“Panahon Mo Na”: Honoring Filipino Mompreneurs at the 4th Gawad Madiskarte Awards

 Behind every small business run by a mother is a daily balancing act, between managing a household, raising children, and building a livelihood.

ZOOTOPIA 2 ROARS TO #1 ON DISNEY+ WITH 32M VIEWS GLOBALLY IN ITS PREMIERE WEEK

 Zootopia 2 is racing ahead on Disney+, hopping to 32M views globally in its first seven days, making it the #1 film on Disney+ during its premiere week. Its arrival on service builds on the enduring popularity of the franchise: together, Zootopia, Zootopia+, and Zootopia 2 have been streamed over 885 million hours globally to date. 

The film’s strong debut on Disney+ follows in its huge theatrical pawprint. It shattered box office records, becoming the highest-grossing animated Motion Picture Association (MPA) release of all time with $1.9 billion worldwide, ranking as the eighth highest-grossing film ever and the #1 domestic release of 2025.

The sequel’s success continues the legacy of the original Zootopia, which captivated fans around the globe and won the Academy Award for Best Animated Feature Film in 2017. Zootopia ranks as the #7 movie on Disney+ of all time and has been one of the most-streamed movies across all platforms in the U.S. for three out of the last six years, according to Nielsen.

The world of Zootopia has expanded beyond the screen as well. In 2023, the Shanghai Disney Resort opened the first Zootopia-themed land, introducing guests to the Mammalian Metropolis and bringing the beloved animal residents of the film to life. Its signature attraction, Zootopia: Hot Pursuit, is the highest-rated attraction at Shanghai Disneyland, with one in four guests stating they came to the park specifically for the land. Leveraging cutting-edge technology, the park also rapidly integrated new content inspired by Zootopia 2, debuting the film’s latest Gazelle song with one of the newest Audio-Animatronics just weeks after the film’s theatrical release. Plus, guests go wild for the food too – over 4.8M Disney Zootopia Pawpsicles (480 tons of ice cream!) have been sold to date. 

The animated feature has also sparked strong fan engagement across consumer products and global retail, igniting viral demand for collectibles, blind boxes, and collaborations with brands such as Pop Mart, Miniso, Tony Moly, and Uniqlo. On DisneyStore.com, the iconic Zootopia carrot pen sold out twice – once at launch and again after restocking.

Fans can jump into the action with Judy and Nick and watch every adventure in the Zootopia Collection on Disney+.

Cloud 9 Crunchies: Experience the Ultimate Nine-Layer Loaded Indulgence

 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.

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.
