As the KMME-MME Program celebrates its 10th year of empowering Filipino entrepreneurs, twenty-one (21) micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) from Bohol proudly joined this milestone by successfully completing the program and graduating as part of the 20th Regional Batch.

The Graduation Ceremony was held on July 31, 2026, at the Golden Prince Hotel & Suites, Cebu City, recognizing the dedication, perseverance, and commitment of the mentees throughout their mentorship journey.

One of the highlights of the celebration was a Fireside Chat featuring Ms. Frances Espinosa, a KMME alumna and KMME Growth Champion Awardee. She shared her entrepreneurial journey, inspiring the graduates through her experiences, challenges, and lessons in building a resilient and growing enterprise.

The Kapatid Mentor Meโ€“Money Market Encounter (KMME-MME) Program is a flagship initiative of the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI), in partnership with the Philippine Center for Entrepreneurship (PCE)-Go Negosyo. Through its comprehensive mentorship program, participating MSMEs gain practical knowledge and skills in entrepreneurial mindset, marketing, operations, human resource management, accounting and finance, taxation, digitalization, and business improvement planning to help them grow sustainable and competitive enterprises.

For the past decade, the KMME-MME Program has empowered thousands of entrepreneurs across the country by strengthening their business capabilities and expanding their access to Mentorship, Money, and Market. DTI-Bohol is proud to celebrate this milestone alongside our 21 graduates and looks forward to their continued growth and success.

Congratulations to our 2026 KMME-MME graduates!

TABLEA STORY: THE ROLE OF THE NIGO

Preserving the Traditional Craft Behind Pure Philippine Cacao ๐Ÿซ๐ŸŒฟ

Before cacao becomes the rich and flavorful tablea we know today, it goes through a careful process shaped by tradition, patience, and generations of knowledge.

One important step in cacao preparation is winnowing โ€” the separation of cacao nibs from their light outer husks.

After the cacao beans are cracked, the nibs and husks must be separated. This is where the nigo, a traditional woven winnowing tray, plays an important role.

With gentle movements and the natural flow of air, the lighter husks are blown away while the heavier cacao nibs remain โ€” ready to be transformed into the smooth, rich chocolate flavors treasured by Filipino families.

More than just a simple tool, the nigo represents the wisdom of our ancestors. It reflects a time when every step of making cacao was done with care, skill, and respect for the craft.

From the hands of farmers to the traditional preparation of tablea, every piece carries a story โ€” a story of heritage, dedication, and the timeless love for Philippine cacao.

โœจ Now you know: behind every cup of traditional sikwate and every piece of tablea is a journey of culture, tradition, and passion.

๐ŸŒฟ Preserve the heritage. Celebrate the craft. Cherish the taste of pure Philippine cacao.

Tablea Story: The Role of the Nigo

Once the beans were cracked, the nibs had to be separated from the husks.

Using a nigo, a traditional woven winnowing tray, the lighter husks were gently blown away while the heavier cacao nibs remained. It was a simple technique perfected through generations.

Tablea Story : Cracked by Hand

After roasting, cacao beans were traditionally cracked one by one by hand. It was a slow and careful process, ensuring that the precious cacao nibs remained whole and ready for grinding.

Tablea Story: The Art of Sangag

Before cacao becomes tablea, it must first be roasted or sangag.

In the old days, Boholanos roasted cacao beans in a con, a clay pot placed over a wood fire.

With constant stirring, the beans slowly released their rich aroma, filling the home with the unmistakable scent of chocolate.

๐Ÿซ Tablea Stories: Molinillo

This is a traditional wooden whisk used to create the rich, frothy texture of authentic hot chocolate.

Twirled between the palms, it blends pure tablea and hot water into a smooth, velvety sikwate while bringing out the deep aroma and flavor of cacao.

More than just a kitchen tool, the molinillo represents centuries of chocolate-making tradition and the timeless joy of sharing a warm cup of sikwate.
