⭐️ Midas Touch Ice Cream
⭐️ Classic Tiramisu Cake
⭐️ Matcha Tiramisu Cake
Overall Experience:
My family and I love Kiss the Tiramisu very much. We would often stop by whenever we are around the area. Our favorites would be both the classic Tiramisu cake and ice cream. Both are very creamy yet aren’t too sweet. Although the desserts here taste delicious, it is rather expensive for dessert. We will definitely go back to try the rest.
I think it just so so .too sweet. But the environment is good. Everything is clean and hygienic, and gloves are always used when operating. It would be better to wear a mask.
matcha tiramisu is php300, good for two and tastes legit! ice cream is also good. ordered the plum ade and it tastes super refreshing. would go back
again
The ambiance is chill and the dessert is perfect.
We went here to get some desserts after we had lunch. We tried the Tiramisu and Matcha mini cake. It is mini, but i think worth the 300 price because it's good! Creamy, and not sweet! We love both flavors, tho i personally like the Matcha.
My friend, who loves coffee, really liked the ice coffee here. That's saying a lot since she drink coffee everyday!
We will go back to try the ice creams and more coffee for my friend 😁
I ordered their Americano. It’s decent coffee for P80. The pastries and the ice cream, however, are quite pricey. Would go back for the coffee though.
After a 10 minute leisurely drive, I arrived at Three Central where Kiss the Tiramisu is located. It's a breeze to park on a Saturday late afternoon plus street parking is free.
We got the Midas Touch (P295) and the new Midnight Kiss (P95).
The Midas Touch had a bit of drama as there was a 24k edible gold leaf foil draped on one side of the ice cream. This particular offering concocted by Chef Kat Diploma for this Seoul-based cafe is available only in the Philippines. It seeks to incorporate Philippine favorites ube and leche flan into the palette of the Korean sweet shop. It actually works well with the vanilla soft-serve as the ube flavor is close to authentic and has the texture of this root crop. It is not overly sweet and pinipig or grains add to the layering of flavor and texture. I could also taste some coconut in the mix. What sets KtT apart from other dessert and ice cream shops is that they first spread some mascarpone cheese on the sides of the goblet and this combined with the vanilla and other ingredients like ube and the leche flan leads to flavor collaboration that is rich, unique and delicious.
The new Midnight Kiss is vanilla soft-serve in a dark chocolate waffle cone and drizzled with dark chocolate sauce. It is a welcome addition to their line up and a satisfying cone. Just like the cone of Bebe Rouge there is a surprise at the bottom...KtT's is a chocolate kiss.
The coffee here is my to go to, their bestseller called “Kissing Coffee” which is their bestseller. Their ice cream is great, but a bit too expensive for me.
I love their kissing coffee and midas touch. At first I didn't like one of their staff since he was a bit cranky and unwelcoming. I haven't seen him recently so zi think they already fired him or he resigned. Overall experience is really good but they can work on their ambiance more.
my favorite was the midas touch. i tried it a couple of times already, and it always leave a nice taste to end my day. i'm a fan of ube and leche flan, so this one is perfect for me.
so far, from my experience, the servings were not that consistent. my first try of this is still the best so far, the proportion of ingredients they had provided for my very first midas touch was spot on. i hope they find the perfect proportions and be consistent. but in any way, it was an excellent experience. i'm kinda craving for this again, so, see you soon.
I love the ambiance of this place! It's very chic and elegant--perfect for alone times in the afternoon or a meet cute date or even a nice meet with the girls.
Tbh the ice cream wasn't with its price. However, all the social media points you'll be earning is well worth going here. But hey, I actually loved my Midas Touch ice cream. It's a cool halo halo twist with a bit of affordable luxury.
Classic Tiramisu Ice Cream
Midas Touch
Matcha Latte
All mouthwatering and will satisfy your cravings.
And take note, the goblet is yours :)
Kiss the Tiramisu is the best place for desserts :)
I admit I only came here because I'm really curious to try an ice cream topped with edible 24K gold but when I had the first taste of Midas Touch, its just more than that. Imagine taking the best parts of halo-halo then mix it in with the creamy soft serve then to top it off the gold layer. It's really good that I have the willpower not to finish everything in one sitting. Will definitely come back to try other flavors and the coffee and cakes too! 😊
My friends and I tried Midas Touch soft ice cream with 24k edible gold leaf. Some called it the “billionaires ice cream”. It’s like a Filipino halo halo, it’s so yummy because they are using Korean Milk 😍 You can also bring home their fancy goblet too. The Matcha tiramisu cake is so delicious, you can’t stop digging into it. It’s also good for sharing as well. Everything in it is perfect. I highly recommend this dessert cafe that combines tiramisu and ice cream
I've been hearing about this place for quite some time now, so when my mom wants to have dessert, I suggested this place. Sinadya talaga namin ito. From Manila to Makati, just to get to try this shop. We went for their famous ice creams, the original tiramisu, matcha, and the midas touch. The tiramisu flavor really had the coffee soaked spongecakes on top of their creamy ice cream, as well as chocolate shavings. My mom is not a fan of sweets but she liked the tiramisu ice cream a lot. The matcha one was quite a treat too! I love matcha and this place did it justice. With luscious matcha syrup and what seemed like buttery cookies with the icecream ~ I prefer the original over this one though. And last but not the least, the famed masterpiece ~ the midas touch. The midas touch is like a broken down halo-halo, ube syrup, creamy leche flan, the works, and not to mention, 24K edible gold leaf. Not to mention, you can take home their fancy goblets too! Shister loves free things. 😍
Kiss the Tiramisu is a cozy dessert place that has sundaes, French toast and pancakes and of course, a couple flavors of tiramisu.
