About Laine & Lola Confection Co. - PONPON Artisan Cookies

Laine & Lola Confection Co. brings to life the love of Filipino food prepared by the women in their family over the last century. Our story begins with “Laine” is Elaine Schober, the company founder & creator of PONPON Artisan Polvoron cookies and “Lola”, Elaine’s inspiration and grandmother who lived to her 100th year (1922- JAN 2022). PONPON Artisan Polvoron was created based on Lola’s original polvoron recipe brought to Canada when she immigrated in 1978. (At that time, Lola being new to the country and unable to find work, cooked authentic Filipino food out of her home for her community to make a living while caring for her grandchildren one of whom is Elaine.) After Lola had immigrated to Canada from the Philippines in 1978, she would traditionally make our family polvoron cookies during the Christmas season. When she turned 90, she decided to pass down all her recipes to me, her grand-daughter. This is when I saw and tasted in her polvoron cookies an opportunity to create a truly unique, gourmet dessert. Working with Lola’s recipe, I built off her original formula and created something new. The results were wonderful and Lola approved, too! Now, I’m delighted to be able to share our PONPONs with you. Every PONPON Artisan Polvoron cookie is made by hand. Though the recipe has evolved over time, the two most important ingredients that Lola never left out are still there in everyone - love and care.Read their story
