Baked fresh daily for every Filipino: 25 years of world-class bread and delightful moments with Gardenia

The Freeman

CEBU, Philippines — From pioneering an unfamiliar concept of branded “tasty” bread in the '90s, Gardenia’s commitment to serving world-class packaged bread has come a long way. It found a recipe for success and has become not only a staple in many households but a symbol of comfort and familiarity for many Filipinos.

In its 25 years of serving delightful moments every day, Gardenia has won the hearts of generations of Filipinos and continues to do so to this day.

Game-changing level of baking

For Gardenia, this delicious history all starts with two key components: bakery plants that utilize the most modern baking technology from the United States and Europe and the finest ingredients sourced from some of the best suppliers in the global market.

By bringing these elements together, Gardenia is able to change the game for the local baking industry and consistently produce world-class quality bread for Filipino families—no matter where they are in the country.

The company persists to bring its baking expertise and best-quality products closer to every consumer. That is why aside from its first bakery plant in Laguna which became fully operational in 1998, Gardenia expanded its operations to the VisMin region. 

In 2011, Gardenia inaugurated a fully automated plant in Lapu-Lapu City in Cebu which was followed by establishing another state-of-the-art manufacturing facility in 2019, one that is located in Cagayan de Oro. Thousands of Gardenia loaf breads are baked fresh everyday in these plants and delivered daily to supermarkets and other retailers in Visayas and Mindanao.

This is the Gardenia guarantee—fresh packaged breads on the store shelves anytime and anywhere.

'Masarap kahit walang palaman'

Gardenia has been part of the fond memories of many Filipinos.

The aroma, softness and taste of Gardenia remind them of home and childhood, where everyone in the family shares happy moments over a loaf of freshly baked and nutritious Gardenia Classic White Bread. 

It has become the go-to option for bread, perfect for any occasion—big or small—versatile and enjoyable in several ways.

Whether for breakfast, lunch, snack or dinner, some meals will never be complete without this great-tasting bread. As many of us fondly know, Gardenia always lives up to its tagline, “Masarap kahit walang palaman!” 

Delicious in many ways

Over the years, Gardenia has also expanded its product assortment, ensuring to adjust to the changing demands, tastes and lifestyles of its consumers.

For health-conscious Filipinos or those on a doctor-recommended diet, Gardenia offers a selection of high-fiber bread such as the High Fiber Whole Wheat Bread, High Fiber Wheat Raisin Loaf and High Fiber Wheat Cranberry Loaf that don’t compromise the nutritional benefits of whole wheat. 

Those who are fond of sweets would surely love the irresistible Gardenia Amazing Black Forest Loaf and Amazing Butterscotch Loaf as well as the Double Delights Flavored Loaves where you can enjoy twice the flavors in one loaf. You can choose from Ube & Cheese Loaf and Strawberry & Blueberry Loaf. These flavored loaves are not just heavenly good but also contain nutrients that are good for the body

If you love pandesal, a forever favorite among Filipinos, Gardenia has it—available in different formats. 

Craving for cheese buns? Gardenia has a milky and cheesy offering that will satisfy the taste buds in every bite. For busy people in need of a quick recharge, Gardenia has designed products that are perfect for delightful snacking on-the-go.