What to get....
Tiramisu Ice cream - a good portion of mascarpone cheese, creamy ice cream, cocoa powder.
Matcha Tiramisu Cake - a must if you are both a tiramisu and a matcha lover.
Midas Ice Cream - Pinoy flavors of Ube and Leche Flan topped with Gold Leaf!
Injeolme Ice cream - rice cakes like mochi and toasted sesame powder
The classic tiramisu is subtle but doesn't disappoint. Their soft serve cream is delish, not too sweet but creamy and blends well with the rest of the elements on the tiramisu. You'll get a surprise center with bits of coffee chips and whip cream.
I could sit here forever.
Heck, I wouldn’t even care if I grew fat (because it’s not hard to if you love food) and the office cutie found me in a compromising position a.k.a. with a goblet of ice cream in front of me and a spoonful of the guilty pleasure that is their soft serve ice cream. Their desserts are just that good. Yes, BTS.
At this time, there are four variants of their ice cream - the classic tiramisu (P265), matcha tiramisu (P265), injeolmi tiramisu ice cream (P265) and the very Pinoy Midas Touch (P295). These do look rich and if you’re not big on desserts, it can easily serve 2 people.
We tried three for these yummy treats. The Classic Tiramisu is exactly like that creamy Italian dessert - with the soaked-in-coffee sponge, real mascarpone cheese, their dense, creamy soft serve, a dusting of coffee and dark chocolate shavings. It was heaven in the mouth. The Injeolmi version had bits of the Korean rice cake it was named for, which tasted like a sweet espasol, and layers of ice cream and mascarpone cheese with a sprinkle of powdered dried beans. This wasn’t as sweet as the classic version and I loved the itty bits of rice cake. Now the Mida Touch was a real indulgence - it’s topped with real 24K edible gold leaf. The rest of the ice cream with their take on the classic halo-halo - ube jam, leche flan, crispy barquillos and that impressive gold. (Sadly, I could not try out the gold parts. Allergies.) By the way, you can take home the acrylic goblets!
While waiting for our other dishes, I had a chance to try the Matcha Latte (Php 180.00) and the Sikhye (Php 180.00). Sikhye is a Korean sweet rice drink typically drunk as a dessert. I liked that they were not too sweet.
Since I had not lunch yet, the Gimbap (Php 270.00) and the Philly Roll (P270) were light but filling snacks. These variants are a bit milder in flavor compared to others available in the market but still taste good, of course.
If you’re looking for breakfast staples, you might want to try KTT’s French Toast, with fresh fruit slices to cut through the richness. You can also try their fluffy Matcha Pancake and Tiramisu Pancake, which were perfectly delicious.
Another nicely-packaged treat was the Matcha Tiramisu Cake (P300), which tasted like their ice creams - rich but not too sweet. This comes in a clear acrylic box which you can take home too.
Overall a lovely cafe/dessert bar to hang out at, and I can’t wait til they open up a branch in the northern part of town.
This famous Korean Dessert Café that took Korea by storm is quickly gaining its popularity in the Philippines. Thanks to Shirley Vy of Foodealogy Inc., the local franchisee of Kiss the Tiramisu, for bringing these delicious goodies to Makati City.
I was invited for a foodie meet-up to try their items on the menu, including the new ones. With the help of Chef Kat Diploma, who is very passionate about her job, we were able to have enough knowledge about the products. We were informed that the spoons, as well as the gold-rimmed acrylic wine glass, which you can take home after eating your ice cream, came all the way from Korea. Premium ingredients for their ice creams, cakes, etc are straight from Korea as well! So authentic!
We started with Hot Matcha Latte (P180). A healthier choice if you need a gentle boost in a day. Matcha is a bit stronger here which I personally like.
If you prefer sweet latte with a twist, Iced Caramel Cheese Cream Latte (P245) is a great choice. The taste is a combination of sweet, sour and salty. Perfect for an afternoon chill!
We tried 3 out of 4 ice cream flavors of Kiss the Tiramisu. These are:
🍦Classic Tiramisu Ice Cream (P265)
🍦 Injeolmi Tiramisu Ice Cream (P265)
🍦 Midas Touch (P295)
Mascarpone plays a big role in making their ice cream extra special. This premium ingredient makes the ice cream more creamy, milky and tasty!
Classic Tiramisu is my favorite of all. This is really good! heavenly good!!!The taste is strong and sweet at the same time. This is what I really like for my ice cream flavor. The combination of mascarpone, crushed cookies, coffee liqueur, cocoa powder, soft serve and chocolate shavings is something to die for! I can't get over it! Delicious!
If you prefer something that is not too sweet, Injeolmi Tiramisu is for you. It has Korean sweet rice cakes, drizzled with roasted soy bean sauce and dusted with roasted soy bean powder. The flavor is very light and unique.
Midas touch is exclusively to the Philippines and the taste is somehow common to us. They made use of local ingredients like our classic favorites Ube and Leche Flan together with crushed Barquillos, drizzled with Ube sauce and finished with a 24K edible Gold Leaf! Eat like a royalty! This reminds me of our Halo-Halo in soft serve form. Yummm! A good choice too!
With abundant green tint of matcha on top, Matcha Tiramisu Cake (P300) is a real jaw dropper and eye catcher. This cake is rich, creamy and overall MATCHAraaap (delicious)! As it comes with a box, this cake is a perfect gift for your matcha-loving friends.
