Cloud 9 Crunchies: A Nine-Layered Loaded Bite That Stretches Your Enjoyment

March 20, 2026

Make those quick me-time pauses more enjoyable with the satisfying crunch and chocolate goodness of Cloud 9 Crunchies



We all have those in-between moments. The few minutes before your next meeting starts, a quick pause after lunch, or that quiet break while waiting for your ride home. It’s not exactly “rest,” but it’s enough to breathe, scroll a bit, and enjoy something small—your own little me time. Those little pauses matter, so stretch those moments by enjoying a delicious treat like Cloud 9 Crunchies.


A familiar favorite, reimagined
Cloud 9 has always been known for its signature chocolate bars made with layers of nuts, nougat, and caramel, all coated in chocolate. It’s a chocolate that’s instantly recognizable and deeply familiar for Filipinos.
This time, the well-loved chocolate brand introduces Cloud 9 Crunchies, an entirely new format that's all about fun textures and satisfying crunch. Instead of nuts and nougat, this bar has nine loaded layers of caramel, crispies, wafer sheets, and chocolate cream filling, wrapped in smooth milk chocolate.
From the first bite, it feels different—in a good way. Lighter, crunchier, and packed with chocolate goodness, Cloud 9 Crunchies can turn snacking into something you actually look forward to.

The wafers deliver that light, crisp crunch, the crispies add texture, the chocolate cream filling brings richness, and the caramel adds just the right touch of sweetness. Together, they create a fully loaded choco-crunchie bite with no filler and no empty moments—just layer after layer of enjoyment.


A delicious, loaded bite: Jack ‘n Jill Cloud 9 Crunchies has nine loaded layers of caramel, crispies, wafer sheets, and chocolate cream filling, wrapped in smooth milk chocolate



An affordable treat, a surprisingly big reward
At ₱8.45 SRP, Cloud 9 Crunchies feels like a cheerful little win. It’s affordable, easy to grab, and far more satisfying than you’d expect at that price point. With its nine-loaded layers, it stretches your snack break just a little longer, making those few minutes feel extra enjoyable.
Cloud 9 Crunchies takes a familiar favorite and makes it even more exciting. Crunchy, fun to eat, and seriously satisfying—this is snacking, leveled up!

Sometimes, the best moments are the small ones—and they’re even better when they come with nine delicious layers.




Jack ‘n Jill Cloud 9 Crunchies is a product of Universal Robina Corporation (URC), a Filipino food and beverage company, and maker of several iconic and well-loved brands such as Great Taste Coffee, C2 Cool and Clean, Jack ‘n Jill Piattos, Maxx Candy and Cream-O.

Get Your 2026 Craving Non-Negotiables At SM Supermalls in the Metro

February 10, 2026



For the new year, let’s raise the standards.

This is the year you stop making compromises when it comes to your cravings. No rushed decisions. No “this is good enough.” And more importantly, no more meals that feel like an afterthought.

SM Supermalls is starting the year by bringing in new dining spots that can transport you to a new era full of fresher concepts, bolder flavors, and better choices. Proving time and time again why it deserves to be your most beloved mall with spots that raise expectations, break routines, and make eating out feel fun again.

So before your calendar fills up with plan after plan, consider this your ultimate craving promise: to never negotiate when it comes to where and how you eat. Because if there’s one thing we’re not bringing into the year, it’s settling.


NON-NEGOTIABLE 1: Snacks Shouldn't Feel Like A Placeholder
Snacking isn’t something you do just to get by–it’s something you do because you actually want to eat. This year, snacks have to show up with flavor, personality, and zero shortcuts. Whether it’s something cheesy, crispy, or straight-up addictive, quick bites should still feel worth the stop.




● Pizza Planet
Prepare to blast off into a galaxy of flavors at Pizza Planet, located at the Annex, Upper Ground Level of SM North EDSA. When the craving hits, cheesy and gooey is the only right answer–and this fun, playful spot delivers every time. It’s your sure fix for comfort food done right, serving an out-of-this-world experience for kids, kids at heart, and anyone who takes their pizza seriously.


