Ube powder The purple ingredient your menu is missing
Ube is the Philippines’ beloved purple yam: naturally vibrant, subtly sweet, vanilla-nutty in flavour. It is already trending across specialty cafés in London, California and Berlin. We source and import it straight from trusted Philippine producers, so you get the real colour and the real flavour.
Pricing on request, matched to your volume. No commitment.
100% purple yam★ CoA WITH EVERY BATCH Why cafés are adding ube
Four reasons it earns a spot on the board
Colour that sells itselfA naturally deep purple, no dye needed. It stands out in lattes, cakes and pastry, and it gets photographed and shared before the first sip.
Works across the whole menuOne ingredient, many lines on the board: lattes, cakes, donuts, croissant fillings, ice cream and pancakes.
A flavour they have not tasted yetMatcha and pumpkin spice are on every menu by now. Ube is genuinely new to most European guests, so it gives them a reason to come in and try something.
On-trend, not a fadUbe has years of proven demand in North American specialty coffee and is now gaining momentum in Europe. You are early here, not late.