They also served non-coffee drinks:
🥤Apple Mango Ade (P180)
🥤Green Grape Ade (P180)
I personally loved Green Grape Ade because it is refreshing! While Apple Mango Ade is a mixture of sweet and sour.
Here are the new items we tried:
🥢 Kimbap (P270)
🥢 Philly Roll (P270)
🥣 Pumpkin Soup (P150)
🥞 Tiramisu Pancake (P200)
🥞 Matcha Tiramisu Pancake (P200)
🍞 French Toast (P195)
🥛 Sikhye (P180)
I will rank them based on what I find most appealing to least appealing.
1. Philly Roll or Philadelphia Roll. It has kani and some veges in it. The rice is sticky, which I personally love. Topped with cream cheese and tempura flakes, this dish is more appealing than Kimbap or Gimbap. I prefer this one than the other. Cheesy and delicious!
2. Tiramisu Pancake and Matcha Tiramisu Pancake. This is just the way I want my pancake to look and taste. I want it creamy, puffy and in layers! They served it with softserve and honey to make it extra delicious!
3. Sikhye. A traditional sweet Korean rice beverage. I love how simple and straightforward it is. The fact that it has fiber and good for digestion, it's a big yes for me.
4. Kimbap. It is a Korean sushi roll with a small piece of ham,egg,kani and some veges in it. They have standard size for this dish, which I find bigger than my prefer size for a sushi roll. The rice is not sticky and it has a light taste.
5. French Toast tasted good but this is not the way I want my french toast to be.
6. Pumpkin Soup. It's rich and tasty.
Overall, it was a great experience to finally be able to try their products. I have to admit the price is a bit expensive but it's all worth it because you're paying for quality. It's definitely worth a revisit!
Korea, you've done it again!
Kiss the Tiramisu is a dessert cafe that originated all the way from Korea. They're such a hit over there that they've branched out to other Asian countries like here in the Philippines. This branch in Salcedo Village is their first branch but they'll be opening a new store soon at Trinoma so.. heads up, people at the north!
One of the things KTT is proud of is that all the ingredients and materials they use, from the ice cream down to the spoon and cups that they provide, are all imported from Korea. So you can really taste and feel the authenticity when you pay them a visit.
I got to warm myself up with their Matcha Latte (Php 180.00 - Hot): which had a strong but likable green tea taste. It was sweet despite how overpowering the Matcha was. I honestly really liked it.
Caramel Cream Cheese Latte (Php 245.00: Iced): which I was really excited about because everything with cream cheese is sure to be good and indeed, I was not disappointed. It was sweet because of the caramel but the cream cheese gave it that sour twist.
I also got to taste their Gimbap (Php 270.00): which pieces are all a mouthful. Indeed the perfect snack if you want your meal to be as Korean as can be. However, I really preferred the Philly Roll (Php 270.00): because it came with cheese and I'm a sucker for that.
Now, for their ice cream! I'm telling you right now, this is worth your money. It's no ordinary ice cream that you can just taste and eat anywhere so if you have the budget and you want to treat yourself something nice, this is the one you should buy.
We had their Classic Tiramisu (Php 265.00): which instantly became my favorite. Each serving has mascarpone but because it was a must for tiramisu, it made it even perfect. The taste of their tiramisu is more on the sweet side rather than the liquor taste the way some Italians do it.
Their Injeolmi Tiramisu Cream (Php 265.00): is what you should order for all the Korea feels. Injeolmi is a well-known Korean dessert which comes with rice cake with powdered dried beans. If you're not the sweet-tooth type, this is what you should order.
Midas Touch (Php 295.00): the treat with some 24K magic in the air~ this is chef's take on KTT ice cream with a Filipino twist. The halo-halo style with some luxurious touch. Before this was put on the menu, they had to get approval all the way from Korea. Thankfully, they did. The gold leaf doesn't have a taste but doesn't it look so pretty? You're buying this for the ube anyway might as well be able to say you've digested some gold. This sweet treat also has some leche flan and wafers.
TIP: You can take home the goblet cups that contains your ice cream!
Matcha Tiramisu Cake (Php 300.00): which wasn't really a cake but more of a mousse. This matcha is more on the sweet side, therefore, more addicting. You can also take the container with you if you can't finish the whole thing. Do not be deceived by the size, you will be full after a few bites.
Oh, and they also have this Korean Dessert Drink called Sikhye (Php 180.00): which tasted like you're drinking sweet candy but it's just made up of rice and malt. I'm sure all the kids will love this.
I would really recommend this place to a lot of people and I'd even try them out when I go back to Korea because I've been told that the taste of their ice creams are no different from the original ones.
Damn! Who knew that matcha and tiramisu fusion together would create such a yummy dessert. It was the right amount of sweetness and the softness of the tiramisu was the best! Definitely a place worth checking out!

Kiss the Tiramisu originated in South Korea. It was founded by Jiro Kim. Kiss The Tiramisu is now in the Philippines with the help of Shirley Vy of Foodealogy Inc, the local franchisee of Kiss the Tiramisu. Thank you!
The location is easy to find. The place is small. The ambiance is cozy. The design/interiors were very classy and not girly (most dessert-parlors usually have that pink, chic and girly theme) and I like it because is not intimidating for men. Their unique chandeliers are interesting to see. First of all, the name got my attention, it gives me a hint that its a dessert-parlor. I love tiramisu.
We were assisted by Chef Kat. She's so nice and friendly. During the Foodie Meetup, they have served the following:
Matcha latte (P180.00 hot) - it was bittersweet. You get to enjoy it as the bitter flavor isn't that strong and it's a bit sweeter (I like it sweet). It was foamy on the top.
