DAVAO CITY — A beloved Davao dessert institution is turning the page. Sugar Munch Desserts will close its GMall of Davao branch on July 31, 2026, after 13 years of serving cakes, mousse, and sweet memories at the iconic mall. The closure marks the end of an era but also the start of a new chapter with an experience store planned for Obrero, Davao City. Meanwhile, the brand continues to delight customers at GMall of Digos and across its 10 other locations in the region.
A Fond Farewell to GMall of Davao
For over a decade, the GMall of Davao branch was more than a cake shop; it was the flagship that introduced thousands to the joy of mini cakes and decadent celebration desserts. Generations of Davaoeños celebrated birthdays, anniversaries, and graduations with treats from that familiar store. The decision to close was not easy, but the brand views it as a strategic move to evolve and better serve its growing fanbase.
Sugar Munch's management expressed deep gratitude to loyal customers who made the GMall branch a home. The closing paves the way for a new, more immersive experience store in Obrero, promising an elevated dessert destination with an expanded menu and modern ambiance. The transition reflects a brand that is not retreating but transforming.
A New Sweet Spot in Obrero
The upcoming Obrero store represents Sugar Munch's vision for the future. Designed as an experience hub, it will offer the same beloved cakes and pastries in a refreshed setting. The brand teased the opening with a simple message: "Something sweet is brewing. See you soon, Obrero!"
The move also consolidates the brand's presence in key urban corridors. Obrero is a bustling area known for its mix of residential and commercial activity, making it an ideal location for a dessert destination. The new store is expected to attract both loyal patrons and new customers seeking premium yet accessible baked goods.
Digos Stays Sweet
As the Davao flagship transitions, the Digos branch at GMall of Digos continues to thrive. Located on the Upper Ground Floor, it remains a go‑to spot for mini cakes, cheesecakes, and full‑sized celebration cakes. The store's steady foot traffic proves that the demand for quality, handcrafted desserts extends well beyond the metropolitan center.
For Digos residents, Sugar Munch is more than a bakery; it is a part of the community's celebrations. The branch will continue to serve families and friends, providing a reliable source of sweetness for every occasion. With over 11 branches across the region, the brand's network remains strong even as it reshapes its flagship presence.
A Menu That Keeps Them Coming Back
The brand's enduring popularity rests on a menu that balances affordability with quality. Mini cakes like the Belgian Truffle and White Chocolate Mousse offer a personal indulgence for just over ₱100. Larger celebration cakes, starting around ₱500, feature rich flavors and customizable designs for weddings, birthdays, and milestones.
Customers can order directly at any branch or call (082) 222 3399 for inquiries and pre‑orders. With a growing social media following and a reputation for consistency, Sugar Munch continues to be a top‑of‑mind choice for Davao Region's dessert lovers.
