Our Verdict
A solid middle-ground extract for bakers who want genuine ube flavor without leaning fully artificial. Pair it with a spoonful of ube halaya when a recipe needs showstopper color as well as taste.
What We Liked
- Made from real ube rather than purely artificial flavoring compounds
- Rounder, more natural purple-yam taste than some of the sharper artificial extracts
- Generous 70 ml bottle lasts through many batches since only a teaspoon is needed per recipe
- Works well in both baking and drinks without an overpowering aftertaste
Drawbacks
- Less shockingly vivid color on its own compared to Butterfly's paste-based extract
- Smaller-batch import brand, so restocks can be slower than mainstream extracts
Key Features
- Size: 70 ml / 2.37 fl oz bottle
- Made from natural ube (purple yam)
- Uses: Baking, lattes, ice cream, halaya color boost
- Imported from the Philippines
