Christmas, perhaps no other occasion will better represent happiness, togetherness, and generosity. The flavors and vibe of any Christmas feast have to be memorable. Flavors have to be iconic and satisfying; it should come together in a way that you are able to capture the festive air of the impending holidays.
Because moms are the ones who are inevitably in charge of making all this happen, Mega Prime Quality just made sure that they have everything they need to create an unforgettable Christmas celebration.
In the spirit of empowering moms to be the best home-makers, Mega Prime Quality hosted a holiday workshop, open exclusively to Prime Mom Club members, bloggers, and members of the media.
Santa’s Corner
Hosted at the SM The Block Atrium on November 16, guests started the day off by dropping their kids off at Santa’s Corner where they got their photos taken with Santa. They also let their imaginations run wild at the arts and craft station where they created exciting holiday cards.
The holiday workshop captured Mega Prime Quality’s commitment to helping moms improve their skills as homemakers. Moms were given an opportunity to learn how they can elevate the traditional Christmas feast with Mega Prime’s exclusive programs.
Holiday Recipes with Chef Rosebud Benitez

Celebrity Chef Rosebud Benitez showcased a full spread of holiday treats, from drinks to savory dishes that will be a guaranteed hit for family and friends this Christmas. She also shared with guests how to whip up a new holiday recipe called Vegetable Pasta with Mega Prime Pieces and Stems Mushroom and Mega Prime Green Peas.