● Shihlin Taiwan Street Snacks
From Taiwan’s streets straight to your plate–Shihlin Taiwan Street Snacks at the Foodcourt, SM City Fairview serves crispy, juicy hits you won’t want to miss. XXL Chicken, Handmade Oyster Mee Sua, and all the bold flavors.


NON-NEGOTIABLE 2: All-in Should Mean Actually Going ALL In
All-you-can-eat only works when it actually delivers. No half-hearted spreads. No playing it safe. This year, if you’re committing to unlimited, it has to feel generous, intentional, and satisfying from the first plate to the last.


● King’s Feast Luxury Buffet by Buffet 101
Feast like royalty at King’s Feast Luxury Buffet by Buffet 101, soon to open at the 5th Level of The Block at SM North EDSA. This luxurious all-you-can-eat experience features mouthwatering local and international flavors that never skimp on quality or taste, promising a truly decadent dining adventure fit for kings and queens.


● Mo-Mo Paradise
Say “more, more!” to good food at Mo-Mo Paradise–the first in PH at the Level 3, Mega Fashion Hall of SM Megamall. When the plan is unlimited hot pot, this is the place you go straight to. Slow-simmered shabu-shabu and sukiyaki set the standard for sharing, slurping, and lingering over a proper meal.




NON-NEGOTIABLE 3: Bold Flavors Are Not Optional
This is the year we stop dialing it down. Big flavors, strong profiles, and dishes that don’t hold back—because great meals should leave an impression. If you’re craving something with heat, depth, or attitude, subtle isn’t part of the plan.


● Siklab+
For local flavors with a twist you won’t want to miss, head on over to Siklab+ at the ground level of S Maison. This is the kind of place that resets your expectations, where Paboritong Pork Sisig, Kuhol ni Tanggol, and Kalamay sa Latik become the benchmark you compare everything else to.


● Thaiwadee
When the craving is Thai, you don’t experiment... you go straight to Thaiwadee, soon opening at the Foodcourt of SM Southmall. Their Pad Thai and Tom Yum Goong stay true to that mix of heat, tang, depth, and all that you’re looking for when you’re not in the mood to compromise.


● Royal Indian Curry House Bistro
Satisfy your curry cravings at Royal Indian Curry House Bistro soon to open on the 5th Level of The Block at SM North EDSA. When you’re in the mood for Indian food, bold flavor and real spice aren’t optional—and this is where you go for it. From their rich Murgh Makhani to their fragrant Hyderabadi Biryani, every dish hits exactly the way it should.


NON-NEGOTIABLE 4: Eating Healthy Should Never Be Boring
Healthy doesn’t mean boring, and it definitely shouldn’t feel like a compromise. With the first Salady in PH at the Level 5 of the Fashion Hall in SM Megamall, choosing lighter meals no longer feels like you’re missing out.


NON-NEGOTIABLE 5: Coffee Stops Should Actually Feel Like A Pause Worth Taking
Coffee isn’t just about the drink, it’s about slowing down, sitting longer than planned, and pairing it with something you’ll still think about later. Cafe Kulture brings that energy to the Level 3, South MOA Sky of SM Mall of Asia, turning coffee and pastries into a moment, not just a routine.

The standards are set, so let your cravings do the rest.

You don’t need a plan for this part, you’ll know when you’re hungry. And when your craving finally calls, your favorite SM Supermalls has already answered with more new spaces, new names, and better food options than ever.

No overthinking, no settling. Just choosing what feels right in the moment, and knowing there’s always something new waiting the next time you come back.

BEST NEW FIRSTS IN METRO MANILA: Flavors You’ll Come Back For

December 12, 2025



Great meals don’t just fill you up—they keep you coming back for more.

