The sixth chapter in our exploratory halo halo series is a celebration of ube in many forms. This version explores how one ingredient can transform through textures, technique, and temperature. Layered with ube halaya (ube jam), two tone housemade ube jellies, taro boba, sweet red bean, corn, plantain, macapuno, ube milk, and crunchy cereals, then topped with flan and a scratchmade ube crinkle cookie.
Watch us make an ube overload halo halo. Song: “Manila” by Hotdog

it’s more fun in the Philippines 🤪
you’ve made it to the end! We’d like to hear any thoughts about ube. Ube is *everywhere* right now, and as a filipino who works with ice cream, I love seeing Filipino flavors get this kind of attention. How do we celebrate the popularity of Filipino ingredients while making sure filipino culture and its people aren’t erased from telling its story?
