Nice creative ube (taro) based sweet cups, just right if you've had dinner around the araea and want to have something sweet and not too heavy. He upside down pies re quite tast and worth trying. Wish there was more seating area tho.
I gave them 5 stars the first I tried the upside down pie. I understand how everything is getting pricey - BUT keep the quality and good taste. JUST NOT AS GOOD AS BEFORE.
amazing treats! I love the ube cheesecake, upside down pie, and bread pudding- put the bread pudding in the microwave for a few seconds and it's perfect
So, my wife ordered a pie to picked up at 12pm on a Saturday. I showed up to pick it up and the door was locked and the lights were off. The sign said open and the Google search said they were open. I called and no answer. Will attempt to call later and try to get a refund for the pie. I can understand if the person working was at lunch but generally people put a sign up or something. Weird to say you are open and not be open.
Mood - UBEThis place has been on my radar ever since I saw the pictures, and of course that name. UBE. Now anyone who knows me I love UBE. It is my apart of my food love language. Yes I have a food love language. You can get to my heart through my stomach.Upon entering it is a quaint store. The sign clearly states 1 party at a time. Social distancing efforts are pretty big here. Was greeted. Not in a very friendly sort, just matter of fact. So it made my decisions of what I wanted to buy not a very good experience. I wanted to ask questions but didnt feel I could really do so.So to make it quick and get out of there, I opted for the Ube upside down, Strawberry upside down, Ube bread pudding, and their Ube Oatchata. What stole the show was the Ube upside down. Goodness that crumble and Ube was amazing. I have never tried anything like that before. So good.Interior has 2 seating areas that seem perfect for a great book, and some reflective time. Everything was very clean and pleasing to the eye. Staff wore masks to ensure good ol Covid safety.Would recommend - pricing is high. However the quality of the ingredients are very good. I wish I would have had a better experience with the person behind the counter. Honestly I would have spent more money if it would have been different. Maybe I was just there on the wrong day and def wrong time.
I am no fan of horchata but the ube horchata is my favorite. The ube cheesecake and the ube flan are good too. This is definitely the place to get your ube fix. I will try the pandan options next
This place makes the best Ube everything cakes ?
I miss Frankie Lucy and I'm glad I got the hat. This bakery and drink maker is as good as the previous owners. Fun place to get delicious items.
My friend and I popped into this store late June — and right before they were supposed to close for the day! They were so nice to make us some tasty drinks ?We also picked up a ube upside down pie to-go and I’m still dreaming about it weeks later. Definitely worth a stop if you’re in the area!
I ordered the only vegan options on their menu: The Ube Horchata and The Ube Chia Seed Pudding. Between the both of them, the Horchata was definitely my favorite. It was midly sweet, yummy, and gave me reminiscing memories of middle school where I would always get horchata in the morning with my chicken tamales. I would skip breakfast just to pay for this Mexican goodness.If I ever come back I will get the Horchata non-iced, so I can try it warm. The pudding on the other hand was nothing special for my tastebuds. The texture was gross and the flavors consisted of coconut, chia seeds, but at the same time, invisible. The pudding is not something I would get again.Overall, the delivery process was noncontact and having Ube in liquid form was a yummy 1st taste. I wouldn't be opposed to ordering again. :)