This season, SM Supermalls invites you to discover a bold new era full of evolving finds with a delicious lineup of food destinations made to spark cravings and create lasting favorites. From Japan’s rich culinary traditions to the artistry of coffee and chocolate, each first is thoughtfully made to raise the bar for flavor and bring fresh dining experiences to every table.

And as we continue to serve these dishes out hot, one thing remains constant: at SM Supermalls, we’re always growing and evolving with you to truly show that we’ve got it all for you.

A Journey Through Japan
Nothing compares to the depth and comfort of authentic Japanese flavors. These handpicked spots serve everything from rich, hearty ramen to delicate, traditional sweets—each one made to bring a true taste of Japan to the Metro.


● Ramen Nagi - Craving comfort in a bowl? Ramen Nagi at the Ground Level, South Wing of SM Mall of Asia serves up rich, soul-warming ramen that’s as bold as it is satisfying. From creamy tonkotsu broth to perfectly chewy noodles and your choice of toppings, every bowl is made to hit just the right spot. Whether you’re a spice chaser or a flavor purist, this is your go-to for ramen that delivers on every slurp.


● Warabimochi - Soft, silky, and oh-so-satisfying—Warabimochi is now here at the Lower Ground Level of SM Aura to give dessert a whole new texture. This Japanese favorite melts in your mouth with every bite, whether dusted in nutty kinako or topped with a luscious syrup. Light enough for an afternoon treat yet special enough to end a meal, it’s the kind of sweetness you’ll want to linger over.


Poured to Perfection
From the roast to the steep, every step is done with care. These coffee and tea destinations serve up expertly crafted cups that balance flavor, aroma, and artistry—perfect for slow mornings, midday pick-me-ups, and everything in between.


● CHAGEE – Cool, creamy, and brewed just right—CHAGEE makes its Philippine debut by bringing a new kind of tea experience to SM City North EDSA at the 2nd Level, City Center. Every cup is steeped to perfection for flavor that hits just right. Whether you're in need for a little escape or chilling with friends, it’s tea time with a little extra kick of fun.


● Kenangan Coffee - Bold flavors, smooth pours, and the best Indonesian vibe—Kenangan Coffee is now brewing at SM Megamall. Known for its signature lattes and creative blends, every cup is made to keep your coffee moments anything but ordinary. Whether you’re grabbing a quick pick-me-up or savoring it slowly, this is coffee that will stay with you long after the last drop.


● H Proper Coffee Roasters - Turn your coffee runs into something worth looking forward to at SM Podium. H Proper Coffee Roasters is here to brew up rich aromas with just-right caffeine kick that can turn your ordinary day into a great one.


The Art of Indulgence
Some chocolates are so good they become an experience all on their own—and that’s exactly what you get with Läderach. Switzerland’s world-famous chocolatier has finally arrived at SM Mall of Asia, marking its first store in the Philippines. Known for its silky pralines, crisp nut-studded slabs, and decadent truffles, each bite strikes the perfect balance of rich and refined. Whether you’re into bold, dark notes or creamy, melt-in-your-mouth goodness, this is Swiss chocolate done right. One visit and you’ll know—this is the gold standard of indulgence.


Brunch O’Clock
Who says brunch is only for weekends? With the first Brunch Bureau in SM now open at the 2nd Level of S Maison, we’ve made it easier to turn any time of day into an excuse for pancakes at 3 PM. From perfectly brewed coffee to savory plates that hit just the right spot, it’s your moment to slow down and enjoy a little extra me-time. No rush, no rules—just brunch done your way.



How far will your cravings take you? From rich, savory staples to next-level sweets, Metro Manila’s newest dining spots are here to tempt, surprise, and satisfy. These aren’t just meals—they’re flavor moments you’ll want to come back to. All thoughtfully picked to turn your everyday cravings into something worth obsessing over here in this #NewEraOfSMSupermalls.
