Shareable Cakes

Featuring three layers of moist chiffon cake filled with white cream and a golden, mango-filled glaze, it is finished with additional mango chunks and topped with a maraschino cherry.
• Ube Overload Cake – This iconic Filipino confection features a deep purple hue, as it is made with real Philippine ube halaya or purple yam, a native root crop that is a sweeter and more colorful version of taro. It is covered with delectable white cream frosting and bright purple ube cake crumbs.
• Yema Caramel Cake – Soft, moist white chiffon filled and covered with yema (Philippine custard) caramel filling and finished with toasted cashew nuts.