Caramel Cream Cheese Latte (P245.00 iced) - it's more bitter than their matcha latte. It's coffee based, drizzled with caramel sauce. It is thicker and foamy as well.
Let's head to their Ice Cream. Their Ice Cream is placed on a plastic, reusable golden goblet which you can bring home. They include the Mascarpone cheese on every ice cream to make it special and delightfully enjoyable.
Classic Tiramisu Ice Cream (P265.00) - it's sweet. I suggest to scrape it in the bottom so you can taste the mascarpone cheese. Classic is the best! One of my favorites.
Injolmi Tiramisu Ice Cream (P265.00) - it was nutty in taste. If you prefer ice cream that's not too sweet, this is for you. It has mascarpone cheese so I also suggest you scoop up to the bottom. One of my favorites.
Midas Touch (P295.00) - probably the highlight of my visit (aside from the Tiramisu). Decadent ice cream with a touch of Philippines. It has ube cake, leche flan, crushed barquillos, and caramel syrup that's oozing with creamy goodness. It's topped with an edible gold leaf. Experience all of it in one bite. One of my favorites.
Apple Mango Ade (P180.00) - the mango flavor is strong though it has an apple aftertaste
Green Grape Ade (P180.00) - tasted like soda. I like it than the Apple Mango Ade
Matcha Tiramisu Cake (P300.00) - not too bitter, the cheese was dominant in taste (and I like it), though if you slice on the part that has the most powder, it's too bitter. I suggest to eat it with the cheese part. It's one of my favorites as well.
We have also tried the new menu of Kiss The Tiramisu:
Sikhye (P180.00) - it tasted like sugarcane. It has mild flavor.
Matcha pancake (P200.00) - matcha taste is mild. The sweet syrup and ice cream can easily overpower this pancake. It is favorable if you prefer it sweeter.
Tiramisu pancake (P200.00) - I like it as it is. It has chocolate on its layers. I was able to enjoy it. Applying the syruo and ice cream on it will make the pancake sweeter.
Pumpkin soup (P150.00) - the consistency is thick. Pumpkin taste isn't that strong. Flavor is mild.
Kimbap (P270.00) - the rice is sticky, each piece is bigger the way it was served in Korea. It tasted plain though the Gochujang may add flavor. The Gochujang sauce is spicy
Philly Roll (P270.00) - It has a meatier taste, and has more flavors than the Kimbap. I like it. I also like the (brown) sauce that's underneath it.
French Toast (P195.00) - special Gardenia bread toast. It has that egg/buttery taste.
At first look, price range may seem expensive, but I think their ice cream is reasonably priced. The quality and taste is there. They'll have a new branch in Trinoma Mall soon so for the people in the North, make sure to check it.
Thank you for having us Kiss The Tiramisu. Thanks for the invitation ZomatoPH.
FMU: July 26, 2018 - 2:00 PM
I've passed by Kiss the Tiramisu a couple of times before but had the initial impression that it would be pricier than its worth. But after tasting the Classic Tiramisu Ice Cream yesterday, I know I'm coming back for sure.
For full disclosure, I was here for a Zomato Foodie meetup which was super fun because we had the chance to taste a wide variety of their menu. Chef Kat was super enthusiastic about the menu and the BTS stories. I looove seeing people so passionate about what they do.
Quick rundown of what we had :
1 Matcha Latte : served hot and perfect for the rainy weather. Semi-strong matcha taste is perfect for my liking.
2 Caramel Cream Cheese Latte : it was on the bitter side and I could barely taste the cream cheese. But you will really feel the espresso. I'm a caffeine lightweight so this could keep me up at night for sure.
3 Classic Tiramisu Ice Cream : to die for. Scoop all the way down so you get all elements in one bite.
4 Injeolmi Tiramisu Ice Cream : there were small kakanin pieces which I didn't like as I've never been a fan of kakanin.
5 Apple Mango Ade : definitely getting this again! Super refreshing with the carbonated water.
6 Green Grape Ade : not for me. I found it too overwhelming.
7 Matcha Cake : it tastes much better than it looks. Matcha was not very strong which makes this a great cake you can attempt to finish on your own.
8 Kimbap : regular kimbap but once you dip it in their tasty hot sauce, then that changes things.
9 Philly Roll : this is a favorite! I am ordering this again next time I come back for sure.
10 Sikhye : korean rice dessert, but the taste reminds me of sugarcane.
11 Matcha Pancake : comes with a side of ice cream. It was okay but nothing special.
12 Tiramisu Pancake : comes with a side of ice cream. I liked this more than the Matcha Pancake because this was sweeter.
13 Pumpkin Soup : this was super thick and not exactly how I like my soup.
14 French Toast : surprisingly good. I love the perfect balance of sweet and salty.
P.S. Yes you can take home the goblet (it's plastic. I had the impression from photos that it could be part glass and metal), and the clear plastic cake case.
This place is indeed a specialty ice cream store where they only serve a few ice cream variants. They also serve coffee and cakes but I personally haven't tried any of that yet. I have tried two of their ice cream which are the "Classic Tiramisu" and "Midas Touch".
On the Classic Tiramisu (Taste 4/5):
They serve the soft serve ice cream on a partially clear and golden chalice where they top it with chocolate powder and shavings. Within the ice cream bulk is a a surprise of tiramisu crumbs that compliments the softness and taste of the ice cream. The ice cream itself is not to be taken lightly as it was incredibly creamy with the right level of sweetness. The addition of the chocolate and bittersweet taste of tiramisu crumbs further heightens the whole product.
