Buko pie is a two-crust pie filled with sliced buko in custard. This pie originated from Los Baños, Laguna. But if you can't visit Laguna or don't have a Colette's Buko Pie at Pasalubong nearby, the closest you can get is Jollibee's newest pie variant.
According to Jollibee, their Buko Pie is made from "real buko chunks and sweet-creamy filling." The pie was released yesterday (October 15th) and I was able to try it that same day. I can say that it does have real buko chunks but the creamy filling isn't too sweet. It is best eaten right away.
After trying Jollibee's Buko Pie, I suddenly have the urge to visit Colette's Buko Pie at Pasalubong. There is a branch near us but their iconic buko pie designed for sharing. I guess I can buy this when I have friends or relatives over. For now, I am settling with Jollibee's newest pie variant which they sell for P30 each and P89 for a set of three.
Jollibee's Buko Pie is now available Metro Manila and Luzon branches and will be offered in the Visayas and Mindanao starting October 28.
Happy eating!
