Ube cake is a traditional Filipino dessert using ube, or purple yam (recipe by @chefclaricelam ) 😮‍💨 This beautiful naturally violet-hued sweet potato is used frequently in Filipino cuisine and comes in many other forms like dehydrated powder, frozen pulp, and extract. The cake itself is generally either a chiffon or sponge and made into cupcakes, layered cakes, or Swiss roll style and then filled or smothered with a healthy dose of buttercream.