On the Midas Touch (Taste 5/5):
This is the same soft serve ice cream with gold on top, however, on the inside is a mix of some type of ube paste and cheese. The excitement of tasting gold for the first time goes after a few bites but after that you truly begin to acknowledge that the combination of the ice cream, ube, and cheese is what makes this product shine! (no offense on gold lovers). Personally, the best soft serve ice cream I've tasted (I'm not really fond of sweet things
On other matters:
Ambiance - Lighting and seating was relaxing and shows elegance which is proper for their products
Utensils - This might be the only thing I did not like. The chalice were flimsy and plastic which I don't think was the best for the ice cream. If possible a metal (with shine gold paint) + glass chalice might be a better alternative.
Finally, I'd really love to come back again for that Midas touch ;)
I like the classic tiramisu ice cream. It's rich and flavorful, you can really taste the mascarpone cheese. I also like its presentation, but it would've been better if the cup is made of glass instead of plastic. The place is nice but a bit small. Their desserts are a bit pricey but worth trying at least once.
I gotta say the classic tiramisu ice cream was delish. It wasn't overly sweet, which I liked. Staff was very accommodating. The place is small but comfortable. I just can't get past the P265 for a small serving of ice cream. The ice cream was good, but it's not AMAZING enough to warrant such a price point. Good to try at least once though.
Overall rating - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Ambiance, service and food was good. If you’re a sweet tooth and happen to be in makati, their classic tiramisu can satisfy your craving.
Classic tiramisu - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
We actually ate at the Century City Mall pop-up branch for the Market X event. The ice cream was really yummy and not too sweet. I got the Injeolmi one and it had these yummy sticky balls inside. You can take home the goblet as well, it's plastic. :) my boyfriend got the classic tiramisu and it was really good! :) will come back to the Salcedo branch. :)
We had a wonderful time yesterday at this place. The softie was great combined with a great presentation. Staff were nice. And you get to bring home their iconic goblet!
I read a lot of mixed reviews about this place. Some were good, some were so-so, and some was just disappointed beyond belief. Some even saying if it wasnt for that chalice of a container, it was merely a Vanilla Ice Cream with Coffee Powder sprinkled on top. I thought that was pretty harsh hence I decided to drop by during my break and see (or taste!) for myself.
I got the Classic Tiramisu Ice Cream, watching the server like a hawk while he assembles my ice cream. As it was served i scooped a teaspoonful of everything; scooping from below the cup, up until the top.
Magic. Fireworks. Nirvana. Bliss. Sinfully Heavenly
It was amazing!
The mascarpone, vanilla ice cream, milk and coffee just exploded inside my mouth, bursting with flavors! I kid you not, my friend practically hopped around saying OH MY GOD over over again right after tasting. It was THAT good.
Just so you have an idea just how good it was, i wasnt even able to take a picture before or while eating it. Lol.
other than the chi chi container+spoon and the gasping price to pay for this soft serve, i’d say i was pleased and impressed with the serving, the decór, the service and the way it made me feel and left me satisfied was just lovely. i’ve been searching for this place (by foot) whenever i’m in the valero area and because of my keen gift of misdirection, i always ended up in the wrong street. when i had ample time to while away on foot and the determination to have a bite of this curiosity, alas i found my way to it. as expected, it being a Sunday, it was just me and lady sipping her coffee. so i giddly went to the counter and ordered their classic tiramisu soft serve with cookie crumbs, chocolate dust and im pretty sure there was a swirl or rich cream cheese fluff in the center. though it’s a lil sweet and densely creamy- thank goodness for water, that wasnt my issue. it was the flute. all the while i thought it was made of glass as it was chilled in the ref but when i grabbed hold of it, i was disappointed. wouldve been better if it was real glass to add more drama and effect to the presentation. also wished dad was there to avail of the senior discount because the price tag was enough to pay for a stuffed meal. in conclusion, it was good and best to experience.
The Original Tiramisu is just yummy. Right touch of coffee and cheese. Coffee is strong and well pressed too. The ambience pretty much looks like a small hotel lounge.
We were satisfied with Midas touch which has a touch of edible gold leaf, ube cake, leche flan, crushed barquillos, caramel sauce, and lastly vanilla soft served ice cream. The ice cream has a unique creamy milky flavor not like any ice cream I've ever tasted! But as for the price it is a bit expensive P295. But it is a place where I would definitely go back to!
Kiss The Tiramisu is an international franchise from South Korea. With less than 1 year operation here in the Philippines, I might say it is one of the best Korean ice cream I had, the only issue is that if they can lessen the price of their products. But honestly, the ice creams were good.
By the way, here are the list of ice cream I’ve tried when we visited the ice cream shop:
🍦Classic Tiramisu Ice Cream for Php265.00
🍦Matcha Tiramisu Ice Cream for Php285.00
🍦Injeolmi Tiramisu Ice Cream for Php265.00
🍦Midas Touch for Php295.00
Actually, Midas Touch sounds interesting because it has edible 24K gold in the ice cream but my favorite was the Injeolmi Tiramisu. I find the ice cream has a balance tste of sweetness compare to the other flavor.
#ilovetoeatph 😃❤️
I ordered one of their best sellers the Midas Touch which costs PHP 295. It really looks fancy since it is topped with edible gold leaf. Midas Touch has vanilla and ube ice cream sundae and chuncks of ube cheesecake. I really had fun finishing my order! The ube is legit! And cheesecake is really really really good!
This cafe is awesome and I’m excited to bring my family and friends here!
