Good Shepherd Convent, run by the Good Shepherd Sisters, produces the most famous pasalubong in Baguio — their legendary ube jam, peanut brittle, and strawberry preserves are the gold standard by which all other Baguio pasalubong is judged. The convent sits on a hillside near Mines View Park, and the small retail shop (staffed by volunteers) sells products made on-site by the sisters and their community. The ube jam — thick, creamy, deeply purple — sells out early, and the peanut brittle is universally recognized as the best in the country. If you're doing a pasalubong run in Baguio, Good Shepherd is the first stop on every local's list.
