The classic and widely loved breakfast staple that is bacon has been completely reimagined in an original and delicious range of bacon treats. Get ready to elevate snack and meal times as Baken prepares to launch its introductory range of products in the Philippines and across the Asia Pacific.

BAKEN is a premium, all-bacon snack and confectionery line born from our founders’ self-professed obsession with bacon. Growing up in the Philippines, friends and entrepreneurs Rachel Carrasco and Kelly Parreño, were raised to love pork-alicious meals — eating crispy, crunchy bacon all the time. It is unsurprising that their porcine obsessions have followed them into adulthood; and building this bacon snack company has become both a dream job and a serious life mission.

After three years getting greasy in the kitchen, the pair have come up with three deliciously quirky products: Real Bacon Crisps, Bacon Cookies and Bacon Jam. All of them make the grade for cozy nights in with loved ones, as a reward after a hard day’s work, or really any time those cravings hit!

Smoky and salty with a crispiness that pushes the very limits of self-control, the Real Bacon Crisps are the OG product Carrasco and Parreño first envisioned on their quest for snack supremacy. These are not bacon-flavoured chips, but ready-to-eat, real bacon strips that promise a burst of flavour and satisfying crunch. While you’ll probably want to heartily consume them as is, they can also be enjoyed as a topping over dishes, in sandwiches and salads, and even desserts.

So unstoppable was the duo’s bacon-loving creativity that it spilled over into two more fun and unique spin-offs. The Bacon Cookies combine moreish bacon bits with the sweetness of chocolate chips, and are baked together into soft and chewy cookies. Finally, there is Bacon Jam, a sweet and savoury creation overloaded with bacon bits and with a kick of zest that will surely enliven any condiment cabinet. Like the Real Bacon Crisps, all of these use 100% real bacon and no artificial substitutes.