After Mendokoro Ramenba, we decided to talk a stroll in the streets of Makati in search for GOLD. 😊
Kiss the Tiramisu can be found fee blocks away from Mendokoro.
We ordered the famous - Midas Touch and it was definitely a touch made in heaven. 💕
Soft served ice cream with Ube cake and leche flan in the middle and yep, you saw it right - AN EDIBLE REAL 24K GOLD. Very generous touch of gold.
The ice cream's smooth, I love the ube and leche flan, very tasty.
In my first visit, I was stricken by the interior. I felt like a royalty with the gold embellishments and the interior’s lighting. Upon seeing the menu, I immediately tried the Matcha Tiramisu Ice Cream and added Caramel Cheese Cream Latte. When it arrived, it didn’t disappoint. The matcha and their soft-serve goes well together and is not that sweet. It didn’t melt easily unlike other soft-serves and I certainly finished the whole thing.

We enjoyed the place all to ourselves on a Saturday afternoon. The place was clean and really nice to have pictures taken. We ordered the classic tiramisu and midas touch tiramusa which has a gold leaf served plus black coffee. Coffee was okay. The tiramisu(s) were really good. And you can take home with you the goblet where they served the tiramisu you ordered. You can bring it in your next visit to have it served there though it's not something that you can easily pack in your bag or carry around.
What could be better than ending a long day with some sweet dessert? I know for certain that sweets can elevate a stressful mood. Working in Makati area? Try Kiss The Tiramisu after work. Kiss The Tiramisu is very conveniently located in Valero, Makati where most of the office hubs are located. They offer parfaits and cakes plus coffee too and of course tiramisu.
My friend told me there’s a new dessert place called Kiss The Tiramisu, after I checkout it out the place from outside and read the reviews. Wow this is a cafe from Korea, I have to try it out. So I ordered the Tiramisu cheese latte and Matcha tiramisu ice cream like everyone recommended and oh my gosh, both are sooo good. The cafe is so quiet so I’m thinking to study here next time and I definitely come back.
Kiss the Tiramisu is a chic cosmopolitan ice cream place at Three Central, Salcedo Village, Makati, literally a stone's throw away from my office building. For me, it is reminiscent of a jewelry shop or a posh shoe store. I personally liked their lighting fixtures, huge goblets or wine glasses that seem to trickle down to a sparkling point. Very innovative!
We were able to taste both their coffee and ice cream offerings. The focus on the tiramisu was evident, from the strong coffee flavors to the layers of the different components in each beautifully created drink/dessert.
Coffee
Tiramisu Cream Cheese Latte P245
- Definitely a pick me upper. The cream cheese balances this strong cup. It's one of my favorites in this line-up.
Matcha Latte P190
- The matcha flavor is on point and not too sweet. Very authentic. I like the comforting light green matcha color too!
Tiramisu Affogato P235
- An ice cream you can drizzle with an espresso shot! Makes the coffee experience more interactive, and definitely Boomerang-worthy!
Tiramisu Ice Cream Latte P265
- This time, it's coffee topped with ice cream, making this cup extra flavorful and creamy. Beware of milk moustaches! Hehehe
Ice Cream
Each ice cream concoction comes in a gold-rimmed goblet. Although made of plastic, you can let the staff wash these pretty containers and take them home. Talk about souvenirs! This beats platic coffee shop tumblers! Hahahaha
Classic Tiramisu P265
- Their first flavor, the original Classi Tiramisu is he embodiment of the fusion of Italian tiramisu and Korean ice cream. The layers of mascarpone cheese, ice cream, cocoa powder, coffee wnd more cheese meld well to create this decadent dessert. The light Korean ice cream is perfect with the tiramisu underneath.
Matcha Tiramisu P285
- With the classic tiramisu ice cream as base, this comes with lots of green matcha powder on top. The matcha flavor is not too strong and again, the Korean ice cream was the perfect canvas if you love matcha and tiramisu.
Injeolmi Tiramisu P265
- This is my favorite of the ice cream line-up. I love the soy powder-infused chewy injeolmi bits in this cup. The injeolmi's texture is similar to a rice cake, and tastes nutty and soy at the same time. This nutty soy flavor mixes well with the ice cream and makes this cup the most interesting of the bunch.
Midas Touch P295
- Every Kiss the Tiramisu franchise allows one customized flavor relative to the franchiser's country. The owner, Ms. Shirley Vy, chose to highlight the Halo-halo and gave it a posh, more exquisite version. Layers of homegrown flavors like ube cake squares, leche flan bits, curtains of caramel sauce, and crushed barquillos topped with Korean ice cream and that shiny edible gold leaf. The gold leaf makes you feel like a high roller indeed!
Kiss the Tiramisu is such a refreshing posh alternative from your usual coffee and dessert joints in the area. I recommend this to guys who would love to impress their dates, to a group of corporate Titas who would love a sweet ending to a humdrum lunchbreak, or to couples ending their workday together. This makes for a perfect spot for a first date too! :)
Personally, I will go back to try more of their coffee and their boxed cakes. And yes, another perfect goblet of the amber-colored Injeolmi tiramisu ice cream!
I've known Kiss the tiramisu for quite a while in Korean food shows and the excitement I got knowing that they have a branch here was through the roof. I've seen famous koreans promote their product before and they are pretty well known in Korea. They are best known for their tiramisu Ice Cream, but they also serve coffee and cakes in their cafe. The place was quaint, minimalist and posh for the millenials to enjoy and relax. I got a chance to meet Shirley Vy, the owner who franchised the brand from Korea and she told me the story of how she decided to chance upon the brand and loved it. Since it's a brand from korea, The materials, cups and ingredients are imported from Korea, prime quality at its best. Shirley also told me that she plans to open branches in Boracay and the north.
