Calamansi

The bright, zesty kick of real Philippine calamansi — anytime, anywhere.    Sourced from sun-kissed local farms in Mindoro, Philippines, this 100% calamansi concentrate powder delivers that signature sweet-tart flavor loved across the islands. 

You’ll need:

For the crust:

  • 1 cup graham cracker crumbs
  • 3 tbsp melted butter
  • 1 tbsp sugar

For the filling: 

  • 2-3 tsp Masarap Calamansi Citrus Concentrate Juice
  • 2 cups cream cheese, softened
  • ½ cup sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • ½ cup cream or sour cream
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

How to make it:

  1. Preheat oven to 160°C (320°F).
  2. Make the crust: Combine graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and sugar. Press firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan. Chill while preparing filling. 
  3. Make the filling: Beat cream cheese and sugar until smooth. Add eggs one at a time, then cream and vanilla. Stir in the Masarap Calamansi Concentrate until fully incorporated. 

  4. Bake: Pour filling over crust and bake 35–40 minutes, or until the center is just set. 
  5. Cool and chill: Let the cheesecake cool completely, then refrigerate at least 4 hours (preferably overnight) before serving.
