What is it?
An ube pastry uses purple yam from the Philippines, usually cooked into sweet ube halaya jam or whipped cream, inside or on top of a flaky or bready dough. Ube has long been used in Filipino desserts such as halo-halo.
In Manila, where the air sits around 32°C and humid, bakeries sell ube pandesal and ensaymada daily. Its bright violet colour has made it a trend in Los Angeles and Hong Kong cafés.
The flavour is gently sweet, earthy and vanilla-like, and the purple filling is soft and creamy.