Their coffee was the bomb.com although fair warning that Koreans like their coffee strong. Me and my foodie friends got to try their coffee first was the Tiramisu Cheese Cream Latte(P245), then Matcha Latte(P190), Tiramisu Affogato (P235) lastly the Tiramisu Ice Cream Latte (P265). Firstly their coffee beans are imported from Korea even their cups and holders too. The Tiramisu Cheese Cream Latte is one of their best and my favorite! The mascarpone cheese was evident in the latte for its saltiness and creaminess but it didn't dominate the coffee. The coffee had a chocolatey profile to it as well as a bit bitter and strong. Their Matcha Latte had a subtle matcha taste and wasn't too sweet which was sticking to the true legit matcha taste not those fake sweet things pinoys accustomed with. The Tiramisu Ice Cream Latte and Tiramisu Affogato are kinda the same concept but the opposite. The Tiramisu Ice Cream Latte had their signature ice cream on top of your cheese cream cafe latte while the Affogato beckons you to top your ice cream with an espresso shot. Both were great altho I love the affogato more for its flair and strong coffee cos of the espresso.
For their signature Ice Cream we had the ClassicTiramisu(P265), Matcha Tiramisu(P285), Injeolmi Tiramisu(P265) and the gold flaked Midas Touch(P295). Man were we in Tiramisu ice cream heaven that time. The original tiramisu had mascarpone cheese, ice cream, cocoa powder, coffee and cheese syrups. True to its brand and taste it was a delicious Korean tiramisu in Ice cream form. The soft serve didn't melt easily and was consistent all through out. The Injeolmi Tiramisu was another experience as injeolmi in korea is tteok(rice cake) powdered in sweet beans. It gave the Ice cream a chewy delicious texture that sets it apart from the others. The Matcha Tiramisu was a matcha lover's dream, mountains of matcha powder all over your ice cream combined with their signature soft serve. A two flavor that will get your tastebuds rattled by its deliciousness. Lastly was the Midas touch, which were informed to us that it's a Philippine exclusive that had local premium ingredients of barquiilos, leche flan, ube jam(similar to good shepherd ube jam yo) and ube sauce all topped with 24k edible gold leaf. The edible gold leaf add on was cheap as I know another restaurant that sells a dessert which was way more expensive. Although it doesnt add taste to the ice cream, it's exquisite in presentation, it adds a bit of texture and as a pinoy you can never go wrong with ube, leche flan and barquillos.
The whole experience was just an eye opener to me and will definitely go back. Although it is a bit of the expensive side premium ingredients and materials were used and also you can keep/take home their Ice cream goblets! How cool is that?
P.s. will go back here more for the posh goblets HAHAHA
Favorites: Tiramisu ICe Cream, Injeolmi Ice cream, Midas Touch, Tiramisu Cheese Cream Latte.
Food 5/5 - You get what you pay for top quality premium ingredients from Korea
Price 4/5- Price wise is a little expensive but I see myself going back here as a reward cos its super worth it
Ambiance 5/5- The TV was a nice touch the minimalist theme and the sea green colors with big windows was good as well
Service 5/5- Service was excellent all through out no qualms with their staff. they were even nice enough to clean our goblets to take home.

My friend really want to go here just to try their ice cream. So here we go, we tried their classic tiramisu ice cream for 265 pesos ✨ I know it is expensive for an ice cream but it taste good. You must try!! And i will definitely go back here to try their other flavors, cakes and coffee ❤️
Tried their Kiss The Tiramisu Ice Cream, Midas Touch and their Christmas Special Strawberry Santa Ice Cream. I'm not really a fan of ice cream, but I can say their Ice cream is really delicious, maybe because its not to sweet, especially their Tiramisu, where you can taste the bitter sweet coffee, then their Midas Touch, with a bit of ube and pudding inside giving it a perfect match.
The place and ambience is nice and clean. Will go back here again. One of my favorite dessert resto.

Kiss the Tiramisu is a global franchise from South Korea. It serves coffee, cakes, and of course, their signature tiramisu ice cream. This cafe from Seoul is truly a hit among millennials and now has branches all over Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Hong Kong, and now, here in the Philippines.
Shirley Vy, owner of Kiss the Tiramisu, said they're planning to have more branches in the Metro soon. They're also eyeing Boracay, as surely, the island's heat and vibe is perfect for having ice cream. Ice cream by the beach, yes?
Before I review their ice cream, let me first tell you guys how I love their drinks. Seriously, their espresso-based drinks are good AF.
I had their Tiramisu Cheese Cream Latte and it's currently my favorite. The cheese cream was so flavorful but it did not overpower the coffee. It's sweet and salty at the same time, but I tell you, it's more delish than cocoa rocksalt and cheese by a more popular brand.
I also had their Matcha Latte, which is a combination of coffee, milk, and matcha syrup. It's not too sweet, which I really like. It's something I would have everyday. The matcha taste was not too strong, but it's truly perfect for the coffee and milk combo.
The Tiramisu Ice Cream Latte is for people who love coffee and ice cream at the same time. It's more like a coffee float for me. It's packed with bold flavors of coffee and tiramisu ice cream. I super love it but it's just too sinful for me.
Now let's go to their ice cream, yes?
Let me start with their Original Tiramisu. It has mascarpone cheese, ice cream, cocoa powder, and coffee and cheese syrups. Think of tiramisu cake transformed to ice cream. It was delicious! I loved the consistency of the soft serve.
Matcha Tiramisu. Raise your hand if you're a matcha lover. 🙋🏻♂️🙋🏻♂️🙋🏻♂️ Being also a matcha fanatic, I like how generous the matcha powder in this order. I wish for a stronger matcha taste however. But I think if you're not a hardcore matcha addict, you'll get to enjoy this treat.
Injeolmi Tiramisu Ice Cream. Surprisingly, this flavor became my favorite during this visit. I loved how the soy bean powder gave a nice kick in this one. It also has injeolmi rice cake which of course, gave this ice cream a different texture.
And lastly, exclusive to the Philippines only, I also enjoyed Midas Touch. It's made with all-time Filipino favorites such as barquillos, leche flan, ube jam, and ube sauce. It is then topped with 24K edible gold leaf. I love how royal this dessert is! You can never go wrong with ube + leche flan combination.
Some say that 265php is too much for ice cream, but I say it's more than that. They use premium ingredients and provide authentic Korean experience by letting the diners take home their ice cream goblets! Yes, you can bring those cute glasses home. Thank me later!
Overall, I enjoyed my first Kiss the Tiramisu experience. I'll definitely go back and have more of their drinks and my favorite Injeolmi Tiramisu ice cream! 🤗

Kiss the Tiramisu is a global franchise dessert shop from South Korea where they have been all over Asia and now here in the Philippines. We all know that Bingsu is Korean's famous dessert so this is quite unlikely that they offer a different approach in this field. So what is it like mixing Korean and Italian in a dessert? Korean's love for coffee perhaps brought about the idea of creating the famous Italian coffee dessert, Tiramisu, into a soft served ice cream while blending flavors to have a unique approach but then it is for you to find out.
Their store is easily situated at the corner spot of the building and they have a nice modern industrial design however, they can only occupy a few customers probably around 15-20 which is just okay since people are fast paced and are quite busy in the area so I noticed some would drop by and eat dessert for just a while. And by the way, aside from the soft served ice cream, they also serve Espresso which is another alternative if you wanted to have a different option from the usual coffee shops perfect for the office employees around the area.
We first tried the Hot and Iced Espresso Beverages before we head on to the main attraction. They served us the Vanilla Latte, Cheese Cream Latte, Matcha Latte, and Tiramisu Affogato. We had the vanilla latte hot and the rest were iced. The Vanilla Latte's strong coffee was blended pretty well by the steamed milk. Koreans definitely love rich flavored coffee so you'd notice they chose a highly strong coffee beans in their espresso beverages. The Cheese Cream Latte is our favorite. I liked the cheesy creamy and milky flavor of this drink. It is slightly sweet and salty but it's just right. Matcha Latte is also a good one. You have to mix the Matcha base to the latte so it will blend evenly. I liked that light bitter sweet taste in every sip. The Tiramisu Affogato is one lovely treat. Although it is a dessert, you have to pour in a shot of espresso into the cup of tiramisu ice cream. One common thing for sure is the strong coffee flavor but not too indulgent because of the well balanced ingredients they blend in.
And so here we are going to try their Soft Served Ice Creams. Since they only have 4 flavor, why not try everything right? We had their Classic Tiramisu, Matcha Tiramisu, Injeolmi Tiramisu, and the Midas Touch. Imagine having your Tiramisu turned into ice cream except that no alcohol were poured in. They have different toppings for each flavors but the basics like mascarpone cheese, cocoa powders, shreddings and syrups. They pour the ice cream halfway and put toppings in between and then fill the entire cup and lavished with more toppings. The velvety texture of the ice cream and the taste really made it special. Midas Touch is their Filipino inspired flavor only available here. The middle had custard, barquillos and Ube something similar to our very own Halo Halo and on top is a 24k gold leaf - imagine that? A luxurious dessert in a goblet. Yes I almost forgot, for the ice cream, they serve it in a golden goblet which can be taken home. It's not glass but it looked pretty cool. The Midas Touch is my favorite ice cream because it resemble our very own plus it is affordable considering the gold leaf on top.
So that's it. It was refreshing and we all enjoyed the treat. If ever I pass by the area, I will definitely come and get some more of those ice cream. Kudos!
A pretty young lady tells of a story about her first kiss in Korea. It was on her tour on the country when she found this seemingly dessert place being lined up with people. At first she thought why would people line up for an ice cream, but she gave in and there she had her first kiss, a kiss she couldn't forget, that very first try and fell in love with.
Kiss the Tiramisu is a dessert cafe from South Korea opened their first outlet in Philippines 2 months ago, that offers Tiramisu soft serve, coffee, and cake. This soft serve ice cream became insanely popular in HK, Malaysia, SG, Thailand, Canada and now Philippines.
Kiss the Tiramisu Manila can accommodate 15 to 20 customers, they have very comfortable chairs and glasses they used to design the place (pretty good idea huh)
We had Classic Tiramisu Ice Cream @Php265 which is the best seller and Midas Touch @Php295 which had the edible gold leaf on top.
The Classic Tiramisu is just nice but the Midas Touch is too sweet.
Ambience is good, food is better, serving time is a bit slow since only 1 personnel arranges the food. Also accessibility might be a problem. Hoping for more branches which can be accessed easily (makati traffic is hell). 👌
Kiss the Tiramisu cones all the way from Seoul after having taken South East Asia by a Tiramisu storm!
Tried both the classic Tiramisu and the Matcha Tiramisu ice cream. Both were good. Coffee was good too.
Finally it opened here at Philippines Makati Branch as well! They only accept cash. And only have 3 flavor unlike Korea. But still good 😁 enjoyed
